Event Name:
Tabletop RPGs (Role Playing Games) for Teens Done Virtually

Competency:
Programming

Description:
We will discuss how transitioning to virtual programming can work with tabletop RPGs. There are a variety of options, including a Harry Potter themed RPG that Mary Beth has written and run both in person and virtually. This is good for anyone interested as you do not have to have previous knowledge of, or experience with, tabletop RPGs.
 
Learning Objectives:
  • Community
    • Teens learn to work together and create connections outside their base friend groups.
  •  Creativity
    •  Teens learn to exercise lateral thinking and problem solving.
  •  Learning
    •  Teens learn about social literacy in a lower stress environment.
