The activity will adopt the “Electricity Strategy Game,” developed by Severin Borenstein at UC Berkeley. Most game playing will occur via internet, once a day, between Monday and Friday. Session I is an introductory session to the topics and game; Session II is a debriefing where game winners will be announced and questions will be addressed.
