Online Games

I gained a great deal of knowledge on the construction of stories and how they've evolved across the years, from books, to painting, to video games.

Definitely a must learn if you have an interest in video games and literature!

The discussed example is Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" and the games "Lord of the Rings Online".The support is outstanding on Coursera as well as in the game.

An interesting course for anyone who likes lord of the rings online, fantasy (modern and presents), literature, video games, and/or movies!

I loved the fusion of literature, movies, and games It was very interesting and fun.

I liked the literature and examples of the workshop, it was very interesting and It did awaken a much slept passion for poetry and romance.

I'm giving a huge recommendation for anyone who wants to see an interdisciplinary approach to online gaming (gaming is optional, but it's really a fun experience), and to brush up (or learn as a beginner) your comparative literature skills.

Beyond that, the world of online gaming was opened to me.

There is a class group consisting of graduate students, who are each giving opinions about certain literary work, narrative genres or video games, so you feel as if you're a part of that discussion.

But I've learned new things, even though I had background in literary theory, and, most importantly, I've read new literary work, which were a nice example of the theoretical discussions of the course.
