Abstract

In this entry, we argue that to promote multimodal literacy in online writing classes, instructors should address the following five practices in their course design: • Incorporate multimodal assignments and appropriate scaffolding tools; • Use multimodal instructional tools to teach and model multimodal composition; • Provide multimodal feedback to students' compositions; • "Teach" technology through the use of media labs; • Encourage reflection as a significant part of students' learning process. In so doing, we discuss each practice in depth, addressing the reasons and benefits for incorporating each, as well as advice about how to implement them. By implementing these practices in their online courses, instructors can successfully design classes that promote multimodal literacy.
