Abstract

Language is not only verbal, but multimodal of discourse analysis also play vital role in understanding the text. The term multimodal literacy has been created in 2003 by Jewett & Chris, behind the term is the premise that the idea of literacy must be reconceived in order to encapsulate the variety of meaning-making modes that play a special role in electronic or print multimodal. Technological advances have necessitated the development of reading and writing skills that go beyond what is known in dealing with traditional multimodal, in teaching language and exams, and in receiving the arts.
