ナルト...失われた年月：クリエイティブ ライティング（冬季キャンプ - 12 ～ 15 歳）

Using developed characters from a popular anime and manga, students will learn to create a short story based on their favorite character. Students will follow the steps of the creative writing process to reach a final draft of their completed short story. Learners should expect to interact with classmates, share ideas, give and receive constructive criticism about their work and that of their peers. Students need to have background knowledge of either the manga or anime to be familiar with the developed characters. Most writing will occur outside of class. Brainstorming, critiques, and readings will occur in class, along with story mapping, plot structure, themes, dialogue, and discussions. Please expect learners to spend at least 4 hours outside of class developing and writing their story. Learners will be evaluated throughout the course for growth rather than a formal assessment at the end of the course.
