This dissertation examines how narrative space is constructed in serialized print and television works across four case studies: the Victorian serial Mysteries of London, the Newgate novel Jack Sheppard, the television adaptations of Bleak House and Little Dorrit, and the television show Lost. Through these case studies, the dissertation analyzes how narrative space relates to serialization, material form, and cooperative fan practices of reconstruction. The key findings are that narrative space is destabilized by serialization, illustrations and text shape interpretations of each other, character movement constructs agency, and fan practices continuously reconfigure narrative space.

2009 a conceptual and analytical framework for interpreting the spatiality ...Lee Pugalis
This paper provides a framework for understanding the phenomenon of the discursive-material production of space, and also, for considering how unknowns may be organised. Language is instrumental to the production of place but has been overshadowed by investigations of material transformations. This is partly being redressed by the ‘linguistic turn’ in urban policy analysis over recent decades which recognise the performative aspects of language. However, the methodological ‘gap’ between discursivities and materialities remains as too often analysis of urban policy discourse has taken an aspatial analytic approach. Representations of space cannot be divorced from spatial practices and vice versa. Based on my premise that many visions, plans and strategies never materialise, and even some that do materialise have little bearing on what is produced, a mixed-method approach is required that considers the recursive interactions between spatial practices and representations of space. Grounded in the theories of Henri Lefebvre and Michel Foucault, which conceptualis space as a social process and broaden discourse to embrace spatial practice respectively, I devise a conceptual and operational analytics which I refer to as interpretive-spatial analysis with the goal of helping to bridge the problematic ontological, epistemological and methodological divide between discursivities and materialities.
Social ontology is concerned with the nature of the social world, constituents, or building blocks of social entities in general. Some theories claim that social entities are built from people's psychological states, others are built up of actions, others from practice, and other theories deny that even a distinction can be made between social and non-social. There are different philosophical views on how the ontological significance of narrative can contribute to our understanding of the social world and the way in which social reality is modeled. Some researchers consider that narrative is an instrumental cognitive skill or linguistic tool, while others regard it as an ontological category related to how people exist in the world, or understand human life as a narrative.

Mapping Narrative Structures w/ Computational Text Analysis (LIWC-22)Shalin Hai-Jew
A classic narrative (storytelling) structure begins at a start point, builds tension, reaches a point of climax, and then achieves resolution. This structure is found in many texts, written and spoken. LIWC-22 (pronounced “luke”) enables a computational analysis of various texts for various indicators of narrative structure, specifically, staging, plot progression, and cognitive (psychological) tensions. Come see how this tool is applied to various texts and how the resulting information may be used for research and analysis.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

