TEXT 04
__________________________________
As (1) ______ result of the new
information technologies and computer-mediated
communications, contemporary
communication has become highly
multimodal moving, particularly, towards the
extensive use of (2) _______image, while
meaning is inevitably derived from ways that
are multimodal. Nowadays, almost all texts
consist of visual elements, which in
combination with language hold a prominent
role in conveying the essential information.
In this context, people, especially youths, are
exposed to (3) _______ variety of
multimodal texts, such as video games,
websites, picture books, school textbooks,
magazine articles, advertisements, and
graphic novels - that involve a complex
interplay of written text, visual images,
graphics, and design elements.
As a consequence of (4) _______
above social changes, the field of education,
in particular, the teaching and learning of
languages has been influenced, as the
traditional literacy pedagogy, which
emphasizes language as a central means of
meaning, has been challenged to expand
beyond the skills of encoding and decoding
texts. In this way, educators should draw on
the Multiliteracies framework and reconsider
their instructional approaches in order to
familiarize students, especially, foreign
language learners, with the multimodal
approach by accentuating the interplay of
language and image that are present in
conventional and electronic texts.
