Une belle idée:l apprentissage n est pas"quelque chose 'à faire' à quelqu'un"mais pensons les contextes que nous offrons aux joueurs. Contraindre pour explorer,se tromper,évoluer...et qui sait ...ressentir de la joie. Avec des exemples concrets.
Thank's for the trip @benbarts
So we will see sessions " up-back-through" like they did with 3rd man. Often the problem is our point of view about learning. I share you the reflexion of Ben bartlett about this. Which experiences we should offer to our players ?
