Career Voyages.gov Plays like a Game

My never-ending quest for career sites that integrate some measure of fun for the high school audience is bringing me closer to an ideal find. To my surprise, the United States Secretary of Labor, (the government of all sources) has put together an impressive site that comes close to game-like activity. I'm satisfied that they didn't use the word "play", but as you move around the Career Voyages site, you feel as though you're having fun while simultaneously learning. The vibrant colors grab your attention, and the elements of sound and multimedia keep it. The real test will come in the classroom by those who are soon destined to enter the workforce. I'll keep you posted.
