Class Experience

Welcome to the world below the Drifting City. This is an ongoing class for Dungeons and Dragons. Using 5th edition rules, students will be introduced to a world where their critical thinking, problem solving, social communication, teamwork, and imagination will be put to the challeng. 

Students do not need firsthand knowledge of 5th edition rules for Dungeons and Dragons. It is not a barrier to entry. Students can learn as they engage with other students and myself in this class. 

The students will challenge the world, and work together to overcome puzzles, monsters, and social situations. 

Communications will be done via zoom. Sometimes situations might require more visuals beyond theater of the mind. That will be done via owl bear rodeo, a website designed have player visuals for everyone to see and interact with. Other times, visuals will come from a prepared diorama display.

Learning Goals

Students will be tasked with situations, where they can attempt to resolve them. Students will be encouraged to ask questions, to help develop their critical thinking and problem solving. Asking questions will lead to a clearer picture of the situation, so that they can feel rest assured on how they would like to tackle the problems. They will be encouraged to communicate with each other, developing teamwork, social understanding, and negotiating. While these are the underlying goals, they're disguised under the goal of "fun".

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Themes include fantasy elements. In game problem solving can have many forms, including in-game violence.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! Hi! Greetings! Konnichiwa! Carne Asada. Wait. No.
Let's rewind. Hello, I'm a miniature painter, proponent of tabletop rpgs, and purveyor of social tabletop boardgames. 

I have a bachelors of arts in... the arts. I have spent 5 years in Japan teaching high school students English, so I have a master understanding of secret sleeping techniques in the classroom. After my tenor at a high school, I spent an additional 2 years teaching in Japan, students as old as 5 years, and students as young as 65 years English.

I teach classes on being a dungeon master/game master(DM/GM) for tabletop rpgs. I believe that learning how to be a DM can help kids learn a plethora of life skills that they can carry with them into the real world, not just the table setting. Team work, out of the box thinking, fairplay, social etiquette, social contracts, and negotiations.

I have DMed for over 9 years, with players ranging from 17-50 years of age. With some players being pharmacists, software engineers, military reserve, teachers, artists, etc. They have one thing in common. They want to have fun. I will teach you the skills to let them have fun, and I will help you teach your players the fear, of a simple smile from you.
