This course immerses students in the world of Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) through participation in a collaborative, story-driven campaign. Students will create and develop unique characters while learning the fundamentals of role-playing, storytelling, teamwork, and strategic decision-making. Guided by an instructor acting as the Dungeon Master, students will navigate quests, solve problems, engage in combat, and shape the narrative through their choices. The course emphasizes creativity, communication, critical thinking, and collaboration, as students work together to overcome challenges and build a shared story in a structured and engaging environment.
The final project can include: A Character Portfolio – A detailed character sheet including backstory, abilities, development, and progression throughout the campaign. A Campaign Journal – A written or creative record of key events, decisions, and story arcs experienced during gameplay. A World-Building or Quest Design Project – A student-created quest, setting, or storyline inspired by the campaign. A Reflection on Strategy and Teamwork – A summary of how the student contributed to the group, solved problems, and evolved as a player.
