This course explores the possibilities for reading and writing a wide variety of multimodal texts in the junior and senior high school context, and will also examine educational theories that link practices of multimodal design to a reader's construction of literary meaning. Students will engage in multiple opportunities for text creation across sign systems and forms of representation (including comics, film, audio and digital texts, etc.). Prerequisite: An EDSE curriculum course or an EDEL curriculum course.
