Pursuing Ideology with "Statecraft"
Smith, Hayden; Michelsen, Niall
Journal of Political Science Education, v13 n3 p317-332 2017
Utilizing a web-based simulation Statecraft, we explore the relative influence of ideology (realism and idealism) on student behavior and learning. By placing students into ideologically cohesive groups, we are able to demonstrate the effect of their ideology on the goals they pursue and identify the constraints imposed on the system by the behavior of groups as well.
