商品描述

This book examines the experiences of adult ESL (English as a Second Language) learners in New York, paying particular attention to the relationship between their professional identities and multimodal composing practices in English classroom. The author uses an (auto-)ethnographic framework to investigate how previously-constructed identities of a professional nature aided the students in the design of multimodal texts including photographs and written material in English. This small-scale study is contextualised in relation to current research in the fields of multimodality, identity construction and teaching methodology, and the author also draws on Kress' theory of visual semiotics. Finally, the book provides detailed descriptions and suggestions for multimodal lessons which could be delivered in ESL classrooms in other settings, including multimodal roleplays, theatre games, and model discussion questions and answers. This book will be of interest to ESL/EFL and TESOL researchers and practitioners, as well as pre-service teachers and MA TESOL students.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了在紐約的成人英語作為第二語言(ESL)學習者的經驗,特別關注他們的專業身份與英語課堂中的多模態創作實踐之間的關係。作者採用(自)民族誌框架來研究先前構建的專業身份如何幫助學生設計包括照片和書面材料在內的多模態文本。這項小規模研究與當前多模態性、身份建構和教學方法領域的研究相結合,作者還引用了Kress的視覺符號學理論。最後,本書提供了詳細的描述和建議,適用於在其他環境中的ESL課堂中進行的多模態課程,包括多模態角色扮演、戲劇遊戲以及模型討論問題和答案。本書將吸引ESL/EFL和TESOL研究者及實務工作者,以及預備教師和碩士TESOL學生的興趣。
