How to Role-Play: A Live Actual Play with Stories RPG!
Description:
Role-playing games can have a huge impact in education, allowing students agency, promoting SEL gains, and fostering academic mastery. But like any new tool, it’s one thing to read up on a practice, but another one to bring it into the classroom! In this panel, you’ll have front-row seats for a Live Play of the Stories RPG podcast, the role-playing game designed by a teacher to be used in the classroom. The lively cast will model techniques to make a story come to life, engage the audience in making some clutch decisions, and explain how to use digital and physical role-play in any class!
