In this episode Josh brought up a discussion topic that was the focus of the entire show, how do we go about &quot;teaching and learning games?&quot; Given our backgrounds in education we easily could have kept talking about this but had to cut ourselves off but it was a lot of fun to have this personal conversation in an effort of sharing our perspectives and experiences. In addition, we also dive into game design choices such as intro games, recommended first plays, and campaign/legacy systems as a method of the game trying to be the teacher.  



We hope that you enjoy this episode, and more importantly find it helpful to you and your game group. 



As Josh mentioned several times, we would love to hear from you about what you have seen that has worked well or not so well. Please email those suggestions to us at Boardgameimpact@gmail.com.
