| dc.description.abstract | Transmedia storytelling provides an opportunity for librarians to engage their students in creative activities which lure students into reading by building from the basic story into a world of cooperative group work and collaborative intelligence. The research into creativity confirms the contribution transmedia storytelling offers to students who do not fit a traditional mode, and who, if never allowed to be creative in the classroom either drop out of school or become passive learners, and their possible long-term contributions are lost to the future. A new experience, makerspaces, is introduced and proposed as a way to allow students to move toward achieving their full potential. ile provides a template for writing papers for the 2013 IFLA conference. Full papers should be no longer than 4000 words. For your paper to be accepted it must be formatted as a Microsoft Word file (.doc or .rtf), 10 MB or less in size, including pictures & diagrams and should be written in compliance with these instructions. | en |
