Description
This edited collections brings together different approaches to born-digital literature across the foreign language learning curriculum, with practical applications for curriculum design and course planning. The book develops a framework that takes into account the increasing appearance of born-digital literature and how it shapes the interaction between creator and audience. It covers a broad variety of types of born-digital literature which so far have not been an explicit focus in the context of language teaching, while also providing a grounding in the current discussions around digital literacies in education. In response to the pace of change in recent years in the accessibility and wider use of new types of digital literature, this volume focuses on innovative approaches from a wide range of educational contexts while considering the needs of learners from diverse backgrounds. Running themes across the chapters are: creativity, learner autonomy, critical reading, reader response and teacher development. The volume includes contributions from both renowned scholars in the field and the new voices of early career researchers, from Belgium, Germany, Japan, Libya, Spain, Sweden and the UK.
