The increasing impact of interaction on the narratives (stories) told in today’s and tomorrow’s educational and entertainment media requires a new perspective on story development. This class begins with an overview of the area and its history from the writer’s perspective, and then moves on to review and analyze common interactive structures and narrative requirements. Students are also exposed to the basic types of interactive narrative and media being created today. The final third of the class has students developing their own interactive narrative project and present them to the class.
