Like a game, but worth high school online learning credits - HANNAH SAMPSON, Miami Herald
In the spirit of National Treasure and Dan Brown's thrillers, a new history course lets students learn about America's past in the form of an online conspiracy game. In the near future, a corrupt corporation is trying to take over the world. As part of its nefarious plot, Conspiracy Inc. is altering the historic record. High school students can stop the evil plans -- and earn an American history credit -- in Conspiracy Code, a new online course that takes place as a game. The course is available through Florida Virtual School, an Internet-based public school that offers more than 90 courses.
