spatial – this mode emphasizes space such as the way an infographic might be composed to make it easier to read/understand quickly.
Some examples of multi-modal texts are: comics, podcasts, vodcasts, posters, performance dances, graphic novels/novellas, video songs, and many more!
By changing one of your previous projects into a a multimodal text of your choice, you will learn more about the relationships between multimodality, its rhetorical purposes, and effects. This learning will further develop your ability to adapt to different rhetorical situations. While the sky is the limit in terms of the form you select, the range of possibilities can actually be challenging as well. You will want to carefully consider the form that you feel will work best for your subject and purpose. Please consider carefully the due dates (see "Project 3 Schedule") and thus time restraints as you decide on the kind of multimodal text you plan to produce.
**You are welcome to work with one classmate or more (5 students max. per group). To this end, you will post your project 3 proposal on d2l discussion board so you can all share your ideas with each other and reach out to each other if you decide to collaborate. You will also post your first, second and final drafts on the board so we can see each other's multi-modal projects as well as appreciate and celebrate our creativity!
