Joshi will lead two sessions at Bett UK in January next year on why game-based learning holds the key to social-emotional development and building engaging game-based lesson plans.

Credited as “Top Tech Savvy Student” in India and global teacher at the age of just 16, Joshi got hooked on Minecraft after realising that computer gaming could also be used as an education tool.

“I can’t wait to connect with the global edtech community at the show, and exchange ideas on how videogames can help children learn. I firmly believe that we all have knowledge to spread, and Bett is one of the most inspiring learning networks,” she said.
