The Quest for Openness

I have signed up for David Wiley’s Introduction to Openness class. It’s free for online participants (although you don’t get college accreditation for it). In an intriguing move, he’s modeled the course somewhat after RPGs, where course “credit” (whatever that means in this model) depends on class- and guild-dependent quests. I will probably play a Merchant, although I’m tempted to be a Bard.
