Workshops

Survival is easy to play and fun at all levels and you do not need training to play it or lead a group as moderator. Playing Survival is fun not because of the message about the environment, but because of the social aspects of the game. That is a big advantage if you play with adolescents. A lot of learning takes place but the game just does not seem to be an educational activity. Nevertheless, if you really get into it, the message of the consequences of human actions can be complicated. A well informed moderator can increase the educational impact of the game tremendously and in multiple directions while not reducing the fun factor for the players.

In short, I offer workshops for teachers or group leaders to be more efficient moderators.You know ... Meet the inventor of the game, immediately receive answers to questions you might have, play a few rounds to get the hang of it, have a blast while participating rather than moderating, vote your colleagues off the planet, etc.

All you need is 2 hours of time, around 20 people (teachers and/or students), a room large enough to fit all, and me.

Please contact me if you are interested. If you are located in Vermont, North of Morrisville, I will offer the workshop for free. If not - we should talk.
