If It Were My Home Animated interactive of the history of the Atlantic slave trade. Source: slavevoyages.org For the full interactive version, use a larger device. Interactive by Andrew Kahn. Usually, when we say “American slavery” or the “American slave trade,” we mean the American colonies or, later, the United States. This interactive, designed and built by Slate’s Andrew Kahn, gives you a sense of the scale of the trans-Atlantic slave trade across time, as well as the flow of transport and eventual destinations. History of American Slavery, Ep 2: The Atlantic slave trade during its heyday and the remarkable life of Olaudah Equiano. There are a few trends worth noting. In the 1700s, however, Spanish transport diminishes and is replaced (and exceeded) by British, French, Dutch, and—by the end of the century—American activity. In the final decades of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, Portugal reclaims its status as the leading slavers, sending 1.3 million people to the Western Hemisphere, and mostly to Brazil.

Three Geography Games Based on Google Maps and Google Earth One of the things that I emphasize to students before they embark on any kind of research or problem-solving task is to take a good long look at the information that they already have before them. To that end, I'll often request that they construct a list of what they know about a topic or problem before they begin to search. Playing one of the following three Google Maps-based games is a fun way to reinforce the concept of using prior knowledge and observations. GeoGuessr is an addictive geography game that is based on the Google Maps Street View imagery. Place Spotting is a website of geographic riddles. Where in the World?

Speedfarming 2050, le jeu Cliquez sur l’image pour jouer ! En 2050, 80% de la population mondiale résidera en ville. D’ici là, son nombre aura augmenté de 3 milliards, portant à 9 milliards le nombre total de bouches à nourrir. Il faudra mettre en culture 10 milliards d'hectares de terres pour répondre aux besoins mondiaux en nourriture. Alors qu’aujourd’hui 80% de la surface utilisable est déjà mise à contribution, se pose la question de la viabilité du modèle agricole actuel. Le concept de Vertical Farming n’est pas celui de l’expansion horizontale de l’agriculture, mais celui de son expansion verticale en s’interdisant le recours à la chimie destructrice des sols propre à l’agriculture traditionnelle pour lui substituer celle de l’agriculture hors sol. Speed Farming 2050 est un jeu de gestion d’une ferme verticale pour comprendre et sensibiliser au développement de nouvelles technologies visant à rendre durable l’habitat urbain.
