Learning environments can benefit from drawing on studies of film theory, the practices of the theatre, developments in the games industry, and oral storytelling, as well as theories of narrative. There is a need to tie in work in these areas to educational, cognitive, affective, and social explanations of learning (and their associated empirical results) in order to develop a better understanding of how to design interactive learning environments and a much more theoretically driven understanding of the relationship between the structure of the interaction, the associated emotional value and the quality of learning.The idea for this special issue came from papers presented at the Narrative and Interactive Learning Environments (NILE) 2006 conference. After a call for papers, six papers were accepted for publication–each of which explores issues in the relationship between narrative and interactive learning environments. In the first paper Hazel seeks to construct a rationale for the notion of a ‘‘narrative pedagogy’’. Going back to first principles, he seeks to focus on the complex and profound issue of pedagogy. The paper introduces an issue that may prompt an interesting debate amongst readers around what we understand of the brain’s structure and the extent to which we can know ourselves through its study. We believe that Hazel’s approach may be controversial but that his paper nevertheless makes a useful contribution to the important debate about how narrative can be coupled to the concerns of the pedagogue. A strong theoretical focus is also a characteristic of the second paper by Dolk and den Hertog, who provide an educational approach grounded in experience and data. Based on their extensive experience in the classroom, they describe their approach to helping student teachers learn to observe and interpret learner behaviour. Using a multimedia learning environment, they encourage students to build narratives about the connection between a learner’s behaviour and theory. Their approach involves a six step non-linear process that takes the student teacher from situation observation through generalization to a didactic approach for teacher education.
