Brief description of the activity\/assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students learn to advocate for a cause they care about, using create “digital choose-your-own-adventure games”.
Details of the 5 phase project here: https:\/\/diglit.creativitycourse.org\/class-resources\/assignments-and-activities\/digital-narrative-games\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Students explore and reflect on existing games (commercial\/professionally made and games by other students from previous semesters)<\/li>
  2. Students conduct research about the topic they plan to create their game on<\/li>
  3. Students prototype their game non-digitally<\/li>
  4. Students create a digital first draft of their game and present and get feedback from colleagues<\/li>
  5. Students revise their game and reflect on the process.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Ways to assess student work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Summative<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Please include a rubric here if it’s a graded assessment or learning activity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I co-develop the rubric with my students based on what they’ve seen in professionally-made games and student-created games – so just before they do their first draft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sample\/model explanation for students about how this activity develops their digital literacies (100 words)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This is a project where you will strengthen your creative digital know-how, “hacking” simple tools like Google Slides or Google forms to create a digital narrative game to raise awareness or advocate for a topic you are passionate about<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Average preparation time for faculty (in minutes)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you use the material here: https:\/\/diglit.creativitycourse.org\/class-resources\/assignments-and-activities\/digital-narrative-games\/ it would take about 15-60 minutes of class time, depending on what you do during class time and what you ask students to do on their own<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Average time it takes students to complete this activity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This varies greatly. It would take at least 5 hours and up to 10-15 hours depending on how much time and effort students exert, and how rigorously you grade them on quality of their research, or the professional look and feel of their game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Necessary tools\/technologies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Google Slides or Forms (student choice) or Inklewriter (specific to developing such games, but not recommended as it will be less relevant beyond the course)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
