Abstract

This paper will focus on a new approach to teaching that integrates digital literacy and science fiction into elementary school settings. The approach combines elements of constructivist teaching methods, Science Fiction Prototyping (SFP), the exquisite corpse model and social media to engage young learners. This paper includes background information gathered from previous literature on the effects of constructivist approaches and new technological advances within classroom environments and then analyzes the effects of a new platform called MySciFiStory.​com that hopes to combine these approaches to benefit elementary students and educators.
