A goblin horde approaches your part of adventurers. Roll for attack!

If the above statement brings back positive memories of your friends, you’re probably a fan of games. If not, you may either a) hate games as much as Jackie or b) benefit from research on improving turn-taking and game-playing abilities. Don’t worry, everyone can learn the basics of playing a game and in this week’s episode, we break out the research instruction manual on just how to support children with a variety of disabilities to do just that. It’s like rolling a natural 20.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
