Games for Change Game Night

Description:

Calling all gamers, game lovers, and game-based pedagogues, and play-curious people. Join Game for Change for a play-based meetup where we will play both analog and digital games with purpose. We will nourish and restore conference energy, learn about Games for Change’s suite of educational programs, and build community with like-minded educators who are looking to unlock the power of games in their teaching practice. This meetup invites attendees to explore the capacity of games as transformative teaching tools at the intersection of learning and impact.
