Explaining the experiment

Explaining the experiment | Australian Curriculum - English | Scoop.it
- September 17, 2012 6:01 PM

This scoopit began as a private test. I intended to feature only content discovered via the scoopit  'Suggested Content' search. 

 

I am now expanding this to include 'rescooping' from the scoopit topics of other users I follow.

 

Of course, your suggestions are welcome too. I want to see how much useful content comes my way without having to leave the scoopit site.

 

 

Jean Anning's insight:

17/02/2013 - I can't help myself - I can't resist a good site - I WILL include gems from those wonderful people in my twitter world. Thanks folks :)

This comic creator has limited features (eg text is only the sentences on offer, not editable.) Nevertheless, might be a good way to get young Star Wars fans to create.

The glossary definition for Visual literacy from the BOS NSW Syllabus for the Australian curriculum in English K–10 contains the key terms and concepts about visual texts, media and communication used in the syllabus.

The Visual Literacy White Paper (.pdf 181kB) has a brief overview and history of visual literacy.

The Visual Literacy slideshow (pdf 12.8 MB) provides a comprehensive introduction to visual literacy and visual texts, including examples and activities on analysing and decoding photographs, magazines and print advertisements.

Sophie Smith's curator insight, March 6, 6:35 PM

This is a great English and technology resource that I believe would be very popular with the boys ;).  As a beginning teacher I am always looking for new ways to inspire students to take an interest in reading and literacy.  Tools like this, which are outside the traditonal literacy square, help kids that may not be interested in reading or writing get involved in their literacy learning.  A resource for upper primary.
