Contending that people view each other as individuals, not classifiable types in a segmented society, this volume explains a versatile concept of user-focused design, solidly backed by research, and helpful in IT product design as much as character-led movies.

Det sker så ofte (og det er så god en historie!) at medierne har døbt hændelserne: School Shootings. Netop mediernes rolle er lagt op til diskussion i dette materiale, som via varierede teksttyper og autentiske interviews forsøger at gå bag om hændelserne, de involverede personer, den amerikanske våbentradition og den direkte konsekvens på nogle af de amerikanske skoler i dag: Zero Tolerance Policy!Som med Focus on Young Americans har forfatterne lavet et materiale hvor amerikansk kultur, tekstforståelse og sproglig udvikling går op i en højere enhed.

ICT plays an increasingly important role in the educational field, but often the focus is more on technology than on pedagogy. Learning and Narrativity in Digital Media focuses on the pedagogical aspects before the technical aspects.  The underlying paradigm is a student or learner centred learning philosophy. Here importance is attached to the learning processes and to the development of problem solving strategies, creativity and critical thinking. The contributions are based on a common theoretical approach to learning related to constructivism, collaborative learning, and situated learning.  The anthology is organised around two themes. The first is "ICT and Learning" and the second is "Meaning Construction and Narrativity". The first theme consists of four chapters, which present and discuss different ways of using ICT in learning as well as in pedagogical processes. The second theme consists of five chapters on cognition and the use of narratives in education, learning and design processes involving media.  Learning and Narrativity in Digital Media is the result of mutual engagement in the Danish Research Network on Learning and Multimedia. The network has also published the book Learning in Virtual Environments.
