TEXT ADAPTATION
21st Century Literature
Lesson 3 WHAT IS ICT? ICT stands for 'Information Communication Technology'. Everyday usage of digital technology includes when you use a computer, tablet or cell phone, send email, browse the internet, make a video call - these are all examples of using basic ICT skills and technology to communicate. Information and communications technology (ICT) skills refer to one’s ability to converse with people through various technologies. Like information technology (IT), ICT refers to technology use for regular, everyday tasks: sending an email, making a video call, searching the internet, using a tablet or cell phone, and more. Ironically, ICT skills could also include the ability to use older communication technologies such as telephones, radios, and televisions. Typically, ICT experts are called upon to integrate old communication technology with the new technology. Almost every job requires some ICT skills, and many require hybrid skills, a skill set that is a mix of technical and non-technical skills. ICT SKILLS • Data Management and Queries Develop and manage data using spreadsheets to be able to analyze that data and recognize trends and patterns such as Microsoft Excel. • Online Research able to sift through all the information online to find what you need involving basic online information management skills. • Email Management and Setup able to effectively and successfully communicate via email. ICT SKILLS Social Media Management Use of social media such Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and Pinterest in valuable ways. • Desktop Publishing Creation of materials that need to be printed and distributed such as fliers, brochures, newsletters, and more. using desktop publishing software like MS Publisher, MS Powerpoint, MS Word, Print Setting , and etc. ICT SKILLS Online Collaboration Sharing information with your coworkers, or friends, online such as a meeting to a shared online calendar, providing feedback on a document through a web-based document application, and holding an online video conference with colleagues. • Smartphones and Tablets The use of smartphones and tablets so it is easily accessible during certain hours of the day. • Word Processing In this day and age, it is expected that individuals know how to use word processing technology to be able to produce written documents (including business letters, meeting minutes, and more) using a computer processor such as Microsoft Word. WHAT IS LITERARY ADAPTATION? • Literary adaptation is the adapting of a literary source (e.g. a novel, short story, poem) to another genre or medium, such as a film, stage play, or video game. • It refers to the process of translating a creative work from one medium to another: a novel adapted into a film, for example. Hamlet has been adapted into operas: Ambrose Thomas' 1868 version in French, and Franco Faccio's 1865 Amleto in Italian. WHAT IS LITERARY ADAPTATION? • It can also involve adapting the same literary work in the same genre or medium just for different purposes, e.g. to work with a smaller cast, in a smaller venue (or on the road), or for a different demographic group (such as adapting a story for children). Sometimes the editing of these works without the approval of the author can lead to a court case. • It also appeals because it obviously works as a story; it has interesting characters, who say and do interesting things. This is particularly important when adapting to a dramatic work, e.g. film, stage play, teleplay, as dramatic writing is some of the most difficult. To get an original story to function well on all the necessary dimensions—concept, character, story, dialogue, and action—is an extremely rare event performed by a rare talent. DIGITAL STORYTELLING The process of crafting the digital story builds communication, creativity, visual and sound literacy, and project management skills. Telling your stories with text, pictures, and your own narration is easy. Frames helps you engage your audience with features like pan and zoom, the ability to match frame duration to sound recording, and more.
