Learning Opportunities & Challenges in a Transmedia Storyworld

Presentation at the Media Education Summit 16 - Rome. By tapping into the design, and application of a transmedia language learning storyworld, part of an ongoing research project, this presentation explores a set of pedagogical frameworks that take into account the interconnected media context of students and presents considerations regarding the development of a design methodology targeted to enhance learning opportunities within an immersive storyworld. The presentation concludes with a brief discussion of the challenges emerging from the implementation process of a prototype version of the storyworld in a formal learning environment and points to future research.
