James PS, KPRDSB<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n&#8220;It was amazing to watch as the students determined ways in which they could leave their opponents with the last remaining piece!&#8230;As a result of the enthusiasm that the game has generated in our school, we have decided to purchase two per class, sharing the cost with our School Community Council.&#8221;<br \/>\n-Erni Valle, Principal, Conant PS, DDSB<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n&#8220;I made the game readily available to members of our Research Institute. A large number of Graduate Students, Post-Doctoral Fellows and Faculty Members enjoyed playing the game. The strategic aspects and the quick pace of the game seemed to &#8220;lock-in&#8221; the attention of the players. We very much enjoyed playing the game and wish you success in bringing the game forward to the public&#8217;s attention.&#8221;<br \/>\n-Dennis E. Bulman, Ph.D., Senior Scientist, The Ottawa Hospital Research Institute University of Ottawa; Assistant Professor, Division of Neurology, University of Ottawa<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n&#8220;I am writing to tell you how impressed I am with your game Tac-Tic-O! I have personally used it with all of my teachers and students over the last 2 years and the more I use it the more impressed I become with its multi faceted uses to reinforce many learning skills in students. When I first started to use it I thought it would be useful to reinforce addition and subtraction facts&#8211;which it does but as I looked at the math curriculum it also was useful to use in all other strands&#8211;probability, data collection, graphing, algebra etc. It is also a tremendous tool for reinforcing social skills in all students in terms of being able to share, play fairly, understanding winning and losing, strategizing on how to win, team play etc.&#8221;<br \/>\n-Earl Bass, Education Specialist Teacher, The Durham Board of Education; Instructor for Additional Qualification Courses for Teachers, University of Toronto &amp; Queen&#8217;s University<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Greg Soave is the inventor of Tac.Tic.O.
