A role-playing game (RPG) is an interactive storytelling experience in which players collaborate to solve puzzles, find treasure, and defeat monsters in a fictional setting.
The RPG format is a powerful vehicle for promoting creativity, teamwork, and social connection. Nothing unites a group of students, a family, or a professional team like literally slaying a (fictional) dragon! Jason’s style as a game-moderator is to use RPG systems that are streamlined and beginner-friendly, while still offering enough depth to engage experienced players. The goal is to welcome new players into the fun of adventuring, without an intimidating learning curve. Adventurers of all ages can experience the joy of exploration and discovery by playing make-believe |

The funny thing is that [my students] have not even caught on to this being SEL. They are stating sentences like, "Our group is using active listening, and it works." "I feel like our group overpowers people's opinions. How can we change that?" |
