1. 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.

2. Student Research Using the ELMCIP Knowledge Base

   This talk describes ways in which we have used the Knowledge Base in teaching and independent student research at the University of Bergen, and proposes ways of integrating the Knowledge Base into new courses. We have found that the Knowledge Base works well as a reference resource for first-year students, whereas more experienced students can learn about multiple aspects of digital-humanities research (bibliographic, literary, methodological, institutional) by adding entries to the Knowledge Base, which provides the opportunity to write in a networked, digital enviornment in which their contributions will help to build a field by making the activities that constiute it visible.

   Advice for integrating the Knowledge Base into a course:

   1. Design the syllabus in the Knowledge Base before the course begins.

   2. Set students up with accounts at the start of the semester.

8. Cavewriting: Spatial Hypertext Authoring System

   In experimental hypertext fiction workshops at Brown University, undergraduate writers work with programmers to create interactive literary experiences in immersive virtual reality. To involve the writer more directly in the process of implementation, we have created CaveWriting: spatial hypertext authoring system. Authors can manipulate a graphical front-end to position text, multimedia, and 3D models within virtual space, apply special effects, and create hyperlinks which initiate theatrical events. The result can be previewed at any time inside a desktop window. This talk will cover the past and present of cavewriting at Brown and its future at UIUC, UCSD, and beyond.

10. Digital Literary Arts, Pedagogy and the Issue of Disciplinarity

    An important aspect of the European research project on electronic literature, creativity and innovation, the ELMCIP project, is the issue of pedagogical endeavors in the field of digital literary arts. As the Principal Investigator of the Swedish partner in ELMCIP, I researched some pedagogical models in Europe and co-edited an anthology of European electronic literature, which included pedagogical resources. Based in my own experience from curricular development at Blekinge Institute of Technology in Sweden and the research in the ELMCIP project, I will discuss the issue of disciplinary contexts in teaching digital literary arts. In what schools, departments and programs is digital literature taught, and how does it affect the models of teaching? How does the model of digital literature challenge the university structures, and how disciplines are defined? What are some of the lessons learned from the ELMCIP project that can be brought to bear on how humanistic and arts programs are developed in the future?
