Lire la littérature numérique à l’université : deux situations pédagogiques
La littérature numérique n’a cessé se développer ces dernières décennies. La nature informatique et souvent hypermédiatique des œuvres incite le lecteur à mobiliser plusieurs approches et compétences, allant de l’analyse littéraire à la programmation, de l’esthétique au web-design, des études cinématographiques à la musicologie, des sciences de la communication à l’ingénierie des réseaux. Grâce à son caractère multidisciplinaire, une lecture analytique d’œuvres de littérature numérique peut être intégrée dans différents contextes pédagogiques. Après une brève introduction au vaste champ de la littérature numérique, je présenterai dans cet article deux situations d’enseignement où l’intégration de la littérature numérique peut contribuer non seulement à une hybridation salutaire des savoir-faire techniques, maisment critique des outils numériques et de leurs usages.

Digital Literature—In Search of a Discipline ?
Academic research on digital literature was initiated many years ago; researchers and teachers like Jean-Pierre Balpe and Jean Clément at University Paris 8 have provided major contributions to the understanding of electronic poetry, hyperfiction and text generation. They have also managed to integrate digital literature into university courses in Information and Communication Sciences. But most of the Departments of Literature have not supported these educational experiments. Whereas a certain number of specific literary methods undoubtedly prove suitable for the analysis of poetry and narrative texts in electronic media (semiotics, gender and cultural studies, biographical or even thematical approaches), literary studies in France are quite reluctant to deal with digital literature. The ambiguous status of digital works, between literature, visual and performing arts, does not facilitate their integration into one specific discipline either. Thanks to its many specificities—including hypermedia—digital literature involves many creative and interpretative abilities, from film analysis to programming, from rhetoric to sound engineering.

Creativity Support for Computational Literature
The creativity support community has a long history of providing valuable tools to artists and designers. Similarly, creative digital media practice has proven a valuable pedagogical strategy for teaching core computational ideas. Neither strain of research has focused on the domain of literary art however, instead targeting visual, and aural media almost exclusively. To address this situation, this thesis presents a software toolkit created specifically to support creativity in computational literature. Two primary hypotheses direct the bulk of the research presented: first, that it is possible to implement effective creativity support tools for literary art given current resource constraints; and second, that such tools, in addition to facilitating new forms of literary creativity, provide unique opportunities for computer science education.

ELiterature Formalization and Pedagogical Implications
This paper deals with the eLiterature formalization and its pedagogical implications. Firstly, it considers the pressing need of an official formalization of Electronic Literature. Secondly, it provides a proposal for the appropriate pedagogical theory and methodologies necessary to take advantage of the possibilities offered by New Media Writing in educational contexts. Finally, it offers some examples of possible pedagogical practices which adopt Digital Literature.

‘Trying to See the Garden’: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Hypertext Use in Composition Instruction.”
Argues that technology necessitates that composition instructors gain the ability to shift perspectives and to look at the use of technology in composition instruction from as many disciplines as possible. Discusses some aspects of what it means to read and write in hypertext in two (normally mutually exclusive) perspectives: technology criticism and cognitive psychology.

Of Two Minds: Hypertext Pedagogy and Poetics
In Of Two Minds, noted hypertext novelist and writing teacher Michael Joyce explores the new technologies, mediums, and modalities for teaching and writing, ranging from interactive multimedia to virtual reality. As author of Afternoon: A Story, which the New York Times Book Review termed "the most widely read, quoted, and critiqued of all hypertext narratives," and co-developer of Storyspace, an innovative hypertext software acclaimed for offering new kinds of artistic expression, he is uniquely well qualified to explore this stimulating topic. The essays comprise what Joyce calls "theoretical narratives," woven from e-mail messages, hypertext "nodes," and other kinds of electronic text that move nomadically from one occasion or perspective to another, between the poles of art and instruction , teaching and writing. The nomadic movement of ideas is made effortless by the electronic medium, which makes it easy to cross borders (or erase them) with the swipe of a mouse, and which therefore challenges our notions of intellectual and artistic borders.
