Frank Sligo – English Teaching: Practice and Critique, 2015
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore how student learning materials, such as textbooks, are becoming more oriented toward multi-modal approaches using visuality and orality. While such approaches may help students to understand and then to reproduce taught materials, the objective of this paper is to question whether they are serving…

Rose, Miranda L. – American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 2013
Purpose: There is a 40-year history of interest in the use of arm and hand gestures in treatments that target the reduction of aphasic linguistic impairment and compensatory methods of communication (Rose, 2006). Arguments for constraining aphasia treatment to the verbal modality have arisen from proponents of constraint-induced aphasia therapy…

Boleyn, Elizabeth C. – ProQuest LLC, 2013
Unknowingly, much of the population of the Western World are thinking machines who live and learn isolated from somatic experiences. They distrust their bodies in the learning process and are stuck living out unquestioned realities of embodied socioculturalism and rationalism which guide decision making, learning and ways of being. Considering a…

Darrington, Brett; Dousay, Tonia – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2014
One of the reasons that many secondary students fail English classes is because they are not motivated to write. This literature review was conducted to look into the use of multimodal works to increase the motivation for struggling students to write. Change theory was used to evaluate the benefits of multimodal works compared to more traditional…

Morawski, Cynthia M.; Hayden, Kimberley; Nutt, Aileen; Pasic, Nikolas; Rogers, Angela; Zawada, Violet – International Journal of Education & the Arts, 2014
Pertinent research literature recognizes the importance of using multimodalities to enhance and extend ways of learning across the curriculum in such subject areas as literacy, geology, media studies, physical education, social studies and disabilities studies. As an action researcher who constantly seeks ways to improve my own classroom practice,…

Miles, Nathan. G.; Soares da Costa, Tatiana P. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2016
A student response system (clickers) was introduced into a second year introductory biochemistry class to improve student engagement and performance. The class was delivered in both internal and distance education (DE) modes, with the DE students receiving recordings of the lectures (including clicker activities). However, there was concern over…

Ankad, Roopa B.; Shashikala, G. V.; Herur, Anita; Manjula, R.; Chinagudi, Surekharani; Patil, Shailaja – Advances in Physiology Education, 2015
PowerPoint presentations (PPTs) have become routine in medical colleges because of their flexible and varied presentation capabilities. Research indicates that students prefer PPTs over the chalk-and-talk method, and there is a lot of debate over advantages and disadvantages of PPTs. However, there is no clear evidence that PPTs improve student…

Taylor, Shay – Odyssey: New Directions in Deaf Education, 2015
For many educators, working with students who were deaf or hard of hearing was the need to have "access." Access to technology was the tool of choice for providing integration that has come to be so much more than gadgets. It is intercurricular--math software incorporates reading, science websites support language skills. It is…

Fors, Vaike; Backstrom, Asa; Pink, Sarah – Mind, Culture, and Activity, 2013
This article outlines the implications of a theory of "sensory-emplaced learning" for understanding the interrelationships between the embodied and environmental in learning processes. Understanding learning as multisensory and contingent within everyday place-events, this framework analytically describes how people establish themselves as…

Mirus, Gene; Napoli, Donna Jo – Journal of Multilingual Education Research, 2019
Encouraging relaxed and playful interaction over stories naturally fosters language interaction and both preliteracy [hereafter (pre)literacy skills] and literacy without anxiety. Reading for pleasure is valuable for young hearing children -- we know that, it is among the most beloved family rituals. In this article we argue that reading for…

Cash, Carla D.; Allen, Sarah E.; Simmons, Amy L.; Duke, Robert A. – Journal of Research in Music Education, 2014
This study was designed to investigate the extent to which the presentation of an auditory model prior to learning a novel melody affects performance during active practice and the overnight consolidation of procedural memory. During evening training sessions, 32 nonpianist musicians practiced a 13-note keyboard melody with their left…

The current study evaluated preference for mode of instruction (i.e., visual or vocal) for four children diagnosed with a language-based learning disability. Each participant was an elementary student who was initially referred to a neuropsychology clinic specializing in learning disabilities. As a part of the evaluation, measures of each…

Lundström, Stefan; Olin-Scheller, Christina – Education Inquiry, 2014
By taking two different kinds of role playing as examples, this article explores how semiotic resources are utilised within a certain context. Regarding these role-playing activities as examples of participative narratives, we discuss how the playing and fiction interaction works as semiotic remediation practices for teenagers and young adults.…

Drew, Lara – Canadian Journal for the Study of Adult Education, 2014
In this paper I employ a narrative method to explore the learning processes of adult activists engaged in activism. Drawing on the story of one animal activist, I explain the embodied learning processes in a direct action environment. I explore how emotions and the body interplay with learning, which moves beyond a purely cognitive or rational…

Berge, Kjell Lars; Evensen, Lars Sigfred; Thygesen, Ragnar – Curriculum Journal, 2016
The model presented in this article aspires to represent a theoretically valid and coherent definition and description of writing, as a basis for teaching and assessing writing as a key competency in school. It represents a critique as well as an extension of previous alternatives in that it views writing as a culturally and individually…
