Reviews of professor Theodore (Ted) Prawat

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Game 101 with this professor was a pretty nice experience. The format of his class isn't all that clear, but he's really passionate about this class and clearly wants everyone to do well. Also, playing DnD is pretty fun.

A truly baffling experience, but an easy A. Make sure you find a good group to sit with during your first class, you will be stuck with them all semester. Prawat may be the most chipper man on Earth, a little difficult to keep up with at time but always super flexible with assignments, no matter how strict the rubric is. If youre open, it'll be fun

Let me just say one thing. Easy class. But have a bit of D&D knowledge. I heard about the game obv from Stranger Things and other films here and there/general knowledge but knowing the game beforehand will help you in this class. You design your character, lore and dungeon with a group. Loved taking him. Would retake for an A but B+ is good enough

Not as easy as they say, but the class was still very fun. We played DND a lot, but also did some other things to build our final project which can take up a lot of time--might be easier if you're extra creative. He seems to love what he does and enjoys to see us having fun. Lets us know of opportunities in the game design world as well. Great guy!

This is the class to take if you need to fill an Arts core or need an easy A. It is a stress-free class where you can put in the bare minimum or get deeply invested at your leisure. We played DnD and formed oneshots that we ran for our final grade. Be prepared to show up and interact with classmates for a few hours a week

Theodore was arguably the best professor I've had at mason. Showing up to class is mandatory but if you show up and do work you will get an A. Minimal homework and he is easily accessible outside of class. Would highly recommend him. Class was hella Ghibli!!!

This was honestly such an amazing class to take. The class lets you be creative, and it is very interesting because all you do is play D&D. Professor Prawatt also cares a lot and wants you to be creative and just have fun with the class!

This class is super engaging and fun, and Professor Prawat really pushes you to think creatively. The card game design project has been a highlight so far — we're creating a game based on the Edo Japan period. This class gets your creative thinking going with no lecture. I definitely recommend Game 101!
