COLLEGE COURSES

PLAY

Students research their favorite games and use the framework to create reimagined experiences inspired by the nature of the games. Can you imagine what school would be like if the campus became a giant version of your favorite video game or board game? Students could play a game of hide-and-seek and reimagine it in a unique location. The PLAY! course allows students to learn about the psychological benefits of play and the history of games while earning the ability to create worlds and gamified systems inspired by the games we love.

• Play! is an in-person experience-based course for students interested in kinesthetic methods and immersive learning.

PROTOTYPIA

Imagine a seven-week course that immerses students in a portal of learning possibilities. One that allows explorers to embark on weekly journeys to apply their curiosities from school to the real world. Prototypia is the name of an educational playground comprising eight themes called portals. Each portal is co-created with faculty, students, local partners, businesses, organizations, artists, brands, and some of the community's best assets. The "Choose your adventure"-style of the course is designed for students to engage in applied learning on and off campus.

SPACESHIPS

The Spaceships course explores the intersections of spatial and experience design. Students can discover locations/spaces on campus [or off campus] to reimagine for new purposes and functions. Spaceships is a seven-week journey where we immerse ourselves into rapid prototyping labs as individuals and groups to create “spaceships.” The culminating project will develop a portfolio of demonstrations that includes creating a temporary space that other students would have access to live, learn or work in.
