Can learners be legendary? In games and virtual worlds, we can do what is not possible in real life (NIPRL). Csikszentmihalyi's flow and Vygotsky's zone of proximal development combine in ways that happen infrequently in real life. The opportunity to compete in a Mythic Dungeon International (MDI) Time Trials provide the chance for an extraordinary journey of learning. This is the preliminary report using a duoethnography approach on the origin and learning of the Depletionists as a MDI Team.
Objective:
Participants will learn tools and strategies to be successful learners and virtual team members.
Accessibility: Provide a written script during the presentation.
