Join Gaming and Library Technology Specialist Brian Mayer as he shares over 10 years of experience using games in classrooms and school libraries.

Strong curricular, learning and growth connections are often embedded in many games though they may not always be obvious. Come learn how to dissect game resources, diving deeper than critical thinking and problem solving skills to find the standards support critical for justification of class time.
