Overview
About QUEST Connect
QUEST Connect is a gamified approach to social-emotional learning (SEL) built around the CASEL Framework of core SEL competencies. It is designed to give students additional instruction and practice in the skills they develop and apply while playing QUEST.
Teachers use QUEST Connect as extension activities, supplemental content, or as moments for reflection and application of learning during QUEST gameplay.
How It Works
1. Students play QUEST and immerse themselves in a gamified learning experience.
​
2. Students pick Connect modules to deepen their learning and build vital SEL skills that enable them to score higher during QUEST gameplay.
