21ST CENTURY LITERATURE FROM THE PHILIPPINES AND THE WORLD

 LESSON 5:CREATIVE LITERARY CREATION

Marshall (2001)
defined multimedia as computer-controlled integration of text, graphics, drawings, still and moving images (video),
animation, audio, and any other media where every type of information can be represented, stored, transmitted and
processed digitally. 
Multimedia
means that computer information can be represented through audio, video, and animation in addition to traditional
media (i.e., text, graphics/drawings, images). 
Multimedia
- refers to content that uses more than one medium. The categories of media are slippery, but they generally include: 
 Text 
 Sound 
 Graphics/images 
 Animation/video (live footage as opposed to animation)

FORMATS OF MULTIMEDIA
Blog or a “weblog”
is a website containing informational articles about a person’s own opinions, interests and experiences. These are
usually changed regularly (DepEd 2013, 9).
Blog structure 
The appearance of blogs has changed over time, and these days blogs include a wide variety of items and widgets.
However, most blogs still include some standard features and structures.

Here are common features that a typical blog will include: 

 Header with the menu or navigation bar. 
 Main content area with highlighted or latest blog posts. 
 Sidebar with social profiles, 
 favorite content, or call-to-action. 
 Footer with relevant links like a disclaimer, privacy policy, contact page, etc.
Mind Mapping
is a graphical technique to visualize connections of ideas and pieces of information. This tool structures information
to better analyze, comprehend, synthesize, recall and generate new ideas. You can use Microsoft Word or online
mind mapping tools in creating a mind map. (Pasuello 2017).

 Borne in mind when creating a mind map:

 Use symbols
 Use as images and color
 Use hierarchy and association
 Use radiant thinking
 Use arrows to denote links between ideas.
 Be clear

Mobile Phone Text Tula

is a traditional Filipino poem. A particular example of this poem is a tanaga that consists of 4 lines with 7 syllables
each with the same rhyme at the end of each line. (DepEd 2013,)
 The modern tanaga still uses the 7777 syllable count, but rhymes range from dual rhyme forms: AABB,
ABAB, ABBA; to freestyle forms such as AAAB, BAAA, or ABCD. 
Slideshow presentation
is created with the use of Microsoft PowerPoint.
 It contains series of pictures or pages of information (slides) arranged in sequence and often displayed on a
large screen using a video projector (Computer Hope 2018).
 May be a presentation of images purely for their own visual interest or artistic value, sometimes
unaccompanied by description or text, or it may be used to clarify or reinforce information, ideas, comments,
solutions or suggestions which are presented verbally. 
  Slide shows are sometimes still conducted by a presenter using an apparatus such as a carousel slide
projector or an overhead projector, but now the use of an electronic video display device and a
computer presentation software running  is typical

Tag Cloud
is a visual, stylized arrangement of words or tags within a textual content such as websites, articles, speeches and
databases (Techopedia 2020).
 A tag cloud is a logical arrangement of keywords within a textual content that visually describes the subject
of a website, blog or any other text. Tags representing the most popular topics are highlighted using bold,
larger fonts or increased color saturation to make it easy to see the most popular tags on the page. 
 Tag clouds are used as a navigation or visualization tool to help users search the content easily.
 A tag cloud is also known as word cloud or weighted list.
 Video
is an electronic device used to record, copy, playback, broadcast, and display moving visual media (Lexico 2020).

LESSON 6: APPLYING ICT SKILLS IN INTERPRETING LITERARY TEXTS

Anecdote

 is a short entertaining or interesting story about a real incident or person (Nagpal 2016).
 Tell about a variety of stories and tales, since they can be about any topic under the sun. It is a short story
about a real person or event which usually intends to make the listeners laugh or ponder over a topic.
 s defined as a short and interesting story, or an amusing event, often proposed to support or demonstrate
some point, and to make the audience laugh.
 can include an extensive range of tales and stories. In fact, it is a short description or an account of any
event that makes the readers laugh or brood over the topic presented for the purpose.

FUNCTION OF ANECDOTE

 To Bring Cheer 

Stories pop up anywhere and these are just sometimes making people laugh to brighten their mood.

Example: At the dinner, a Grade 11 learner shared his story on his first day at school when he got lost and
attended a wrong class.

To Reminisce 
In most anecdotes, people are talking about their experiences in the past. They try to look back on moments in their
lives and share the joy of that time with others. 

Example: A mother tells her children a story about her life in the province when she was teenager.

To Caution 
Sometimes, just giving rules for individuals is not effective. Sharing to them frightening stories of dangers can be
helpful for them to realize the possible consequences of their actions. 

Example: Before beginning a lecture on not following traffic rules, a father tells his son an incident of collision that
caused many lives due to ignoring traffic signs.

To Persuade or Inspire
Someone, people share stories on how they surpassed their struggles in life. These, most of the time, give
encouragement to others who have been in similar situations. The message usually conveys successes in life as a
fruit of hard work.

Example: Before beginning a remedial class, the teacher tells the students how a boy who used to struggle in
reading managed to be a proficient reader.
