Abstract

Transmedia (cross-media/cross-platform/multi-platform) storytelling edutainment involves the use of narratives as a critical-creative approach to learning. The storytelling framework is a viable solution to engage a universal audience in both seated and online environments. The inherent interactivity of the internet and interaction with story is a method that can reach learners with both focused and short attention spans in media-rich environments. An e-module case study and slide presentation is offered to demonstrate narrative practice.
