I really wish they included vault access in the academic pass.
Teachers and students are asking those who could benefit most from the content.
Yes, they put a lot of great stuff on YouTube but there are a lot of great and useful talks that aren't.
That's horribly disappointing.

Excited to finally get is all in one place that is our place for a bit instead of trying to elbow out space in the common areas.
Also looking for any of my #ttrpg / #rpg folks to talk shop and maybe check out some prototypes.
Session description for the first k12 education focused session at GDC.
#GDC is here!
It still doesn't feel real that after years of trying, I finally got a k12 and Youth Ed focused session on the program.
For a long time I have tried to time up my colleagues, furiously badge-checking, hours in the networking app.

Fast forward to today, I'm teaching game dev full time to about 150ish students a year and doing a pair of GDC roundtables for other k12 game dev teachers in March.
My former students have been working AAA, indies, a bunch of them even made a studio and released a game on steam.
By the time the standards were approved, I had already written everything out in the forms my district/the state wanted. Had it approved by the end of the year and started teaching game development. My district says they could only put it on the schedule if 25 kids signed up. 200 signed up.
I was already teaching. I went to a conference for work and met a guy that was working on the draft standards for game development for my state.
Took a look at them, started writing my curriculum. Linked up with developers, studio heads, academics, anyone that would give me the time of day.
As a Royd sized human...
Are we getting big and tall sizes someday?
I need that Coupe shirt.
Unsolicited Game opinion.
I don't feel qualified to say anything is game of the year.
But #Dispatch absolutely slaps.
An unapologetic game that knows exactly what it is and how it wants to go about it. Some of the best dialogue I've seen in a game.
#aew needs to put in a Women's C2 this year, the division is red hot and has so much depth.
What a level up for Skye and Marina
How the hell is #aew just dropping THAT dynamite on TV for free?
That was a great PPV, let alone a TV episode.
Between this and a pair of High School Roundtables, I am really hoping to get a lot of high school teachers out this year.
Massive for high school programs.
They used to have an "education summit" pass that was a good discount, but got away from it some time ago. This is significantly better as it is a true full pass.
It was very hard for newer teachers to convince their districts to send them.
