Video games are emerging as a incredible interactive medium for storytelling. As in literature, all of the key components of a good story are present, however, unlike other media, video games invite the player to actively participate in the story world. In this session, Lucas will share his latest game-based project that encourages middle school students to explore the rich storytelling in video games on a variety of platforms including the XBox, PlayStation3, PC, iPad, and even handheld gaming systems. See how students are not only exploring these games, but analyzing their story elements, writing online reviews, and telling their own stories!
