Editor's Notes

- Theories on the visual: cognitive load & multimodality Social semiotics - multimodality Meaning through different modes & their interactions Modes: written text, speech, gesture, images, aural etc. Mode classifies a ‘channel’ of representation or communication (Kress, 2010). Accession, creation and re-creation in other modes & interaction of modes – can be sources of understanding and learning. Jewitt, C. (ed.) (2009) The Routledge Handbook of Multimodal Analysis.
