In this class, students will develop a setting for their own fantasy or science fiction stories. This setting could be for stories the student will write on their own, or it could be a setting for a tabletop roleplaying game such as Dungeons & Dragons. We will take a structured, purpose-driven approach to building settings for stories. We will build settings at three levels: world-as-a-whole, region, and locality. At each level, I will ask students a set of questions about their settings and encourage students to think about and discuss their answers for their settings. Throughout the class, I will encourage students to share their settings and ideas and provide supportive feedback to each other. During the last class, each student will have an opportunity to present their setting to the rest of the class. I will provide formal written feedback for each presentation and make suggestions for next steps for each student's settings.
學習目標
Students will learn how to create fantasy and science fiction settings for a story.
教學大綱
6 課程
超過 2 週課 1:
Introduction and Narrative Purpose
We will introduce the class and class expectations and discuss the golden rules of world building: 1) Have fun! and 2) Build with a purpose. The teacher will also share the presentation template for the final class. Students will then discuss and decide on what types of stories they would like to tell in their world. Finally, we will discuss the importance of world building for the world as a whole, for the region where stories are set, and for the locality where stories are set.

課 2:
World as a Whole
Students will develop the backdrop for their world as a whole. This includes deciding on the name that people in the world use for the world, how the physical laws in their world might be different from the physical laws in our world, whether the world has any large empires or other groups that affect people everywhere, how interconnected different parts of the world are, and whether any global events have happened recently.

Students will decide on a name for their region, develop the region's geography, decide on important nations or groups for the region, identify the major beliefs and philosophies of the people in the region, and make a rough map of the region.

教師專業知識和證書
My greatest experience in creating worlds has been through running tabletop roleplaying games such as Dungeons & Dragons, which I have been doing for about 35 years. I value imagination and creativity as things we need to lead fulfilling lives and to make our own world a better place to live in.
