Shakespeare requires a cognitive leap made doubly problematic by cultural distance. In many ways‚ it’s like learning another language‚ hence the title of my investigation. I intend to explore the literacies that utilise and build upon the traditional linguistic and dramatic techniques‚ emphasising also the musicality of the text (rhythm and iambic pentameter) as well as the logical/mathematical spheres (text decoding). I also aim to explore and add to the digital technologies that encourage student engagement
