The multimodal piece I made is a zine about the book I read for my video book talk! The book I read was Monarca by Eva Aridjis. With using my notes and quotes from the book I was able to piece together different parts that stuck out to me as important ideas that I wanted to show through imagery and words. This caused me to think about the topics in a different mode. I’m not just simply writing a paper, but instead I’m portraying my thoughts through pictures. I think this is such a unique way to reveal my learning from the story.
Doing visual practices can allow students to process their learning in a visual way. Like I said before, writing about these topics is very different from actually creating visuals! This caused me to think deeply of how I want to portray my learning and selecting specific themes from the book that I think would be best as a visual. This sparks creativity and enjoyment into learning because students can do whatever they want to portray their learning. Creating something deeper and artistic makes the work more personable. Allowing the learner to truly connect to what they have learned. With multimodal projects, the possibilities seem endless!
Here is the monarch zine that I created:
