Abstract

In the digital age, multimodal storytelling is a versatile approach to the traditional way of telling stories. One of its key features is the harnessing of a range of multimedia tools for an immersive experience that brings narratives to life. This chapter explores creative ways in which language teachers can integrate collaborative multimodal storytelling projects into their teaching repertoires. It examines the perceived pedagogical impact of collaborative multimodal storytelling projects, drawing on data collated from teachers and students at a school in Romania, as well as artefact analysis. Analysis of data revealed that despite being perceived as digital natives, few students actually possess the necessary skills to communicate in an increasingly complex multimodal world. By merging insights from multiple sources, this case study aims to foster a deeper understanding of the digital landscape and its potential for empowering learners as effective multimodal communicators.
