fanfictions as an "insider" text form best appreciated by readers familiar with the source material. 
As Rhiannon   who is a participant in the research, She explained, if the fanfic "is about a specific cartoon then you need to understand the cartoon in order to be able to understand the fan fic!" ]]> 2017-11-11 20:23:10 UTC https://padlet.com/neyadira/8tj89rl4k5i7/wish/205919360 Anime as a source for fanfictions. neyadira https://padlet.com/neyadira/8tj89rl4k5i7/wish/205919782 Anime is  similar to manga (Japanese comics). Manga sales represent nearly 40% of the total number of books and magazines sold in Japan (Schodt, 1996), and animated features account for about 50% of all movie ticket sales there (Napier, 2001). 
One scholar has argued that anime represents Japan's "chief cultural export" (cited in Napier, 2001, p. 5) since anime fan clubs, conventions, and Web rings have sprung up all over the West.

The research took place in a sub urban middle school in upstate New York in the United States.
Kelly, a university-based researcher, spent one or two days a week observing and in terviewing students about their technology.
Donna, an English teacher at the school, gathered data from daily interactions with students in classes.
Eileen and Rhiannon, our focal informants, were friends enrolled in Donna's study hall dur ing the 2000-2001 school year.

Teachers should come to their texts with an appreciation of 
intertextuality, multimodality, and hybridity, all of which           equire Designers to use Available Resources in complex ways.]]> 2017-11-11 21:05:10 UTC https://padlet.com/neyadira/8tj89rl4k5i7/wish/205922317 Multimodality. neyadira https://padlet.com/neyadira/8tj89rl4k5i7/wish/205924173 Multimodality, or the integration of various Designs such as visual, linguistic, and audio in one text, is a key concept in the Multiliteracies framework.
According to the New London Group (1996), all texts are multimodal to some degree, even those that appear to be produced in a single mode. As Cope and Kalantzis (2000).

The New London Group's (1996) framework helped  to consider fanfictions in a broader context - as texts influenced by cultural artifacts and social discourses -  Three con cepts from the framework were most useful in this process: multimodality, intertextuality, and hybridity.

The outcome of Designing is a new meaning, some thing through which meaning-makers remake them selves.]]> 2017-11-11 21:42:01 UTC https://padlet.com/neyadira/8tj89rl4k5i7/wish/205924744 The Multilitenacies framework. neyadira https://padlet.com/neyadira/8tj89rl4k5i7/wish/205924830 "Multiliteracies" referenced two key elements of their vision: (a) "the multiplicity of communications channels and media" and (b) "the increasing salience of cultural and linguistic diversity" (Cope & Kalantzis, p. 5)

As the New London Group (1996) explained, any text being Designed is "linked" to "one or more series ('chains') of past texts" (p. 75)

According to Cope and Kalantzis (2000),

In their fanfictions, the girls created hybrid texts that wove together various discourses and genres.
