Abstract
|
Nowadays, students are highly engaged in various texts due to their active participation in social media and heavy usage of mobile devices in a daily basis. Such daily activities instigated the need for a change in the teaching and learning of ESL lessons to aid students’ abilities to make meaning and make sense of the different texts which students come across in their daily activities. This paper puts the framework of the Multimodal approaches in the restructuring of the teaching and learning of ESL with the aim of investigating its effects and students perspectives on the use of multimodal approaches. Using focus group interviews, this qualitative case study examines the effectiveness of ESL teaching and learning using the Multimodal approaches among 15 students in a private school in Penang, Malaysia. The results confirm the need for to accommodate teaching and learning with the use of multimodal pedagogical practices as it promotes positive learning outcomes among students. The implications of this study suggest that the multimodal approaches used in the teaching and learning of ESL promotes students’ autonomy in learning, improves motivation to learn and accomodates to various learning styles.
