ROLE PALY GAME

IN LITERATURE
CLASS

Module 3: The Learner and Learning in a Digital Age Activity 1:

Game Design for Learning
Presented by: Lexi Liu
 THE GOAL
This game is critical to subject matter
mastery. The process of story creation and
expansion will be extremely beneficial in
assisting students in comprehending literary
works.
They will do peer review after this game and
then choose “the best story ” and “the best
performance.”
STEP 1 ESTABLISHING A TEAM
(30 MINS FOR THIS SECTION)
Each student in this class will draw
lots to decide which group they
belong to. There will be around 6-7
students in each group.
After all the groups are established,
they will decide which person is
responsible for which part. All the
progress should be documented.
If someone doesn't want to play a
role in the performance, then he or
she should contribute a lot to the
creation of the story.
STEP 2 STORY CREATION AND SCRIPTWRITING
(AROUND 1-2 CLASSES WILL BE GIVEN TO
STUDENTS)

Several forms should be filled during the process of

the story of creation, including characters design
form and plots design form. They can be as creative
as they want by using pictures, graphics and maps
to make their thoughts concrete.
Before their creation, they will break up elements
within the story into game components: various
scenes, characters within the story and the things
which they interact with. Students will try to
incorporate the new situations and characters into
their narratives.
STEP 3 PERFORMING
(AROUND 2 CLASSES WILL BE GIVEN TO
THEM)

The group members who are

responsible for performing will
design the play based on the story
their group members created. They
also need to prepare their
costumes and stage properties.
They will use the after-class time to
do the rehearsal.

based on the Classical Chinese
story they learned.

STEP 4 REFLECTIONS AND FEEDBACKS
(WILL BE GIVEN AS HOMEWORK)

They will give comments for other

groups and will select the best story
group and best performance group.
At the same time, they will write
reflections as a group and the
teacher will give them feedback.
