A promotional graphic for the Digital Promise #LevelUpEDU Chat. The topic is 'Play Together, Learn Together,' and the chat takes place at 7 PM ET tonight. The background features a pixelated, retro gaming aesthetic with a dark blue sky and a grid pattern. A speech bubble on the left says 'Join us at 7 PM ET tonight!' Below, two illustrated avatars represent the moderators: Patt Dennis (@edtechwithpatt.bsky.social) and Kelly McNeil (@edugamergal.bsky.social). Pixelated hearts in the top left corner add to the gaming theme.
I'm super excited to be co-hosting tonight with the amazing @edtechwithpatt.bsky.social ! We met online, we've played Lego Fortnite and we keep collaborating!! We play together and we learn together! #LevelUpEDU
A4: I use this concept with my son. A lesson in temper control. He tells me I don't understand what it's like to lose at a game nowadays and get upset/mad, but I lost at Mario like crazy, and let's not mention Zelda. That is learning temper control and breathing to relax.

I was a Zelda fan girl in my early gamer girl days #LevelUpEDU
I totally agree! I notice that students have trouble with traditional communication, and I think games are good common ground to have them think individually and then bring their ideas together.
Omg no! There are amazing GBL PDs out there, just about finding the right community to do so #LevelUpEDU
A3 - I was in a PD that involved a game and it was a disaster, honestly, because the game took so long that it took up half the time for the next presenter, and we really didn't learn anything. I wish I had a good story. #LevelUpEDU
A3. I think D&D experiences are my fave! Iโve had two this past year. One with educators at ISTE that @stayplayingnick.com and I developed and led. Another was a team building activity I created with a slide deck and built in some logic model work objectives, trying to make it more fun #LevelUpEDU
omg I LOVE escape rooms! I need to see the ones you're doing with your doctoral department!! #LevelUpEDU
I agree! Placing learners in the process of the game development helps gives a different perspective in designing a student friendly game. #LevelUpEDU
Hi Mashfiq! Yes, Minecraft EDU had to make it up there! Honestly, a lot of the work you do with you students inspired me to dive in! I was in a G4C cohort with you when I first was getting into GBL! #LevelUpEDU
They are basic Escape Rooms #LevelUpEDU
