Official Description:
------
Quests from the Infinite Staircase embraces the magic of the most beloved Dungeons & Dragons adventures of all time. Your journey begins in the Infinite Staircase, a dreamlike expanse with doors leading to fantastical worlds, where you’ll meet Nafas, a noble genie who fulfills wishes with the help of valiant heroes—like you! As you explore what lies beyond each door, embark on timeless adventures and make memorable moments with your party. This handpicked collection contains 6 remastered first edition adventures, complete with striking settings and a lovable cast of characters. These unforgettable quests can be run individually or as a delightful campaign that takes characters from level 1 to 13.


------

Dungeons and Dragons is is collaborative storytelling game. It is a game of vast possibilities where you learn to think carefully, to plan, to strategize, to persuade, to resolve conflict, and so much more, all while exploring memorable locales, meeting fascinating NPCs, and defeating truly frightening enemies.

This course will give students a great deal of experience in the details, rules, and mechanics of Dungeons and Dragons. Students will also grow close with the other students they are adventuring with and learn to better communicate, work together, and treat one another with respect while collaborating to solve puzzles, fight enemies, and tell a great story.

Please note that this is an ongoing course as it is impossible to give a specific number of meetings because that depends how the story develops in the hands of the students. Compared to other campaigns, though, this is considered a long campaign (meaning likely 8+ months). If you must leave at some point, please don't worry about your fellow classmates. We will exit your character and bring in another student in a way that progresses the story.

Note: You must have your video on for these sessions. D&D is a game of community and collaboration, of experiencing, struggling, and laughing together. If you cannot actively participate, please do not enroll. Reach out to me if you have questions about this.

Learning Goals

Due to the vastness of options in Dungeons and Dragons, students will learn and exercise many skills, including the following:
-communication
-strategy and tactics
-storytelling
-critical thinking
-teamwork
-problem solving
-conflict resolution
-resolutions of ethical and moral dilemmas
-math and reading fluency

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Though there is combat in this game, it is described in words, not images. I will also ask and require students to be conscious of their descriptions, avoiding anything grotesque or inhumane. Also, we use dndbeyond.com to track characters and roles in this game. You will need a free account then will have access to all of my purchased materials once you join the campaign.
External Resources
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Sources
To prepare and run this course, I will use my experience and knowledge of "The Player's Handbook", "The Dungeon Master's Guide", "The Monster Manual", the module "Quests from the Infinite Staircase," and many, many more resources.
