@nowhesobs @JB_Arrington @TelepresenceLen @broderick We think many teachers do but aren't given enough support.

Schools don't get enough funding. And teachers aren't paid enough. And too often they wind up paying for things out of their own pockets.

Wow! We are excited to share that 'Culture Overlord' is a #G4C2022 Awards Finalist for Best Learning Game!

🧡Congratulations to all finalists!

We need more examples of healthy functioning relationships in games and media in general (and models of healthy single hood) - thoughts while watching #LifeLovePAX

[Dr. Krista-Lee/GamerAnthro/馬琳 @GamerAnthro]

@crecente talking about the regionalism in the US- this is why it is so problematic to speak broadly about “America” in general - this is a big place and the regional edu is not the same across the board #LifeLovePAX

[Dr. Krista-Lee/GamerAnthro/馬琳 @GamerAnthro]

@stopTDV It’s so true! I am working up an article right now about increases engagement in my large class after moving to using games via #twitch the difference was night and day!

@prettynicepilot ►Make sure to meet Dotter *before* Chapter3!

If you do, the fish should be easy to find during the "Treasure Hunt"... & then listen for sounds indicating a hungry Dotter.

Let us know if you need more info & thanks for playing!
