Curricular Toolkit for Cantor's World

Description

Cantor’s World is a game, designed to learn about the Inclusive Wealth Index (IWI) and how it complements other indices. In the game, players experiment with policy choices and experience firsthand the tug-of-war between short-term results and long-term sustainability.

This project focused on creating curricular resources to support the adoption of Cantor’s World in by teachers, professors, and policymakers. This includes a detailed 8-part curriculum-guide, a facilitator's guide, and a player's guide.
