Announcements for February and March 2024!

 Hello friends!   This blog entry is fairly short, but since I had several upcoming appearances, I thought I would put them all in one announcement.

Last weekend, I had the good fortune to virtually meet Melody McAllister and be her guest on the Growth Over Grades podcast, produced by SpacesEDU.   The focus of our talk was on game-based learning -- in particular, tabletop role-playing games in education, and KyEdRPG!  The 41 minute episode went live on February 29; the link to the podcast on Spotify is here, plus you can watch it on YouTube.


TTRPGs in education continue for today's theme.  Next up, I'll be presenting at the annual international industry convention for game publishers and gameshop owners, the GAMA EXPO, coming to Louisville on March 3-7.   My session is "Teaching with TTRPGs: How Publishers and Hobby Shops Can Help."  I'll be presenting on the morning of Tuesday, March 5.  (The conference can only be attended by GAMA members; no general public is allowed.) This is the first of three years that GAMA will be in Louisville, and I'm excited and proud that our city is hosting this prestigious event -- especially in the year of the 50th anniversary of Dungeons & Dragons!


The last announcement:  I'll be presenting at KySTE (March 13-15), also in Louisville.  My session is "Dungeons, Dragons, and Digital Tools: Tabletop Role-Playing Games in Schools & Classrooms" and it will be on Wednesday afternoon, March 13.   I hope to see old friends and make new ones!


Thank you to Melody, GAMA and KySTE for the opportunities to share with, and learn from, others!

Update 3/3/24:  The links for the Growth to Grades podcast were added once the episode went live on February 29.
