Default Re: help me design a poker class for high school

Why not pick out a few poker books that explain all the essentials like how to play, the rules, the math involved, and bankroll considerations and all that jazz the first half. Then have the second half of the class consist of tournaments or cash games...and have the grade depend on how the players performed. Give the students a play money bankroll and a notebook at the table. They can take notes on the hands they play. You could have their grades based on early quizzes/tests in the learning portion, on the play money profit/loss, and a final paper on what they have learned, how they played certain crucial hands, etc. I would definately taken a class like that in high school!
