October 29, 2018, Las Vegas, Nevada – Education Revolution, LLC, the creator of the award-winning Socrates Learning Platform, today announced the release of its newest virtual collectible card pack series: the “President Cards”.  This new card pack series includes U.S. Presidents spanning 229 years starting with George Washington (1789-1797) through to the current 45th President, President Donald J. Trump. The series is designed to educate children about the United States political history and is the first of many upcoming card packs combining educational content with the fun of card collecting.

“We are excited to release this new Presidents’ Card series as additional educational and entertaining content for kids using Socrates,” stated Dr. Ralph Thomas, Education Revolution’s President & Chief Technology Officer. “The collectible element of these cards encourages kids to learn more so they can obtain more packs and complete their collections.”

“This card set is consistent with our core values of combining learning with fun content,” stated Brian G. Rosenberg, Education Revolution’s Chief Executive Officer. “Collecting the American Presidents while learning about their impact on our history will be informative and fun.  It will also encourage them to ask questions about these important historical figures.”

Each President Card contains information about the President including birthdate, location, and term served.  In addition, each card contains fun and interesting facts about each President. Cards are found in collectible card packs, which can be purchased using tickets earned by answering educational questions within Socrates. Cards are at different levels of rarity and children will have to learn more to complete their set.

In addition to the Presidents, the series also includes four Great Americans whom are pictured on U.S. currency but did not serve as President. They include: Andrew Hamilton (appears on the $10 bill, first Secretary of the Treasury, 1789-1795), Benjamin Franklin ($100 bill, best known as one of the Founding Fathers who drafted the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States), Sacagawea ($1 coin, Sacagawea was a Shoshone interpreter best known for being the only woman on the Lewis and Clark Expedition into the American West) and Susan B.
