What if your classroom syllabus wasn’t just a list of policies and expectations… but the opening level of a yearlong game?
The Story Powered Syllabus collection from EMC² Learning is built to do just that. These fully editable, visually immersive resources transform your syllabus into a living game manual—a dynamic, student-facing hub that sets the tone for adventure from day one. Whether your classroom theme leans into medieval quests, deserted island survival, space exploration, or ninja stealth, this collection has you covered with plug-and-play designs that feel like anything but a lecture.
What’s the Story with Your Syllabus?
Each template is crafted with care and purpose, blending style with structure. Students are invited into the world of your course through interactive elements, compelling narratives, and clear pathways to success. You still cover all the essentials—grading policies, routines, expectations—but now it’s through the lens of an epic journey that they can see themselves in.
Gone are the days of handing out dense packets that get tossed in a backpack. These syllabi are made to live, breathe, and evolve as the game progresses—making them a constant, engaging point of reference throughout the year.
Theme it. Dream it.
With a wide range of themes available and more being added regularly, you’ll find a design that fits your classroom vibe and content area. Whether you’re launching a semester-long campaign or just injecting new energy into back-to-school season, you’ll have a syllabus students want to explore.
All it takes is a quick content swap and your custom story begins.
These resources are available exclusively to members of EMC² Learning as part of their Engagement Engineer membership. No extra fees, no complicated setup—just powerful, purposeful pedagogy designed to help you kickstart your school year with clarity and creativity.
Think of it as your quest log. Your mission brief. Your classroom’s core manual.
