| Abstract: | This session explored how a multimodal approach allows teachers to use poetry as a means of developing students' language proficiency. Multimodality is defined as the crafted integration of two or more ways, or modes, of communication, so that their combined meaning as a whole is greater than either mode separately or their simple combination. (Dressman 2010: 71) It usually, hut not exclusively, involves the use of digital technology and during this session the potential of such tools as a means of not only teaching English but also as a way of engaging digital natives was discussed. |
