このクラスは 英語で教えられます。

Students are encouraged to participate in the Weekly Quote and offer their thoughts and share their opinions with other students or the instructor, however this is offered as an icebreaker. (even if they disagree with the author's statement) 

Students will be given a number of tools to use in the aid of their world building, and I will also share several articles on the writing process that I encourage them to read, but there is no assignment required for those. 

Students will also learn the importance of research, and reading more deeply into subjects that are not their expertise, but are required knowledge to portray their fictional world as a plausible, full place, living and breathing on the page. 

Students will learn what types of questions an author must ask, in order to build and grow a character from the beginning of their story until the character becomes something greater (or worse). This class does not simply focus on the building of a hero, but in how that character is defined by his or her path and the interactions the character has with their adversary along the way.  

I offer this class because I am currently working on the last of three novels of historical fiction, and have been an avid reader of Tolkein and a constant game enthusiast for AD&D, and numerous computer games of fantasy genre. I have written for my own worlds, and have acted as a gamemaster for AD&D and Palladium Fantasy RPG for over 20 years.

The best way to achieve this is for the student to share their work with the instructor in order for such an assessment to be made, or at least to receive feedback. I NEVER negatively critique a student's work, only offer them further questions that will assist them in adding to the depth of their fictional place. 
 
One helpful way for the instructor to make any assessment, is if the student participates or comments on the weekly quote. A student can do this by offering his/her thoughts on the conversation builder exercises. These will also prompt conversation between any additional students in the class, as well as with the instructor.
