  2. Reading, Writing, and Teaching Creative Hypertext: A Genre-Based Pedagogy

    The present essay contributes a genre-based pedagogy, until now only hinted at by hypertext theorists and not imported into the domain of hypertext by genre theorists. While I focus on creative hypertexts—autobiographies and popular genres like soap operas and road trip stories—a genre-based pedagogy can also be used to guide students through the production of informational, academic, community or club Web sites, personal home pages, and whatever blurred or evolving genres students are inspired by and see fit to explore.

    I advance a genre-based pedagogy for teaching the reading and writing of creative hypertext to enable teachers of hypertext to start from what they know and to provide them and their students with concrete terms and models. Such a pedagogy, especially if informed by recent scholarship on genre's flexible and rhetorical nature, requires students to make various choices not only about form but about compositional concerns: tone, diction, prose style, character development, plot, setting, visual design, and hypertext navigation strategies.

  6. Flash Points: Reading Electronic Literature as a Metaphor for Creativity

    In her groundbreaking volume Electronic Literature: New Horizons for the Literary (2008), N. Katherine Hayles describes the concept of a ‘flash point’ as a moment within pedagogy or teaching practice when a student grasps the complex potential of a digital work. As a form of pedagogical breakthrough moment, the concept of the flash point also alludes to a mode of creativity that acknowledges the possibility that neurological processes can be replicated, if only metaphorically, in creative works. In this article, we explore the possibilities suggested by the idea of the flash point as a teaching model and as a metaphor for creativity beyond the teaching of digital literature. We build upon our experiences as teachers within a digital literary and creative writing context, respectively. What the two different writing and teaching contexts have in common is the fostering of writing in a digital age as a central practice. The article examines how digital media and writing come together in pedagogical practices.

  9. Netzliteratur in der Lehre: Fachliche Kompetenzen vermitteln und erwerben durch kooperatives Blended Learning

    My major investigation in my master’s thesis was based on a class held at the
    University of Siegen in 2007: “Digital Literature and Arts II.” In this course I
    served as academic assistant and developed a teaching model that is now
    applicable in Blended Learning Environments. While in my bachelor thesis I was
    interested in the design of online learning environments, my main focus in the
    completion of the master’s was on the student’s course performance: My
    objective was to find methods to analyze the students learning activity. Therefore,
    I analyzed the teaching and learning interaction based on theories I derived from
    studies on Computer Supported Collaborative Work (CSCW) and Computer
    Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL).

  10. The Aesthetics of Generative Literature: Lessons from a Digital Writing Workshop

    This paper explores a range of issues related to the pedagogy and practice of generative writing in programmable media. We begin with a brief description of the RiTa toolkit – a set of computational tools designed to facilitate the practice of generative writing. We then describe our experiences using these tools in a series of digital writing workshops at Brown University in 2007-2008. We discuss and theoretically examine a set of core issues raised by workshop participants — distributed authorship, the aesthetics of surprise, materiality, push-back, layering, and others — and attempt to situate them within the larger discourse of generative art and writing practice.
