Can poetry and the internet go hand in hand when it comes to teaching poetry in high school? How do students position themselves as reading subjects, and how can keep blogs in class help them achieve that goal? What impact does a blog very specific system of enunciation have on teaching literature? What multimodal reading and writing practices are developed in the process? What range of phenomena do they clearly give rise to, as far as reading is concerned? We carefully analyzed the content of a blog called “i-voix” and put both students' and teachers' reports on their blogging experience under scrutiny. Bearing in mind that using the digital environment certainly doesn't do it all, this study demonstrated that the reading practices involved in the process of blog keeping do indeed increase and intensify, as they are ultimately allowed to materialize via that medium. Finally, the very fact that keeping blogs is not yet common practice in schools may be the reason why it gives birth to stimulating and creative literary experiences that all students share in and that brings them together as part of the greater reading community.

Linda Hutcheon is a pioneer on cinema adaptation, with her book A Theory of Adaptation (2006), where she envisions adaptation as a transmedial process rather than as a faithful relationship a film must respect with a book. She has rejuvenated research in the field, overwhelmed dead-ends encountered by the adaptation critique, and offered thrilling perspectives on how to conceive such relationships between medias as different as comics, novels, drama, opera, video games, etc. Although her research interests now shifted to the operatic genre, she was as kind as to answer my questions for this first dossier of Transcr(é)ation.

This article examines the dialectic relationship between research processes and outcomes, based on the specific case of a participatory research project entitled “Pop-Part, les quartiers populaires au prisme de la jeunesse” (Pop-Part, Distressed Neighborhoods Through the Lens of Youth), a component of the TRYSPACES collaborative and comparative research partnership. Throughout that research project, our participatory ambition led us to multiply the ways in which we constructed and reproduced its results. It also gave rise to diversified research outcomes which, in turn, fed into and modified the research process. It is this feedback loop that we explore here. Starting from the principle that research outcomes allow us to show results while also orienting our analytical work, we hypothesize a dialectical relationship between outcomes and the research process itself. How does the definition and implementation of a research project orient the outcomes it produces? Conversely, how do the outcomes of a research project participate in orienting its process and the questions it addresses?

This study presents a critical examination of the methodology used in the ADOES project on adolescent girls' relationship to public space in their Montréal neighbourhood, as informed by participatory (and feminist) research approaches. With the goal of documenting participatory research with the adolescents and encouraging its development without diminishing its specificity, this study demonstrates how the challenging nuances between adolescent participants and participatory research are also synonymous with obstacles and opportunities. After characterizing the factors related to adolescent girlhood that might influence their participation in the research, we will evaluate the benefits of using another format and measurement of participation that is better suited to participants' lived experiences and specific restrictions. The image of a kaleidoscope is used as an analogy to demonstrate how successive groups of participants follow one another over time, and how stepwise co-construction of research knowledge and modalities can create a rich process of arrangement-rearrangement of methodology, images and knowledge.

This article offers an overview of how the concept “gaming capital” has been mobilized in the anglophone literature, through a series of textometric analyses. Although it quickly appears that this notion shares many similarities with the concept of “literacy”, both of these notions also have many diverging points which merit further scientific consideration. In this contribution, we therefore collect in a systematic way studies referring to gaming capital and to the work of Mia Consalvo, which offered the first operating definition of gaming capital. Through keywords and correspondence analyses, we then identify five key thematic ensembles, namely 1) capital parameters, 2) learning and understanding, 3) community studies, 4) identity and empowerment, and 5) instruments and signs of capital. In doing so, this study highlights the evolution of the concept of literacy, which has surpassed educational issues. By identifying these five ensembles, it also shows its proximity with the notion of gaming capital and thus potential areas of interest for game literacy, where further research could benefit critical media education, or the research field as a whole.
