The five month long program is divided into two main components: an instructional component and a self-directed production component. The two and a half month instructional component consists of 10 weeklong instructor facilitated modules covering the following main themes collaborative creativity, interactive narrative, new media forms, and business development.
During all the modules a responsive, discussion-based format of instruction is used along with peer reviewed group assignments. This unique balance between self-directed learning and directed learning allows program participants to actualize their potential while capitalizing on the collective knowledge of everyone involved.
