Bad Credit Hotel

Posted at 8:21 pm under social studies

The Bad Credit Hotel is an online video game just released by the U.S. Treasury Department to help young people learn about “the basics of maintaining good credit.”

It’s reasonably engaging, and all the text has audio support. Some of the vocabulary, though, is a little high for Intermediate English Language Learners, and the visuals don’t providing any substantial support. Nevertheless, much of it would still be accessible.

I’ve placed the link on my website under Money.

If you’re interested in this site, you might find both The Best Sites For Learning Economics & Practical Money Skills and The Best Sites For Students To Create Budgets useful.
