StoryLogicNet Community – Collaborative Writing for Children’s Multiliteracy Skills Utilising Multimodal Tools

Description

Multiliteracy Education in Europe generally aims to ensure that young people become competent in using multimodal representations of language capable of communicating and contributing to the development of social futures and well-being of the society in which they live in.Multiliteracy is the ability to identify, interpret, create, and communicate meaning across a variety of visual, oral, corporal, musical and alphabetical forms of communication. Beyond a linguistic notion of literacy, Multiliteracy involves an awareness of the social, economic and wider cultural factors that frame communication. Multiliteracy aims to make classroom teaching more inclusive of cultural, linguistic, communicative, and technological diverse. They advocate this so that students will be better prepared for a successful life in a globalized world.Multiliteracy Education has, in this context, a decisive role to play, as it can have a key role in creating a common and adequate response to the pressing challenges that respect fundamental European values, but also in building a more cohesive Europe.In the Project StoryLogicNet one step forward is taken towards the pedagogy of multiliteracies to support teachers and pupils as well as parents in negotiating complex and various discourses through multimodal texts constructed in the European contemporary multicultural and multilingual social context. A multiliteracy approach of creative language learning emerges from the cultural, linguistic, and technical experiences that learners bring into the classrooms and aims at the further development of a broad range and new forms of literacies.The goal of StoryLogicNet is to increase Multiliteracy Competences of children (8 to 12 yo) by developing, testing and making available to educators and parents, a new learning methodology based on online collaborative writing for communicating meaning via digital storytelling and multiliteracy for the 21st Century Creative Classroom.The project aimed specifically to:• Create an online collaborative tool for Multiliteracy education – StoryLogicNet Community - accessible in computers and mobile devices, to facilitate the process of co-creation of stories in formal, non-formal and informal learning contexts;• Create a toolkit – StoryLogicNet Toolkit – to facilitate the implementation of the new learning methodology based on the StoryLogicNet Community to develop Multiliteracy, with contents and exercises on how to create stories, how to stimulate the creativity of children to generate new stories;• Test the StoryLogicNet Community & Toolkit to get feedback from teachers, parents and children on the new learning methodology (impact on learning and ease of use);• Use the feedback from teachers, parents and children on the new learning methodology, and use the stories created by the children to validate and showcase this new approach;• Disseminate and exploit this new learning methodology for Multiliteracy.Throughout the project, about 500 children, teachers and other educators, and decision makers in education were involved in research activities, training events, pilot testing activities, in contests for children.Also, 70 schools and teachers have registered into the SLN Community, involved over 600 students and created more than 126 stories, in the last 4 months of the project.Several other project results were accessed and downloaded from the project website by close to 2.000 people.Furthermore, over 400.000 individuals have been targeted by the wide dissemination strategy set in place, comprised of social media, website, online educational communities (including eTwinning), project video, published articles, presentation conferences and other events, among other dissemination activities carried out by the project partnership at local, national and European levels.This initiative gathers the vast expertise of 5 partners from 4 different European countries, including a Regional Education Authority, 2 Primary and upper primary schools, a HEI and a private company active in education.•Advancis Business Services Lda (Portugal) - Coordinator: research company in the field of education and learning, content developer and certified training company•University of Western Macedonia (Greece): Higher Education Institution offering studies in the field of education•Inspectoratul Scolar Judetean Arad (Romania): public body that renders support to the schools in the County of Arad in Romania•Szkola Podstawowa nr 1 im.
