Time to read: 1 minutes

Apparently, we’re not the only people thinking about connections between board games and language learning. In her Sunday Morning interview with Tim Clare, the CBC’s Nora Young learns more about the history of board games, the power of role-playing, and the influence of colonialism on the spread of board games around the world.  Clare also mentions a newly released game called “Out of Sorts” that requires players to organize an alien’s book collection based only on cards written in the alien’s language.
