Poljudnoznanstvena slikanica o netopirjih

Jager, Klara (avtor), Bricelj, Suzana (mentor), Nabernik, Marija (mentor)

V magistrskem delu opišem postopek raziskave in izdelave poučne slikanice brez besedila. S pomočjo estetske poučne pripovedi predstavim glavne značilnosti netopirja in njegovega načina življenja. Namen slikanice je ustvariti nasprotje zmotnim negativnim mitom o netopirjih in ponuditi znanstveno točno in razvedrilno vsebino za otroke od petega do devetega leta starosti. Serija 13 celostranskih ilustracij nosi istočasno dve vlogi – informativnost in razvedrilo – ter ima namen podučitve splošne javnosti, predvsem otrok, o netopirjih. Vključitev pripovedi in domišljijskih elementov z namenom doseganja razvedrilne note slikanice argumentiram na podlagi strokovnih analiz sodobne poučne literature za otroke. Pri tem si pomagam s strokovno literaturo, ki se ukvarja s sodobnim trendom podiranja mej med stvarno in domišljijsko književnostjo za otroke v namene poučevanja. Pripoved svoje slikanice oblikujem na osnovi besedila Clare D. Pierson z naslovom Mali netopir, ki ni želel zaspati (The Little Bat Who Whouldn’t Go to Bed). Med načrtovanjem vizualne pripovedi zgodbo skrajšam in preoblikujem ter določim drugačen naslov: Noč ima ušesa, dan ima oči. Slikanica je oblikovana brez besed in sloni na cilju krepitve otroške vizualne pismenosti. Za dodatno pedagoško delo ob branju slikanice oblikujem tudi enostranski priročnik za odrasle, ki lahko z otrokom po prvem samostojnem branju slikanice nadaljujejo pogovor in učenje.

Izvleček

In my master's thesis, I describe researching and producing an educational picturebook without text. Through an aesthetic educational narrative, I present the main features of the bat and its way of life. The picturebook aims to create a counterpoint to the erroneous negative myths about bats and to offer scientifically accurate and entertaining content for children aged five to nine years. The series of 13 full-page illustrations serves the dual purpose – informing and entertaining – and educates the general public, especially children, about bats. I argue for the inclusion of narrative and imaginative elements in order to achieve the entertainment aspect of the picturebook on the basis of expert analyses of contemporary educational literature for children. In doing so, I draw on the professional literature dealing with the contemporary trend of breaking down the boundaries between factual and imaginative literature for children for teaching purposes. I am structuring the narrative of my picturebook around a text by Clare D. Pierson, The Little Bat Who Wouldn't Go to Bed. In the process of designing the visual narrative, I am shortening and reworking the story and giving it a different title: The Night has Ears, The Day has Eyes. The picturebook is designed without words and is based on the goal of strengthening children's visual literacy. For additional pedagogical work, I am also designing a one-page guide for adults to read along with the picturebook so that they can continue the conversation and learning with the child after the first independent reading of the picturebook.
