-
A multimodal text combines two or more variations of communication through either linguistic, visual, audio, gestural, or spatial means.
-
Examples of multimodal texts include picture books, web pages with audio or video, or a live performance of a play.
-
Multimodal does not mean multimedia. Multimodal engage multiple modes of communication.
-
Ultimately, students are providing analysis of the multimodal texts, but first, they should summarize without judgment.
-
Students should practice evaluating the use of non-verbal elements that may affect the impact of the intended message.
-
Many times, students glean meaning from messages based on non-verbal elements without even realizing it. Messages delivered verbally are still considered text, as well as the non-verbal elements of the media such as graphics, images, color choices, music choices, etc.
-
Analysis of all elements of media (including background images and text) should be taken into account.
-
A literal question is one that can be easily answered by locating information within the text.
-
An interpretive question involves close reading and drawing conclusions based upon the reader’s interpretation of the information in the text.
-
These are not answered with opinions; rather, they require the understanding of clues within the text.
-
Example: What is the author’s purpose?
-
An applied question is predominantly an opinion question usually connected to the real world. These questions can be difficult to assess since there is not a right or wrong answer, but the students need to have textual support for their opinion.
|
Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
