Gaming Workshop

Matt King will be offering a workshop on gaming in the writing classroom.  This workshop will address some of the theoretical underpinnings of rhetorical gaming, and it will also offer more practical suggestions for incorporating games into your classes.  Matt’s presentation will draw on his experience with the DWRL’s own Rhetorical Peaks as well as his experience at this summer’s Humanities Gaming Institute at the University of South Carolina.  Not a gamer?  Not a problem.  You don’t need to have a female half-elf avatar named “Bead-Bead” to consider how gaming informs the work we do as rhetoricians and how it can contribute to our pedagogy.
