ACMI: Education is the primary source that I had used to develop my mini-unit plan. This resource, in particular, influenced how I constructed my mini-unit plan around English and the Media. This source gave insight into how I could redefine English studies, making it more relevant and engaging to students of the 21st century. From this resource, I was also able to understand how English studies could reach the redefinition level of the SAMR model, which, in turn, generated various ideas.

Inanimate Alice - Inanimate Alice

Inanimate Alice - Inanimate Alice | Teaching during COVID-19 | Scoop.it

Classrooms around the world are now using Inanimate Alice as an across-the-curriculum approach to teaching and learning.

Inanimate Alice tells the story of a girl growing up dreaming of becoming a game designer one day. Uniquely, it is a tale of progressive complexity, each episode reflecting Alice’s age and digital competency as she grows up. 


 First meet Alice age 8, drawing a stickman and taking photos to send to her Dad. Grow up beside her through school and college during which time she hones her artistic and technological skills, relentlessly pursuing her dream. 


 Classrooms around the world are now using Inanimate Alice as an across-the-curriculum approach to teaching and learning. This is a story for teachers and students who wish to explore the nature of ‘born digital’ narratives. Free from the constraints of print formats, the text becomes dynamic, driving the story forwards, and the ambient sounds complement the immersive nature of the story. 


 The format targets students 10-14 years of age: colourful magazine pages attract younger students, while the later episodes explore more complex themes. Resources and activities help teachers integrate Inanimate Alice into the curriculum. 


 This is a story of exploration. An adventure. Take a look at the timeline of Alice’s adventures and find the best place to start for you.

Kim Flintoff's insight:
Inanimate Alice will be well-known to many Australian educators - Education Services Australia was a longtime champion of this platform and there are many teaching resources available to support its use.  

Inanimate Alice is a member of the Learning Futures Network.
