Literacy, Media, and Education Visual Culture and Art Theory Discourse Analysis in Language Studies

Abstract

This paper examines the differences between reading print-based texts and multimodal texts within the context of changed literacy practices. The author closely analyses aspects of a novel, a picture book and an internet site to determine the similarities and differences in the way readers would process each text. The ‘affordances’ of modes are considered in relation to a text’s purpose and meaning-making involved.
