Class Experience

The mists have parted, revealing the grim visage of Barovia. Bleak, gray, and foreboding, this land looms before you, a realm where escape seems but a distant dream. Thrust into this desolate landscape against your will, you find yourself surrounded by adversaries at every turn. In this realm of despair, the question looms: is any place safe? Can you ever find a way out, or will Barovia become your eternal resting place?

Prepare for an experience that will send shivers down your spine:
🤯 Animated maps bring the world to life
🔊 Dope sound effects draw you into the atmosphere
🎭 Deep role-playing opportunities to explore your character
🦇 A setting filled with Gothic horror to keep you on edge

As your guide, I will:

* Set the scene to draw you into the heart of the story
* Craft a narrative that grips you from start to finish
* Bring non-player characters to life with vivid detail

Immerse you fully in the world of Barovia, ensuring an unforgettable adventure. Are you ready to face the challenges that await in this land of shadows? The journey will be perilous, but the story will be yours to shape. Step into Barovia, if you dare.

When rules are unclear, they will be further explained so that any loose ends are tied up.

Week of August 8th: We create characters together. Rules are introduced and explained.

Week of August 15th The learners start their exploration and enter Barovia.

Week of August 22nd: The learners learn legends about different adventure site, and decide which adventure site to explore first.

Week of August 29th: The learners select another adventure site to explore.

This class is perfectly suited for an Ongoing class as it is structured as a Sandbox.. The area has a number of adventure sites that the learners can explore, but the learners decide in which order to explore the adventure sites. Each is a self-contained adventure, so a learner who joins for Session 3 will be able to join without having experienced the first few sessions. Also, if a learner attends Session 1, but not Session 2, it is assumed that their character will be at the tavern nearby, which functions like a base of operations, making it easy to join or leave the adventures.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Doctoral Degree from University of Alberta
I teach social studies and role-playing games. I have 35 years of experience as a Game-master of table-top roleplaying games and Live-Action Roleplay organizer and facilitator for people of ages 7+. I used that experience in my teaching, pioneering the use of games and simulations to help my students understand government, economics and social and cultural processes. 

My key principle for teaching is that students learn by doing and experiencing the subject matter. Students in my classes can thus expect a lot of playing games, regardless of content, because it is fun but also because we learn better together that way.

When I'm not teaching I...play more games because...let's face it, I'm a big geek.
