Multimodality in Academic Teaching and Learning
Arne Krause
University of Hamburg
Abstract
Academic teaching and learning is obviously multimodal. Especially the widespread use of visual media in academic teaching points to the importance of applying theoretical frameworks that incorporate multimodality. Still, due to the complexity of the knowledge that is processed in universities, most analyses of academic teaching and learning focus on language. Whilst there are a few recent exceptions such as the contributions in Archer/Breuer (2016) and Fortanet Gómez/Crawford Camiciottoli (2015) or the analyses of Jörissen (2013) and Brinkschulte (2015), there are still many aspects of multimodality in academic teaching and learning to be addressed.
Looking into data from the euroWiss-project, a research project on the comparative analysis of academic teaching and learning (cf. Thielmann/Redder/Heller 2015), this presentation will give insights into the knowledge transfer in academic lectures as well as into studential notes taken in the analyzed lectures. The analysis will be approached from the perspective of the action-centered language theory Functional Pragmatics (cf. Redder 2008). Thus, the presentation will be focusing on methodological, empirical and theoretical aspects of linguistic multimodality.
