ABSTRACT

The syllabus for the second multiplayer classroom is very similar to the first. The main difference was the shift from all video games to multiplayer games, specifically persistent worlds. This class did not focus on the multiplayer versions of solo-player games. The experience points levelling was the same with the same faults. The methods of forming guilds, and so on, were the same. And students would again be responsible for quests, presenting reading material in class. Topics for crafted papers were made more suitable for the focus of the new class. Students reported on an massively multiplayer online (MMO) article, analyzed an MMO-based research topic, and crafted a longer analysis of an MMO of their choice. This could be a game they were already playing, or one they started soon after beginning the class. Ben Schulz.
