| Topics of Interest |
The main topics of interest of the workshop are
the following ones (but not limited to these):
- How are narrative aspects of the learning environment represented
and developed in the ILE design process?
- How can existing methods be adapted to improve the quality of the
"designed-in" story? How can system designers take into account how the
learning experience will be "read" by the learners? Can knowledge of narrative
and dramatic techniques improve the design and development process for
learning environments?
- How does the medium of delivery influence the design of learning environments
that take advantage of interactive narrative concepts (interactive TV,
interactive video, etc)?
- What theories of interactive narrative are needed to support the different
possibilities provided by different delivery mechanisms?
- What can we learn from game designers that can be used within narrative
learning environments? How can we adapt this knowledge to the benefit
of learners?
- How can notions of interactive narrative support the development of
relationships between learners and teachers? How are different kinds of
communication and reflection supported?
- How can good quality relationships be maintained between people directly
and indirectly engaged in the narrative?
- How does narrative contribute to the effectiveness of learning environments
in promoting learning? How can its contribution be assessed?
