Twine (https:\/\/www.twinery.org<\/a>) is a tool for nonlinear storytelling \u2013 like the \u201cChoose Your Own Adventure\u201d books \u2013 that allows students to create narratives that explore conditional logic, web design, game building, and storytelling. Potential applications include historians writing alternate histories; team-based projects involving \u201cstorytellers\u201d and \u201cstory designers\u201d; creative renditions of \u201cpseudo-code\u201d for computer science students; and, of course, exploring interactive fiction by creating it. No coding knowledge required, but HTML and CSS can be used to style students\u2019 stories.<\/p>\n

In this simulcast workshop we will create a short piece of interactive fiction as an introduction to the platform and an exploration of some of its features. Workshop participants will explore:
\n-the basic settings for getting started in the Twine interface
\n-Twine\u2019s grid structure for designing non-linear writing
\n-tricks for styling elements of your writing using markup, macros, and hooks
\n-integrating media into your writing
\n-saving, exporting, and sharing<\/p>\n

Following the workshop, OWU Department of English Faculty member Stephanie Merkel will discuss her thoughts and experience using the platform in her teaching.<\/p>\n

The unique design of this virtual Ohio Five workshop presentation brings together participants on their local campuses for a \u201csatellite\u201d workshop experience. A local representative from each of the five colleges will host their colleagues in a convenient location on their own campus, orchestrate the communal viewing of the virtual workshop, and act as a resource in the room for any questions that arise. Participants may also register to attend virtually.<\/p>\n

Lunch will be provided.<\/p>\n
