Zusatztext "This book is a timely resource for teachers who are searching for meaningful examples of new media narratives to supplement their teaching of children's literature." -- Angela Thomas! E-Learning! 2008 Informationen zum Autor Len Unsworth is Associate Professor in English and Literacy Education in the Faculty of Education at the University of Sydney. Klappentext As ICT continues to grow as a key resource in the classroom, this book helps students and teachers to get the best out of e-literature, with practical ideas for work schemes for children at all levels. Len Unsworth draws together functional analyses of language and images and applies them to real-life classroom learning environments, developing pupils' understanding of 'text'. The main themes include: What kinds of literary narratives can be accessed electronically? How can language, pictures, sound and hypertext be analysed to highlight the story? How can digital technology enhance literary experiences through web-based 'book talk' and interaction with publishers' websites? How do computer games influence the reader/ player role in relation to how we understand stories? Zusammenfassung These practical ideas, suggestions and real-life experiences will help you to understand the differences and similarities of the literary experience for children through classic, modern and leading-edge narratives in both book and computer formats.
