Multimodal English Teaching

A free webinar from TESOL's Applied Linguistics Interest Section (ALIS). Drawing on the socio-semiotic approach to education, this session advocates for multimodal approaches to teaching English as an additional language — combining oral communication, writing, images, and video rather than separating language strands. It covers classroom-ready approaches including multimodal identity texts, films as resources for multimodal literacy, graphic novels, reading literature through drawing, and digital storytelling. Presented by Dr. Andreea Cervatiuc (University of British Columbia), Chair of TESOL's Applied Linguistics Interest Section.
