El valor pedagógico de las narrativas transmedia: los casos de Barbie y Dragon Ball para el desarrollo del pensamiento crítico

Abstract

This research work aims to identify the influence that transmedia narratives had through two productions, Dragon Ball and Barbie, in the training of adults born in 1990 and 2000, and how this can be used in the training of critical thinking. The contribution of different sources that theorize about the effect of transmedia narratives, and about the positive and negative impact they can have, were used. Concepts such as millennials, generation z, pedagogical value, development of critical thinking, transmedia narratives were explored, behavior models, values and beliefs. To get closer to answering the question that was posed, a qualitative approach was used and with it a survey was designed in which each question is created so that the adult of the 1990 and 2000 generations responds according to their experience. Finally, it was identified based on the information collected that in this type of series a diversity of identifiable and assimilable values is proposed depending on the capacity for analysis or support that the person who consumes them has, which can help develop creativity if they are used in the right way. correct in the teaching processes, although it was also identified that some chapters of the proposed series emit information that, when not properly analyzed, does not help in learning processes, so a positive and a negative part can coexist in the same medium.
