Building Creative Communities: Storytelling Games
For the Pratt Center for Teaching & Learning’s 2022 Fall Forum, I led a workshop titled “Building Creative Communities.”
Responding to the Forum’s theme of “Building Futures of Sustainable Presence,” I engaged participants in exploring ways of building diverse creative communities centered on equitable collaborative storytelling. Examining the history and design practices of tabletop roleplaying games, I looked for ways beyond “gamifying the classroom” to accomplish my pedagogical goals through narrative play.
The Zoom-based workshop concluded with a playthrough of my short TTRPG, Ball of the Wild.
