This review game covers a single lesson of the French history curriculum for 4e: “The industrial age in Europe”, from the unit “Europe and the world in the 19th century.” Its questions are about the industrialization of Europe: coal, the steam engine and factories, then new sources of energy, and the changing cities and landscapes.
Each round has 10 questions drawn at random from the lesson: multiple choice, true or false, fill in the blanks, matching, short answers and timelines. After each answer, an explanation recalls what to remember. Hints are free, and you can go back.
The game follows the French national curriculum: 4e is the third year of middle school in France, for students aged 13 to 14. Elsewhere, it works as general knowledge for curious learners of that age. Play it again and you get other questions: it is good practice right after the lesson or before a test.
