Upcoming convention attendance schedule

[Hawke Robinson]

Greetings,

The Newsletter asked to post our upcoming convention
schedule. I didn't know that was desired, I would have done so
all these years prior if I had known, sorry I missed that previously.

This year, already attended:
April 2015 - Seattle Children's Hospital, Washington State Therapeutic
Recreation Association 16th Annual Conference. This is related, because
I presented on "The Therapeutic & Educational Uses of Role-Playing Games
as Intervention Modalities for Individuals and Groups from the
Therapeutic Recreation Perspective.
Video of presentation here (I think I posted that link back in April).

August 19-23 - WorldCon. Spoke on 3 panels, presented RPG Research
poster on RPGday" for "Super Science Saturday", ran games.


Here is a single page with videos, audio, poster, interviews,
presentations, with all relevant links in one location:

Hope that is helpful. I will continue reading the newsletter, and
respond within context as requested.

I promised my fiance I will not attend more than 4 out-of-area
events per year, so turned down half a dozen other invitations this
year for 2016, otherwise I wouldn't be able to say know, and there would
be far more. :-)

Happy Gaming!

MISSION

1) To clearly establish, through rigorous scientific testing, the
therapeutic and educational effects of all forms of role-playing gaming
(tabletop, live-action, & computer-based) on participants. In addition
to determining the potential relevance of correlated factors,
significant emphasis is focused contributing to the body of causal
research information.

2) Based on established research, using relevant evidence-based and
theory-based approaches, design, develop, and implement intervention
programs using various forms of role-playing games as a therapeutic
and/or educational modality.
