Gamified Learning for AuDHD Adults: Play as a Tool to Decolonize Neurodivegence
January 20 @ January 20 - January 20
10-11:30 AM Pacific
In this age of rapid and overwhelming information, how does one choose what is important to learn? Opportunities to play are opportunities to learn. Play allows us to imagine ourselves in different realities, in different worlds where the rules are different, where we can be different. In these alternate worlds, we can demand more for ourselves. In these worlds, we can identify our needs and build rules and systems to meet our deepest needs. Just as someone imagined the world you see around you right now; the one in which neurodivergent needs go largely umnet – through play, we can imagine a world in which neurodivergent needs are met.
In this call, Dr Douglass will talk about how gaming is a precise way to deliver information to AuDHDers, people who are both Autistic and ADHD.
