Role Playing for Learning

This video was made by Donna Brown’s Line 1 English Communications 5C class. The aim was for students to adopt a character role and through discussion make connections between three texts they had studied.

The video has proved to be a valuable resource for a large number of students including some at another college.

New Worlds of Learning

HC in 1352 AD.

This video clip shows how the Toolset from the game Neverwinter Nights can be used to design a 3D world and create an interactive story for players - in this case the 'world' is the Hobart College campus in 1352AD.

Students in the Games Programming and Multimedia classes are currently learning how to create and link game areas through 'doorways' which may be a cave, a gateway, a light portal or a... door. The Toolset has wizards which allows the game designer to set up characters that act out a story. Object, sound effect and environment libraries allow the designer to set the look and mood of each scene.

The Neverwinter Toolset has been used by international educators to create engaging learning environments to teach communication skills and elements of journalism.
