ENGL 427 Multimodal Composition

Focused study on ways that modes (i.e., linguistic, visual, aural, spatial, and gestural) work together to create complex compositions. Students learn theories-influenced by the work of social semioticians, rhetoricians, and linguists-that invite them to think critically as composers about their future choices in modal designs as they are influenced by contexts, audience, culture, history, and materiality. In addition, students create their own multimodal compositions that reflect their career interests/concentrations.
