Ivan Pavlov's description of how animals (and humans) can be trained to respond in a certain way to a particular stimulus, paved the way for a new and objective method of studying animal and human behavior. The object of the game is to train Pavlov's dog to respond to a signal that it will associate with being fed. Choose the right signals with his food and you will become successful; choose the wrong options and the dog will refuse to respond to your signals."
Prisoner of War Middle Link to Nobel Prize.org: Link Help playing the game: Link Online Cost: Free Link to On the Job: Games Developer	Can people behave as they like during times of war? No, they can't. The Geneva Conventions of written rules and articles make some acts unlawful. Nearly all countries in the world have promised to follow these rules by signing up and the Red Cross ensures that these rules are followed. Among the Red Cross's tasks are to visit prisoners of war (POWs) who are protected by the Geneva Conventions, and provide them with assistance. In this game, your mission as a camp commander is to run a prisoner of war camp without violating any human rights. You must follow the humanitarian standards outlined in the Third Geneva Convention (Geneva Convention III). Throughout the game, you will be tested on your knowledge of Geneva Convention III and your skills as camp commander will be evaluated at the end of the game.
