Webinar “Game-Based Learning: Leveling Up Student Math Engagement and Growth”
Children love to solve puzzles, discover patterns, and make sense of the world. Support this natural curiosity with game-based learning strategies that foster creative problem-solving, build conceptual understanding, and empower students through play.
During this edWebinar, the presenters will show you how to create a classroom environment where students are excited to play while they remain engaged with math content that sets them on the path to becoming lifelong learners and problem solvers.
Attendees will learn:
- About the research-proven benefits of game-based learning
