It may lack sweat equity, but it’s up there with even the most physically demanding of sports. Esports, the competitive side of video gaming, is exploding. And K-12 schools are buying in because it’s not only fun but also a viable educational tool! A recent edWebinar sponsored by Common Sense Education, “Ready Player One: Esports in K-12,” highlights why esports has taken hold in schools. Research-based evidence affirms its highly positive impact on students’ academic achievement, soft skills, and socio-emotional well-being.
This edWebinar will focus on the why and the how relevant to getting started with esports programs in schools, districts, and/or counties.

In this edWebinar, educational therapist Ezra Werb, M.Ed. shares his strategies for lowering students’ anxiety, raising confidence, and increasing engagement.
