What games did you play outside with your friends growing up? What did you learn? On this episode, Coach shares his thoughts on the reason why we decrease play (the increase of professional youth sport programs and how it decreases play and local community cohesiveness) and how we believe play takes away from academics.
He ends the episode with quotes that support the need for play in young people's lives; a safe way for them to learn important skills as well as a hedge against future mental health issues.
Episode Four in the Disconnect from Tech Series
Coach will be conducting a session on Non Digital Games in the the Classroom for the NJAMLE (New Jersey Association of Middle Level Educators) Conference in mid March 2024. The next few podcasts will be expansions of some of the ideas he will be sharing.
