Step into the dynamic world of the Ottoman Empire in this immersive 3-day camp! Through a strategic decision-making simulation, learners will explore the rise and expansion of one of history's most powerful empires, taking on the roles of key advisors to Osman I and his successors.

In this camp, learners will gain a deep understanding of the Ottoman Empire’s origins, its expansion strategies, and the critical battles that shaped its history. They will explore the significance of the Janissaries, the empire’s complex social structure, and its military and diplomatic prowess.

The class is structured around interactive strategy sessions, where learners will make crucial decisions that influence the empire's growth and confront the challenges of empire-building.

Each day will conclude with a reflective debrief session, allowing learners to discuss their decisions and the historical outcomes. To wrap up the camp, and if time allows, we'll engage in a thrilling Kahoot quiz to reinforce key concepts and test their newfound knowledge in an exciting and competitive format!

-In this class, active participation plays a crucial role in fostering meaningful engagement and learning. Learners are strongly encouraged to actively contribute to discussions, share their perspectives, and ask questions. Additionally, to promote critical thinking and facilitate in-class interactions, it's important to use the chat feature sparingly. While the chat is suitable for quick questions or clarifications, lengthy answers or discussions are best reserved for our face-to-face interactions.

-It is crucial for learners to be punctual and arrive on time for this class. While late arrivals will be allowed to join and participate from the moment they arrive, it is important to note that due to time constraints, we will not be able to restart simulations or catch up on activities for latecomers. To ensure the smooth progression of the class and maximize the learning experience for all participants, punctuality is strongly encouraged.
