Week Ahead: 7

7 10/4 The Stanley Parable
Develop rubric for Unpacking Manuel’s
Discuss first two podcast episodes
10/6 The Beginner’s Guide
Begin literacy narrative assignment
10/7 Podcast episodes 3 & 4 due

I’ve updated the schedule some, partly to correct my mistake on fall break next week and also to stretch out discussion time for the games this week.

Come to class having played through Stanley Parable — there is a free demo available on Steam that gives you enough sense of the game for our class discussion but it is a classic independent game so I encourage you to buy the full version and play it. We will also spend time in class developing the rubric that I will use to grade your final revisions of the Manuel’s Tavern assignments. I’m waiting for the recording of the podcast intro before I publish the first two episodes — expect them to go up on Monday. I’ll embed them in posts here. Listen to them before class on Tuesday and we’ll discuss those too.

For Thursday, we’ll discuss Davey Wreden’s follow-up to Stanley Parable, Beginner’s Guide. I’ll also give you the assignment for the literacy narrative assignment and you’ll start working on that.
