Abstract

Semana Mitomultimedia is an activity carried out by students of Language and Literature of 2nd ESO (aged 13 to 14) during a whole week. Our aim was to merge our students good command of new technologies with the development of their reading process, which is normally much less attractive to them. To do that, we used the book Tales and Legends of Mythology heroes by Christian Grenier, introducing the topic of Classic Myths in our project. We chose the weblogs as a tool to work on the book. Weblogs contained compulsory sections (such as a summary of chapters, an imaginary trip to the places related to the mythological hero, or songs which portray the vital experience of the hero) with other sections created according to students creativity (imaginary interviews, letters, etc). This unusual combination has turned out to be satisfactory to everybody.
