TRANSMEDIA: The NEXT TECHNOLOGY FLOOD

The hottest technology trend isn’t a wave. It’s a tsunami! Beyond digital storytelling and Web 2.0 are transmedia worlds for learning. Explore the explosion of technologies and resources that use multiple modes of communication to convey complex, interactive learning experiences that allow teachers to differentiate like never before.

Transmedia creates seamless connections among books, websites, fiction and nonfiction that can bring learning alive. By combining the recent wave of new online tools and technologies with traditional books and web-based resources you and your students can create engaging learning environments. No longer are kids just playing with Lego, they're designing, discussing, sharing, and connecting with technology. Teens aren't just reading and writing, they're sharing and discussing online.
