Abstract:
My studies consider the application of digital game theory to the instruction of writing in the first year composition classroom. I frame my argument through dialectic of representation and simulation and the cultural shift now in progress from the latter to the former. I first address the history of multimodal composition in the writing classroom, specifically noting the movement from analysis to design. In the third chapter, I examine several primary tenants of video game theory in relation to traditional academic writing, such as the concept of authorship and the importance of a rule sys

Abstract:
Ego: Writing the Psychological Play, Diego focuses on my analytical research and educational experiences as a Theatre major and Psychology minor as well as my personal journey over a four year period writing the play Diego. Theatre provided background for my writing process, and Psychology provided the basis for the play’s main themes. The play’s major plot as well as many of the characters and relationships came from a notable time in my own life, such that without those dramatic personal events, the inception of the play never would have occurred. I combined my experiences with my knowledge

Abstract:
How can a playwright share authorial control with a group of actors when creating a new play script? How does the individual playwright address matters of genre, form, style and structure to create a unifying theme, while remaining true to the dramatic intention and aesthetics of the group? What impact will the collaborators have on a playwright's work? Will they help or hinder the writing process? This exegesis closely follows the creation of a new play, The Woods, in a process where the playwright intended to facilitate a collaborative process with the actors rather than act as sole author.

Improvisational dramatic role-play activities are used in classrooms to encourage children to explore the feelings of the characters in a story.

There is evidence to suggest that Bond criticism has begun to abandon certain preoccupations which have held it in a stalemate. Such commentary, however, is tentative and incomplete. Indeed, uncertainty about Bond dates back to the beginning of Bond’s career when, in the mid sixties, commentators endeavoured to establish a critical discourse which secured Bond’s importance as a British dramatist. But while no one, either then or now, denies Bond’s fame, criticism hesitates between a defence of Bond's political intentions and an actual account of his plays as dramatic structures which may, or m
