B-learning for Literary Studies in the European Space of Higher Education

Abstract

This report presents the work of LEETHi ( Spanish and European Literatures from Text to Hypertext ), a research group based at Universidad Complutense Madrid, whose projects have focused on the teaching of literature from an intercultural perspective while also helping students to develop competence in information literacy, following the impact of entrepreneurial activities on the academic research system. These projects address the potential role that the Social Sciences and Humanities (Education and Literature, in particular) can play with regard to the imminent development of a European knowledge-based society and its educational, ethical and social implications. Hypertextual models are employed by LEETHi to create new educational spaces that can generate novel learning processes and new forms of production of information and transmission of knowledge, according to European Convergence didactic patterns. The report focuses particularly on the practical outcomes of LEETHi's projects.
