Storytelling Club
The Storytelling Club lets students to come together to spend time interacting with each other while building our own creative thinking abilities. Through the Storytelling Club, we are able to create different characters that we think would be fun and beneficial to play. Using these characters, we can interact with the world that we are presented by the advisor of the sessions. The sessions will all be a part of a bigger story, which allows the students to develop their characters in a way that puts their own storytelling ability into practice, as the students themselves are the ones who introduce, play as, and grow their own characters. These sessions give the students unique challenges that they must solve using critical thinking, logic, and their creative and persuasive abilities (with, of course, some fun to be had along the way), as well as forming a deeper camaraderie between people that might not have much interaction otherwise. Long story short, it’s a club where we tell interactive stories that are inside a bigger story. It’s like making your own game and playing it while it’s being developed or watching a movie while it’s being scripted. It’s a unique experience that’s hard to get anywhere else. And it’s just plain fun.
