  • Developing multimodal literacy in visual art education classes
    Batič, Janja ; Krašna, Primož, 1976-
    This report presents possibilities of developing multimodal literacy in visual art classes. In the learning unit "Word as an element of art", elementary school pupils from eighth grade were able to ... get acquainted with Word Art as a special form of artistic expression. The pupils sought the answer to the question "What do I want to communicate to the world?" The first part of the task required pupils to write the original answer to the question, design it with visual means and place it in space (spatial installation). In the second part of the work, they wrote a short poem, designed it and projected in the space (school hall) according to the American artist Jenny Holzer. It turned out that contemporary art practices have a distinctly multimodal nature, therefore their inclusion in the visual arts classes allows pupils to develop multimodal literacy.
