Reacting to the Past (RTTP) is an innovative, game-based pedagogy used in college classrooms across multiple disciplines. Begun as a way to teach students about the complex, contested nature of history through immersive simulations of historical events, RTTP offers public historians a fun and effective way to introduce students to the theory and history of public history using role-playing games. In this interactive workshop, participants will participate in mini-games, learn about using RTTP in the classroom, and discover strategies for incorporating RTTP into public programming.
