Week two

as a group we came upon the idea for fulfilling the brief of creating an artefact for children by producing an interactive fairytale for children aged 6 to 7. It was agreed that this artefact would be multimedia with elements of video and audio according to our specialisms. At this point I did some research into websites that told fairytales and traditional tales in an interactive fashion and found that there were plenty that incorporated both sounds and visuals interactively. Following further research it was discovered there was an educational element that could be incorporated into the product. In year two at primary School as part of key stage one in the national curriculum children are required to learn about fairytales and traditional stories as part of their English literacy criteria and this meant our interactive fairytale could have a role within schools if it was marketed correctly.
