This is a small visual novel I put together to teach the concepts of hypothesis testing to my psych research methods class. http://evc-cit.info/psych018/hypothesis_testing.html I am sure that this is something that Ren'py was never intended for, but I did it anyway. Comments are welcomed.
The back story behind this VN (if you can even call it that): It seems that students haven't been reading the book, and my lecture didn't seem to clear things up. What to do?
A PDF document? No; too formal, and it's just more reading.
A set of PowerPoint slides? No. Just no.
A manga? Great idea, but I have no artistic talent, and I got stuck figuring out how to lay out panels
Aha! Ren'py was the solution! The visual novel format gave me the ability to write the content informally and deliver it in small, manageable segments. The ability to do interaction was nice, too.
Wow, Evergreen! I've thought about attending classes there a couple of times. I don't know about the other students, but I would be tickled pink to see my professor use Ren'Py.
