The Learning Games Network (LGN) and FableVision have partnered to create the Game Design Tool Kit (GDTK), a free online resource designed to help teachers use game design more extensively in their curriculum.

Features of the Game Design Toolkit include:
- A lesson plan guide
- Research and design prompts
- Step-by-step instructions
- Discussion guides
Implementation of the GDTK can be condensed into as brief of a span of time as a few days or can be spread out over a quarter or a semester.
