Opis

Multimodal Signs of Learning proposes a methodology to uncover evidence of learning in students’ multimodal compositions. Informed by social semiotic theory, the book tracks representation of subject content from physical and embodied teaching resources to students’ hand-made artefacts and physical presentations.

Recenzje

Arlene Archer, Associate Professor, University of Cape Town
