This paper reports an exploratory case study with children aged from 10-13, into specific aspects of narrative. The functionalities of a video creation and editing application, in combination with researchers’ input to the program, are used to elicit children’s narrative perception and trigger a creative process. During this activity children adopted existing techniques in order to record and produce their own videos, as reproductions of a well known fairy tale. The learning process and the children’s products were examined in terms of their relation to specific aspects of narrative. The process is considered as a chance for children to shape their own authentic hermeneutic stances on the story. The videos are seen as constructions employing different media modalities such as written text, verbal elements (voice narration) and dialogic elements in written form (dialogue bubbles). Two main strategies employed by the children are distinguished, one emphasizing written elements, and one exploiting a wider range of available functionalities, producing a multimodal narrative. Preliminary data are reported to inform further exploration.
