Great article from #geekwire on the research I did with #foundry10 in partnership with #GameToGrow!

Great timing with the #DnDMovie!

We explored how #SEL (#socialemotionallearning) can be supported by #TTRPG / #DnD / #DungeonsandDragons using skilled facilitation and the ludic space.

We analyzed #TTRPG / #DnD / #DungeonsandDragons sessions to examine how #TTRPGs can support #SEL (#socialemotionallearning ) skills and found that the game space + facilitators allowed youth to practice complex reflection and conflict resolution.
