Abstract

This paper examines how narrative-centered learning environments are establishing themselves as affordable and effective alternatives to traditional text-based delivery models, static computer-based tutoring systems, and immersive, role-playing computer game-based resources. Drawing upon long-standing cultural traditions while embodying constructivist principles and relying on cognitive theories that detail the processing of word-driven information, narrative-centered learning environments are quietly, and quite naturally, winning over the minds of educators and students alike.
