JASS 405: Storytelling, Experiments, and Play

Course Description

The concept of play involves engaging in an activity for enjoyment and discovery rather than to achieve a specific goal. The course builds on that approach by creating a space where students can safely take creative and technological risks as they develop their voices and styles as storytellers.
It introduces students to alternative approaches to storytelling and provides a sandbox for students to experiment with new and innovative ways to express themselves creatively. Students will have the opportunity to use a variety of media tools, from audio and video to the written word to apps, and will work both independently and collaboratively to develop their portfolios of creative work.
