🌀 Happy #WorldQuantumDay

What’s a complicated concept you’ve seen (or would love to see) explained through a game?

Has any game helped you understand something tough?

Share your thoughts and examples! #LevelUpEDU #gamesineducation

One take. Don’t have time to do these over and over 😅 #slowchat #levelupedu Question of the Day. #gamesineducation

Yes! Incredible worlds were built by collaborative pairs: an arena with code to arm combatants, a maze with 4 different biomes...
This was the final battle in the #MinecraftEDU #Python arena tournament (I was eliminated 1st round;)
#LevelUpEdu #slowchat #gamedesign #gamesineducation #EduSky

I love #MinecraftEDU
My CS1 students are currently creating a #Minecraft game requiring a new skill. From that launch point, I give them a couple of wild examples, and then let them go!
When I tell my students to wow me, they always do!

I hope the resultant narrative in the video makes sense.

Me, Irfan and the staff from Level Zero PLT pose for a photo in front of the presentation screen.

Me with a microphone talking to students sitting on a polished wooden floor with the projection screen behind me.

Me pointing at a student with the list of Omega Librarians character concepts on the screen behind me.

View of all the students sitting on the floor in the hall.

Last Wednesday, I was invited to an school by an education company for a #ttrpg consultation. I ran my Omega Librarians setting using #YearZeroMini for the kids.

Team Radials had to go to Columbus, OH to find a stolen Shakespeare tome! But they crashed their plane in Florida.
