Abstract:

This thesis examines how narrative-based game creation can be used as an activity to improve writing skills for young people aged 11-15, and how additional representational support in a game creation tool can increase the benefits of the activity. Creating narrative-based games can involve traditional writing skills as well as requiring the 21st century skills of multimodal and interactive writing. Toolsets make it possible for young people to create 3D role-playing games with a commercial look and feel, but they do not provide support for the complex task of interactive and multimodal narrati

Abstract:

'The Architect of Forking Paths' examines the creative writing process involved in producing interactive narratives. Stories that feature interaction offer a substantially different reading experience because the reader influences the order, and often the outcome, of the story. This heightened level of participation adds another dimension to the process of conceptualising and writing such narratives. This thesis investigates this writing process using a number of research methods including creative writing, interviews with practitioners, content/textual analysis, and reflective practice. The e

Abstract:

The term ‘writing coastlines’ implies a double meaning. The word ‘writing’ refers both to the act of writing and to that which is written. The act of writing translates aural, physical, mental and digital processes into marks, actions, utterances, and speech-acts. The intelligibility of that which is written is intertwined with both the context of its production and of its consumption. The term ‘writing coastlines’ may refer to writing about coastlines, but the coastlines themselves are also writing in so far as they are translating physical processes into marks and actions. Coastlines are the

Abstract:

This thesis offers a reading of Michael Ondaatje's narrative works that correlates certain aesthetic choices with alternative forms of political allegiance. Starting with a discussion of what constitutes the haptic qualities of these texts, I demonstrate how synaesthesia and indexicality as aesthetic devices and thematic choices forge a more egalitarian and interactive relationship between reader, author and work. Whilst the dissolution of monologic textuality gives way to heteroglossic textural propinquity, Ondaatje's works do not simply celebrate multivalent meaning, but recurrently remind o

Abstract:

One important feature of an effective document that makes it easy to read and understand is known as coherence. Technical documents produced collaboratively are often incoherent due to a lack of group consensus and misaligned contributions by the individual authors. However, current document planning techniques and writing tools do not provide explicit support for improving coherence. The goal of this research, therefore, is to develop and evaluate a new technique and tool that helps teams of authors to structure coherent technical documents.

A combination of textual analysis and media specific analysis is used to establish and articulate patterns of cohesion in an array of various transmedia and literary works. Based on this analysis, the research proposes a theoretical framework for transmedia narrative cohesion that establishes links between literary and narrative

Abstract:

Writing gives children a chance to practice self-expression and creativity (Dobson, 2015b; Millard, 2005) as they learn needed literacy skills (Calkins, 2003). When children write, they appropriate semiotic materials from popular culture, literature, and the world around them (Dyson, 1997, 2003, 2013). Although the National Commission on Writing (2003) recommended that writing instruction be "placed squarely in the center of the elementary curriculum," attention to writing continues to lag behind other subjects (Coker et al., 2016; Cutler and Graham, 2008; Korth et al., 2016; Simmerman et al.,

The thesis shows how the novel The Apothecary's Tales manipulates narrative frames to create a 'simulachron', an unreliable virtual world, which problematises the reader's conceptions of the past. The novel transgresses the generic rules of 'historical fiction' to create a quality of 'historicity' located in the affect of alterity. This is argued to be a somatic response to peril deferred. The novel seeks to evoke alterity by defamiliarising linguistic norms. It does this principally through the use of 'diachronic polysemia' (lexical 'false friends') and intertexts to syncopate the reader cont
