Students will learn the skills of diplomacy and national security, and will develop civic knowledge about how the executive branch of the US government handles critical foreign policy situations. Not only will they finish the class with a better understanding of the government, they will also have in-depth knowledge of current events that impact the United States. Through participation in the simulation, students will learn collaboration skills, communication skills, and critical thinking.

I love helping students see the connections in our world. The simulations created by the CFR are realistic and approachable project-based learning. Students find that they continue to see the relevancy of what they learned long after the class ends.
