Interested in learning how to use games in your classroom to engage students 
with curriculum? Join us on September 11th when Emily Treat, Senior Producer at 
Games for Change, will show us how game design activities can be used in the 
classroom for more meaningful learning experiences for your students. 
 
She will give us a guided tour of an open source design software program, with a 
hands-on demonstration of how to quickly introduce features followed by 
activities which demonstrate how game design can be integrated into lesson 
plans. You will be encouraged to follow along in demo and to explore features to 
illustrate simplicity of software. 
 
The session also will outline potential frameworks for using game design for 
introducing, practicing, and reinforcing learning concepts. Emily will include 
tips on how to encourage student exploration while keeping them focused on 
curricular content.  Join Emily to learn how to integrate game design activities 
into your curriculum.
