D&D in the Classroom
Dungeons & Dragons in the classroom: learning through adventure
Dungeons & Dragons is more than just a game. It is a powerful educational tool that motivates pupils to learn. With our approach, schools discover how role-playing can contribute to language skills, numeracy, social skills and creativity.
What do pupils learn through D&D?
- Language skills: Describing situations, negotiating and practising new words (also ideal for NT2).
- Collaboration: Making compromises, consulting and persuading each other, communicating better and building self-confidence.
- Maths & logical thinking: Estimating distances, reading dice, planning strategies and solving puzzles.
- Creativity: Inventing characters, developing stories and coming up with original solutions.
For teachers
We help not only students, but also teachers.
In our workshops, you will learn how to use D&D in the classroom:
- we explain the basic rules and storytelling,
- give practical tips on how to tailor the game to your learning objectives,
- provide ready-made materials such as sample characters and mini-adventures.
Even without prior knowledge, you can confidently get started with your class after a workshop.
Building more together
We believe that the possibilities of Dungeons & Dragons in education are even greater. That is why we invite teachers and other Dungeon Masters to contribute their ideas:
- In which subjects can D&D play a role?
- At what age does it work best?
- What other learning objectives can be supported?
This section is non-profit: our focus is currently on research, collaboration and teacher training. Running sessions during school hours is less straightforward (due to our availability), but we are happy to build this project together, step by step.
