Comic-Con 2018

Can role-playing games and LARPs help reduce or mitigate the effects of childhood bullying? Is it possible to foster social-emotional learning through gaming? How can role playing function as a tool for forming respectful and interconnected learning communities? Check out this panel on using games to help students learn about empathy, conflict negotiation, and creative problem solving (while making sure they learn about history, math, and other school subjects too!). With Scott Stubbe and Ndindi Kitonga (co-founders, Angeles Workshop School), Emily Nguyen-Hoai (teacher, Continuing Development Inc., Child Development Centers), Shawn Crosby (NASA immersive education lecturer), and Noah Sutton-Smolin (student). Moderated by Aaron Vanek (vice-president, The Game Academy).
