Planning for Gen Con 2012


I am currently developing specific plans for my presentation at this year's Trade Day at Gen Con 2012. While much of my past work, especially with GAMA, has been spread widely across many kinds of games, my real aim all along has been to promote roleplaying games as educational tools. During the workshop I am planning to discuss the various frameworks I've used or discussed with other teachers and how to implement them in the classroom, library, or homeschool environment. I will also examine the different needs and capabilities of students of various ages, and I will provide some organizing templates for games, plus resource links and possibilities for further discussion.

New, provocative ideas always come from the attendees. Does anyone want to add any meat to these plans? I'd appreciate any feedback.

Have fun!
