To respond to both of these issues, you will complete Module Participation activities throughout the semester that both
This will also, hopefully, prevent as much procrastination as there otherwise might be. Hopefully. (I say this in regards to myself.)
Throughout the semester, you will be working on designing a meaningful game, which you will ultimately submit as your final project
I am beyond excited at this prospect, probably because I already have a game idea in mind I thought of years ago and have never found the time to bring into existence. I believe it should already work for the assignment details as the idea currently exists, but obviously I'll be sure to read about the assignment fully before determining this and ask questions as necessary to ensure I do things correctly.
This course examines video, board, and roleplaying games as activities that involve literacy practices.
I wonder already just how unique my experience might be for this class. I love the concept already, but I really am curious how my past with literacy will play into the aspects of literacy we cover. I was originally an education major in Undergrad for almost two years, worked a major literacy event for the public schools in the area, and made a presentation board on literacy in art for a teaching convention, so I have some very direct exposure to how schools tend to go about literacy.
