Media Coverage:

“Argubot Academy is significant because it addresses a part of school curriculum that few games have tried to tackle: argumentation, logic, and reasoned thinking. … one of the impressive things about Argubot Academy is that it takes a multidisciplinary approach. It grounds ELA proficiencies in a STEM based narrative setting. ... So often we forget that the purpose of education is not only to make workers who contribute to the economy, but also, to make citizens that contribute to making a better civilization.” -- Forbes

“Engrossing missions feature imaginative STEM-themed issues. Meanwhile, its exciting to discover that the game rewards users for making strong arguments -- not for picking a particular "correct" position. By teaching ELA standards through a STEM-themed storyline, the game is fundamentally interdisciplinary in all the right ways. Showing students how these skills bridge disciplines is a critical lesson, and that point is deftly delivered.” -- Common Sense Media
