DESCRIPTION:March 7\, 2024\nAustin Convention Center Room 12ABThe current edtech market is full of products that claim to fulfill lesson plans and make assessment easier for teachers.

We’re excited to talk about how innovators & funders can work together to create a more inclusive edtech ecosystem that inspires real learning.\n 	Medha Tare\, Joan Ganz Cooney Center\, moderator\n 	Joanna Cannon\, Walton Family Foundation\n 	Shayla Cornick\, Digital Promise\n 	Maria Janelli\, Scratch Foundation\nMore information

We will then spend time working on practical features or interventions to help enhance your desired dynamics and reduce the problematic ones. We’ll also look at how you can set and measure outcomes to assess how your game and its community are doing from a player-dynamics lens.TakeawayAttendees will leave knowing how to assess risk for disruptive behavior\, identify healthy behavior for your game\, and measure ROI as well as have a tool for thinking about player dynamics through your game lens\, and potential interventions to try out at their own studios. Intended AudienceGame developers\, designers\, trust and safety professionals\, and anyone interested in increasing prosocial behavior and mitigating disruptive behavior in your game. \n \n\nThe Fair Play Alliance is an organization of over 300 gaming companies from around the world committed to fostering healthy player interactions as a core part of how we make games.\n\n \n\n \n\nLearn more and register to attend GDC
