Using multimodal texts to build engagement and achievement in literacy

Authors
Abstract

That students find working on multimodal texts engaging isn't surprising - but what would be surprising is if that spilled over into increased engagement and achievement with traditional print texts. This is exactly what the author of this article found in an exploratory e-learning research project. Here she discusses this finding and explores some of the possible reasons behind it.
