This community has gone through a journey — gamification & engagement, retention, and now thriving communities. Each pivot taught us something important. Now it’s time to bring it all together under one clear identity, which we were discussing a few weeks ago: 👉 The Game of Skool Wait, but why? At its core, everything we’ve explored has been about playing the game smarter: - Using gamification to drive engagement. - Growing communities that thrive. - Making Skool itself work for you — increasing activity, discoverability, results. This is not just a name change. It’s a reset of our standards and our focus: - Clearer conversations. - More practical strategies. - A community where showing up and contributing truly matters. Welcome to The Game of Skool. Let’s play it well.

I know some people work regardless of the day of the week, some just chill out on weekends, and others have occasional (or regular) great plans. Where do you stand on this?

I am excited to be back in the classroom. I am constantly looking for new ways to engage my high school level learners, and using gaming or gamification is a great tool to expand upon. I have used things in the past like Classcraft, and my Game Design course, but now I'm actively looking for simulation games to help me reach my Applications of Algebra and Geometry students. We played the Oregon Trail on Desmos a few weeks ago, and used the old-school game as a way to practice percent changes before a quiz. I'd like to say that math practice really helped because students scored 75% or above across the board on that quiz.

I am currently starting a new round of Baldurs Gate 3. It is my favourite game so far and also great for multiplayer. The best part is that you can talk to all the animals. (They got individual voice actors) They really earned their place for the best game of the year in 2023. What are you currently playing? If you are not playing anything, let me know about your favourite game.
