Bridging the Multimodal Gap translates Theory into Practice and will encourage teachers, including WPAs, TAs, and contingent faculty, to experiment with multiple modes of communication in their projects.
Contributors address starter subjects like using comics, blogs, or Multimodal journals; more ambitious topics such as Multimodal assignments in online instruction or digital story telling; and complex issues like assessment, transfer, and rhetorical awareness.
After an introductory section reviewing the Theory literature, chapters present research on implementing Multimodal composition in diverse contexts.
Essays explore how multimodality can be implemented in courses and narrow the gap between those who regularly engage in this instruction and those who are still considering its scholarly and pedagogical value.
