Makes

This “Makes” section is a repository for different projects that we have worked on that showcase the affordances of digital platforms. These makes will continue to develop over time as the theories surrounding each field advances. While each “make” engages in different aspects of education, they afford the viewers the opportunity to expand their conceptual horizons of the varying theories within pedagogy.

This blog was created in a desire to explore the world of Cognitive Narratology. To look at the concepts of Cognitive Narratology and its influences in spaces like digital platforms and literature. To use the concepts to investigate how and why people interact with language, writing, and story the way that they do. There are some blog posts that discusses books and concepts while others consider how certain platforms are working with in the ideas of these concepts.
