Abstract:
|
This experimental study examines young adults’ expectations of hard news stories and whether narrative storytelling can positively influence their reading experiences for comprehension, learning, interest and enjoyment. Participants reported an increased understanding and interest in an Iraq story after reading a narrative version than what they had expected. They enjoyed and stayed interested in a murder story better than the traditional storytelling group, which reported learning less and losing interest more quickly than they had expected. |
