The Project-Based Inquiry (PBI) Model
1. Ask a Compelling Research Question. In collaborative dyads, teachers were required to ask a question that integrated the areas of new literacies and technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). They generated a specific question that was a...
2. Gather and Analyze Information. Based on their question, teachers conducted research with the aim of creating an innovative lesson that integrated the areas of new literacies and their TPACK. The goal for the teachers was to be intentional about d...
3. Creatively Synthesize Information. In order to arrive at a creative synthesis, teachers engaged in an iterative design and development process that resulted in representing their research results in a new and original way. The process required the...
4. Critically Evaluate and Revise. To ensure broad based and high- level feedback for their video products, teachers engaged in a 3- part evaluation: self-evaluation, peer evaluation, and outside expert evaluation. Evaluations were based on the follo...
5. Publish and Share. As a culminating activity, teachers shared their videos with class members as well as the larger educational community, on the Friday Institute's New Literacies Collaborative Ning (newlit.org). In creating a video of their PBI...

Typology of Virtual Worlds for Literary Study
1. Intertextual Map: As themselves, participants follow a virtual path through the setting of a literary work. Examples: Woolf's London based on early 20th century photographs of the city, closely follows two walking trips that main characters in V...
2. Virtual tour: Participants individually or in groups enter as themselves and explore and interact in a world based on literary sources. Examples: Dicken's London-In a 19th century version of London based on three Dickens novels students encoun...
3. Role Play Stage: The virtual world provides a geographical, visual, and auditory environment, avatars are based characters from source texts, multiple participants engage in dialog in character. Examples: Village of Umuofia based on Things Fall Ap...
4. Alternative Reality Game: On a role play stage, participants as avatars engage in activities with specific goals and rules based on principles or objectives from the source text. Examples: Midsummer Madness, after reading the first act of the play...
5. Second World: Students become builders and design a virtual world that parallels the world of the novel. Example: Brave New World MOO based on the Huxley novel students designed a world that not only included buildings and spaces mentioned in the ...
6. Textual Riff: Student become builders and, along with the professor, gather historical, cultural, literary and interpretative texts and images that respond to the source text. Examples: Pied Piper based on the medieval legend
Island Barrio based ...
7. Virtual Museum: An archive of image, sound, and cultural materials as a supplement to a specific literary work, can be entered by individuals or groups who may then engage in conversation. Examples: Angel's Space based on Tony Kushner's play A...

APPENDIX
1. You and two others (a group of three all together) will create a 2-3 minute I-movie that constructs some type of message about the media and uses at least TWO QUOTES from Brave New World.
2. There are many other ways you can do this-juxtaposing images, using music and news video, acting out a live action scene, creating a montage of still photographs from magazines, clip art, movie clips, photographs from home, et cetera.
3. Your I-movie must include meaningful musical choices that enhance the point you are trying to make.
4. Your I-movie must include transitions from one scene to the next when appropriate.
5. Your I-movie must creatively utilize technological capabilities. (Special effects, timing elements, etc.)

E-Book-Reader: Bookeen, Kobo, Pocketbook, Sony, Tolino u.v.a.m. (nicht Kindle)

Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist.
Mit Adobe-DRM wird hier ein „harter” Kopierschutz verwendet. Wenn die notwendigen Voraussetzungen nicht vorliegen, können Sie das E-Book leider nicht öffnen. Daher müssen Sie bereits vor dem Download Ihre Lese-Hardware vorbereiten.

Bitte beachten Sie: Wir empfehlen Ihnen unbedingt nach Installation der Lese-Software diese mit Ihrer persönlichen Adobe-ID zu autorisieren!
