This document discusses multimodal discourse analysis, which examines how meaning is made through the combination of words, images, sound, and other modes of communication. It provides background on how this approach draws from Halliday's social semiotics view of language. Examples are given of how visual elements like eye contact, perspective, and layout contribute to meaning-making. Genres like advertisements, news stories, and film trailers are discussed in terms of their illocutionary and perlocutionary acts. Limitations of multimodal discourse analysis are noted.
The slides contain a short account of the relationship between discourse analysis and interactional sociolinguistics linguistics. They also provide a short account of different approaches to politeness. The influence of Gumperz and Goffman on politeness and facework is highlighted.

· For example:
The Crisis relief is an organization that provides help to Asian countries in times of crisis. They train volunteers, raise awareness, and partner with other organizations to better help those in need. They produced an image that raises awareness about a present issue. In just black and white, a young distressed child is in the arms of a motherly figure. Even though the motherly figure’s face is covered, the emotion of the child’s pain is very apparent. The background looks unsanitary, as do the tattered clothes the young boy is wearing. The women’s body language is very nurturing, even with the pain the boy is in, the women seems collected. Around them are hands with thumbs up, along with the text, “Liking isn’t helping” and “Be a volunteer, Change a life”. This image targets users of social media through ethos, pathos, and logos to persuade them to change a life by volunteering.]

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

University of Sulaimani

Multimodal discourse
analysis
2. Multimodal discourse analysis considers how text
draw on modes of communication such as pictures,
film, video, images and sound in combination with
words to make meaning.
It has examined print genres as well as genres such as
web pages, film and television programs. it considers
how multimodal texts are designed and how semiotic
tools such as color, framing, focus and positioning
elements contribute to the making of meaning in the
text.
3. Background to Multimodal discourse analysis
Much of the work in multimodal discourse draws
from Halliday’s social semiotics approach to language,
a view that considers language as one among a number
of semiotic resources such as (gesture, images, music)
that people use to communicate, or to make meaning,
with each other.
4. Halliday (2009a) describes Three types of social
meanings, or functions that are drawn on
simultaneously in the use of language.
Ideational ( what the text is about)
Interpersonal ( relationship between participants)
Textual meaning (how the message is organized)
(Paltridge 2012)
5. The use of multimodal discourse both establishes a
‘proximity’ to the events and engages people in the
events. it compresses distance and brings images and
experiences into people’s homes. This moves the
viewer from a position of ‘spectator’ to a position of
‘witness’ of the events.
6. The multimodal use of discourse is as much a feature of
print genres as it is of television genres. The presentation of
Women in magazines, for example, relies not just on words
on the pages but as much on the image that are accompany
the words.
Machin and Thornborrow argue that print genres, such as
magazines, are not just selling magazines to their readers. It
also about selling values of independence, power and fun.
(Paltridge 2012)
7. Example of multimodal discourse
The social relationship between an image and its
viewer is strongly influenced by whether the subject in
the image established eye contact with the viewer or
does not. Each of possibilities could be seen as an
example of mood where the eye contact could suggest
a demand, whereas no eye contact might suggest an
offer.
8. The point of view , or perspective, of the image is
also relevant. For example, a horizontal image
suggests involvement as the viewer is on the same
level as the subject of the image. A high angle shot
might suggest superiority and low angle shot may
suggest respect.
9. Time magazine's picture of Michelle Obama
She looks straight at the camera, establishes eye
contact with the reader.
Her face occupies the whole page providing closeness.
The shot is horizontal, suggesting the reader is on the
same level as the subject of the image.
10. The layout and the placement of the image is also
significant in that they each convey a certain
information values well as communicate salience of
the message to the reader.
The image of Michelle Obama is centrally placed on
the page so as to be most-eye catching.
Occupies the whole page, dominating it in away gives
weight to the image.
Centrally framed with the text, showing how they
belong together ‘The meaning of Michelle.’
11.
12. Genre, speech act and multimodality
Van Leeuwen discusses the relationship between
speech acts and genre in relation to multimodality,
using these two notions to capture the ‘how’ vs the
‘what’ of multimodal communication.
A key point draws from speech act theory is both
(illocutionary act and perlocutionary act)
14. An advertisement may aim to persuade a person to
buy a particular product ( the illocutionary act)
If the person is convinced by the advertisement and
buys the product , this is the effect, or the
perlocutionary act.
16. Multimodal and news paper genre
Image nuclear news stories:
stories comprise just a photograph and a heading and/
or a caption
Newsbites: online newspaper texts which comprise a
headline and an image with hyperlink to a full story.
18. Multimodal and film trailers
Implicitly promotional : relates to information that is
part of the story of the film (diegetic information).
Explicitly promotional : they often mix together
information about the story of the film and information
that is not part of the story of the film (non-diegetic
information) such as voiceover commentaries,
evaluations and recommendations.
19.
20. Limitations of multimodal discourse analysis
The amount of time it takes to do this kind of analysis
The analysis at some stages can be quite technical, it
can also be very interpretative.
Multimodal analysis less often looks at readers’ or
viewers’ readings of texts
Less attention is given to the aspects of language
The issue of how the analyses can be linked to wider
social issues
