The Arrival Article Overview
Dear Student this is the first part of paper that we will write for the Reading Teacher. Please note the questions that we are searching for below:
A Stranger in a Strange Land: A Literature Cyberlesson on The Arrival (Tan, 2007)At one time or another every citizen in the United States has had some familial connection to immigration/migration whether voluntary or forced. This paper presents the results of a study which makes use of an Internet Methods Framework, the Literature Cyberlesson (Kurkjian, C., & Kara-Soteriou, J.,Abadiano, H.R. & Mulcahy, C. 2008;2006;2005), focusing on teachers’ and their students’ reader response to Shaun Tan’s The Arrival (2007), a fantasy book of visual images that explores being a stranger in a strange land. This Internet framework guides students before, during, after and beyond the reading of a text. It builds and activates background knowledge, creates an anticipatory set for reading, helps students to enter, reenter and revisit text to invite comprehension and reader response. Graduate students enrolled in a sixth-year level class participated in The Arrival Literature Cyberlesson and then modified it for use with varying levels of students within their individual classrooms (students ranging from primary to middle grades). The presentation will discuss results across levels of participation and themes that emerged from the qualitative analysis in light of the following foci which include:
1)Teachers’ reader response to The Arrival through the vehicle of the cyberlesson,
2) Teachers’ modifications to the cyberlesson to accommodate varying levels of student diversity,
3)Teachers’ responses to the use of cyberlessons in a school setting to support teaching and learning,
4)Students’ reader response to the The Arrival through the vehicle of the cyberlesson,
5)Students’ response to the use of cyberlessons as a vehicle to support learning.
Data analyzed include artifacts created in response to the literature cyberlesson, teacher and student reflections/interviews.
I am going to ask you to post your reader response to the book in the format of the Arrival Literature Cyberlesson. I will pose a few guiding questions to help focus.
Thank you!
