The VOXPOP website gives teachers the opportunity to use role-play-based simulations to explore essential events from American history. With almost all preparation and materials included in the VOXPOP site, you can involve your class in an active examination of Shay's Rebellion, the Nullification Crisis, the Dorr Rebellion, the New Deal, the Pullman Strike, and the response to the AIDS epidemic. VOXPOP will take care of assigning students to different stakeholder roles, provide all the materials for understanding basic content and perspectives, and help you facilitate students' analysis and discussion of how the United States evolved. They even offer suggestions for how you might use it during a 60-minute class or split it between two periods.

Though the simulations don't "cover" all the content related to each of these formative moments in American history, you can use the simulations to have each student learn essential content through active participation and analysis of competing ideas.
