Doing Digital Multimodal Composing with Generative Artificial Intelligence
The widespread availability of generative artificial intelligence tools has had a dramatic effect on language education, transforming how we think about and go about writing. This includes ‘multimodal composing’, which combines moving image, soundtrack, speech, and on-screen writing in digital communication. In this article, we focus on the potentials and pitfalls of generative artificial intelligence in a pedagogy of digital multimodal composing…
GenAI ‐Assisted Digital Multimodal Composing in Tesol Teacher Education
This study explored how pre‐service TESOL teachers integrated GenAI tools into a Digital Multimodal Composing (DMC) project, composing a website, at a Hong Kong university. Specifically, it explored their decision‐making and cognitive engagement in the DMC process when they had autonomy in the use of GenAI tools. Drawing on a social practice perspective of literacy, the research explores how GenAI supports or complicates multimodal composing and …
Digital Ethnography
Digital ethnography is an approach to the study of communication practices, social practices, and cultures, both “in” and “for” online, digital spaces. Increasingly, online and offline practices have become intertwined in people's lives, and, as a result, studies of digital spaces must find ways to account for this complex, online/offline dynamic. Digital ethnography provides an approach that is capable of doing so in an ecologically valid way. I…
Disciplinary tribes and the discourse of mainstream media expert opinion articles
Much applied linguistic research has investigated how experts from different disciplines – different “disciplinary tribes” – present knowledge claims, drawing on taken-for-granted disciplinary ideologies and epistemologies. However, this research has mainly focused on specialist to specialist communication rather than specialist to non-specialist communication. This article aims to fill this gap by examining a corpus of mainstream media “expert o…
Representations of diversity, equity, and inclusion in airline safety videos
Airline safety videos are an interdiscursive corporate genre which blends safety and branding discourses. It is a site where corporate identities are constructed using a range of linguistic and multimodal resources. This article presents a critical multimodal genre analysis of how corporate values of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) are discursively represented in two airline safety videos created 11 years apart to map the diachronic changes…
Digital multimodal composing in L2 classrooms
Research on digital multimodal composing (DMC) in second language (L2) classrooms has proliferated considerably in recent years, to a large extent in response to the changing digital and multimodal communication landscape. This article offers a research agenda on DMC in L2 classrooms. We begin with a theoretically oriented overview of DMC scholarship. We then examine seven research themes for future research inquiry, from which we draw seven rese…

Remix Culture and English Language Teaching
A number of scholars maintain that the affordances of digital media to easily copy, edit, and share digital content has led to the development of a remix culture in which the amateur creation of cultural artifacts—often remixes, mashups, or parodies based on the creative works of others—has proliferated. At the same time, in TESOL there is increasing interest in engaging students with processes of digital multimodal composition, focusing not only…
Embedding Digital Literacies in English Language Teaching
As a result of recent developments in digital technologies, new genres as well as new contexts for communication are emerging. In view of these developments, this article argues that the scope of English language teaching be expanded beyond the traditional focus on speech and writing to the production of multimodal ensembles, drawing on a range of other semiotic modes. The article describes an undergraduate course in English for science at a univ…

Professional reasoning, legal cultures, and arbitral awards
The practice of international commercial arbitration draws together a diverse range of participants (arbitrators, counsel and parties), from a wide range of linguistic and cultural backgrounds. In the face of this diversity, there have been attempts to standardize and harmonize arbitration procedures by combining procedures from different legal traditions, yet the potential for intercultural communication difficulties remains. This paper evaluate…
Designing, Implementing, and Evaluating an Online Resource for Professional Legal Communication Skills
The ability to use language effectively is an essential part of legal training and has been identified as an area of concern for Hong Kong law students (Redmond and Roper 2001). In order to become proficient members of the legal discourse community, law students must develop an understanding of conventional writing forms, processes and practices as well as patterns of legal reasoning and problem-solving. Although lawyers in the main agree that co…
