I'm a high school teacher in Ontario, and a few years ago I bought this game knowing that it would be really easy to use it in the classroom. I have a lot of games that I use, to teach about collaborative storytelling, about genre, and about alternative texts. Games are great for students, in lots of ways, including some I never thought they might be. I have a student with selective mutism--he never says ANYTHING at school. I began the semester playing Parsely, and when we play, he talks. He participates. And later, he was able to give me an oral presentation.
I think this game made that possible. Thank you.