1. Narrative Space and
Serialized Forms:
Story-spaces for the Mass Market in Victorian Print and
Contemporary Television
By
Laura Buchholz
Dissertation Defense April 22, 2014
2. Purpose:
This dissertation examines the relationship between textual
constructions of narrative space and the material forms of
serialized narratives across print and television medias (1).
By underscoring how the act of storytelling is affected by the
distinct intersection of narrative structure, material form, and
media delivery, this project articulates how each aspect acts upon
the other in a way that acknowledges no one characteristic can
be considered by itself (1).
3. Why Narrative Space?
“Narrative space” or “Storyworld Space” is not the same
as setting (3).
Setting: place and time, specific locations that exist
within the storyworld
Narrative space: constitutes the narrative world and
all it contains as a structure present in all narrative.
Contributes to the field in theorizing space in the context
of shift from separation of story/discourse to the
construction of “storyworlds” or mental models.
4. Why Serialization?
Defined: Hughes and Lund: “a continuing story over and
extended time with enforced interruptions” (29)
Material breaks already known to effect structure of
plot in time in unique way. How does space relate to
that structure?(35)
Dichotomy of large multi-focused storyworlds
presented in fragmented and limited parts foregrounds
configurative processes (35)
Serialization draws on a multimodality of media in
narrative discourse in a unique ways that extend the
interaction with the storyworld (35)
6. Theoretical Framework
Why Zoran?
Emphasis on
transforming space into
discourse (44)
Emphasis on the
simultaneity of process
(43)
Levels foreground how
much is left out of the
discourse (44)
Why Mysteries?
Immense open-ended
length (48-49)
Wide popularity (45,48)
Small 8 page penny-part
installments (48)
“Encyclopedic” nature
(50)
7. Implications
Spatially- Space and time are always intertwined in narrative as
opposed to two separate modes--narration and description (90).
Spatial Units- house
Serially-Progression from one spatial unit to another is affected by
limitations of serial installments (90). Spatial Complex/ Fields of
Visions
Critically- Reading the spatial structures in Mysteries shows how space
is a destabilizing force throughout the story- constructing London as
ultimately unknowable/ contrasted with space outside London (90).
Total space/Storyworld
11. Implications
Spatially- illustrations play a key role in establishing
cognitive entrance to the storyworld space that is masked
when moved for volume editions.
Serially-placement of illustrations in installments matters –
presentation of space tied to prefiguring and masking
future plotted events.
Critically- Jack Sheppard’s London is a place of
performance/stage/ and later self-aware as print media
13. Theoretical Framework
Michel de Certeau- Stories as “spatial trajectories” that
“traverse and organize places; they select and link them
together and make sentences out of them” (164)
James Phelan- Narrative progression is the structure by
which implied authors lead narrative audiences to
interpretive, ethical and aesthetic judgments Experiencing
Fiction. (165)
Mathew Bolton- Rhetorical implications of transferring
“media specific affordances” as ways of authorial
expression in narrative progression “across medial
boundaries” (183)
14.
15. Implications
Opening episodes- establish juxtaposition between
characters that move and characters that do not in relation
to the character's potential for agency (188).
Middle episodes- have self contained progression that
relies in part on progression through spaces in the
episode. Spatial progression becomes space a rhetorical
device that prompt and complicate audiences’ judgments
(213).
Final episodes-As progression of plot is altered, so is
progression of spatial trajectories- space takes on a
narrative function that potential change the rhetorical
configuration and judgments (216).
17. Theoretical Framework
Wiki’s display the product of the fan adapted narrative-
Storyworld adapted to new form with new narrative
affordances: Ryan, Murray, Booth (232).
Wiki’s display the process of reconfiguration and judgment
making between episodes: Lang, Mittell (234-35).
18. Why Lost?
Complex type of puzzle solving the show encouraged
included and at times necessitated understanding the
space (236).
No “official” configuration was ever released by the
show’s creators, leaving some questions unanswered with
multiple possibilities (238).
19. Implications
Organized information in a hierarchy that materially
separated “verifiable evidence” from “theories” (242)
Analysis reveals how multiple approaches to configuring
space are deployed by participants in a simultaneous fashion-
showing not just each theoretical model in practice, but how
these models interact (257).
Analysis of practice should act recursively on our theories
(262).
20. Findings:
Narrative/Seriality/Individua
l Works Narrative Studies:
Zoren’s framework is valuable and should be explored and utilized
further with emphasis on process of recursive revision and
reconfiguration (264)
Illustrations and verbal texts give each provide a means to “read” the
other even when discordant and counterfactual configurations are
presented.
Spatial trajectories of characters in televised media rhetorical mode
of narration/ Changing configuration in adaptation potential changes
rhetorical judgments.
Cooperative wiki’s demonstrate a synthesis of theoretical approaches
that accommodates cognitive dissonance in interpretation.
21. Material/Serial
Physical limitations of the installment length affects
modulation between locations (266)
Distance between picture and narration in placement
affects how the texts are read and reconfigured (266)
Serialized structure enhances themes of containment/
incarceration (266)
Fan wiki’s should how audiences fill in gaps between
episodes and constantly reconfigure based on new
information.
22. Interpretive
Attention to space in The Mysteries of London highlights unstable
nature of the storyworld Reynolds creates, as space is destabilized by
the continuous introduction of new information. (267)
Attention to space in Jack Sheppard highlights how London is
constructed as theatre- Jack is meant to be scene as private spaces
become spaces of performance and spectacle. (267)
Attention to space in LD and BH shows how agency is constructed
through the way characters move through space, and how while
Dickens highlights the connection between Chesney Wold and Bleak
house at the conclusion of the novel, Davies arrangement severs the
connection more definitively. (267-8)
Attention to how fans reconstruct the space of the Lost island shows
how locations and places always take on greater meaning- necessary
for comprehension of the whole. (268)
