Abstract | Digital literacies are ways of reading and writing carried out through digital devices and on the Internet (Ware, Kern, and Warschauer 2016). They are also called twenty-first-century literacies, multiliteracies, new literacies, and new media literacies (Kist 2013). While digital literacies often play an important role in how we communicate in today's world, successfully navigating digital literacies is often given little attention in today's schools. There are numerous components of digital literacy skills; one important aspect is the ability to create digital multimodal compositions, which is the focus of this article. The article begins with a definition of digital multimodal composition (DMC). It then explores the benefits of incorporating DMC in the English language classroom. The subsequent section covers important considerations for teachers before they start a digital multimodal project or task. The article then provides suggestions for five classroom applications of DMCs. Finally, the article touches on assessment for DMC. (ERIC). |
