About the Author
Sherina Hume
Sherina Hume is an alumni of the University of North Dakota where she currently contributes as a research assistant. Her racial background of both Anishinaabe and Cherokee heritage contributes to her interests in: tribal justice, victimology, and cybercrime. Ms. Hume was involved with the overall structure of the text, with the selection of illustrations, and with game choices and activities. She played and personally tested each of the games and activities numerous times. As a gamer she is excited how the games within the text work with various styles of learning and assist with an understanding of information in the text. She also is pleased that this text will be cheaper for students and does not contain fluff which allows students to remain focused on the subject matter.
