Long Description:
Turn your classroom into a world of epic quests! This session explores how I transformed an English 101 course into a gamified TTRPG experience. Students chose "classes" like scholars or strategists, joined factions, and tackled quests guided by Merlin, an AI mentor. Using an open-world design with main quests and side missions, I reimagined assignments as adventures, fostering creativity and collaboration.
The TTRPG lens and gamification made research and writing engaging, empowering students to take ownership of their learning while building critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Discover how fantasy-inspired mechanics can transform your teaching and inspire students to see education as a thrilling campaign of growth and discovery.
