Literacy & Numeracy:
D&D is a collaborative storytelling adventure game
structured around dice rolling and modifiers to simulate
chance, gameplay sees participants using addition,
subtraction, multiplication, division, probabilities and even
geometry to strategise and effectively emulate laws of physics
and magic. This makes D&D a fitting tool in any parent's
or educator's toolbox when it comes to teaching creative
writing, maths, and even drama.
Critical Thinking & Problem Solving:
D&D often encourages Game Masters and players alike to
create and solve puzzles using out of the box thinking and
logical reasoning thus promoting growth in these areas, often
without the participants even being aware of it.
Social Development & Teamwork:
Teamwork is essential in Dungeons and Dragons as the players
are often forced to work together in order to overcome
powerful enemies, unravel intricate plots or talk their way
out of precarious situations. Through these trials the players
need to learn to work as a team and communicate effectively in
order to overcome the often tedious odds presented to them.
Most participants find value in this joint effort as it allows
them to hone their communication skills and utilise the
strengths of others. During gameplay players are also often
presented with confronting social scenarios and/or moral
quandries, providing individuals with scenarios that allow
them to empathise with characters and/or debate moral
reasoning with each other.
