Whether by the light of the campfire or the glow of the computer screen, humans have always loved to tell stories. Through games, activities, and short writing prompts, students in this course will get a chance to practice the timeless art of storytelling using digital and analog means. In addition to concepts like story structure, characterization, and world-building, students will also be exposed to a range of stories across time and media that can serve as inspiration for their own narrative projects. Each day, students will have time to apply what they have learned to a story of their own, which they will develop over the course of the week and present on Friday!
