  18. Digital advertisements on public buildings, images on websites and emails, screens on buses, train platforms for instances demand our attention as we wait. We live in a society that increasingly requires us to be visually literate. Multimodal texts have dominated pages in our books besides writing for a long period of time. The same phenomenon takes place on our screen recently, visual symbols and clicks are being deconstructed and replaced by communication of other modes (Jewitt, 2006a).

  19. There is an acknowledgement that the English Curriculum has to evolve according to the changing world to prepare children for the opportunities and challenges of life in the 21st century. Australiahas a long history of incorporating multimodal texts into the context of English learning (Curriculum Corporation., 1994; New South Wales Board of Studies, 1998). In the recent outlined Australia National English Curriculum, systematic exploration and production of multimodal texts have been introduced throughout the school years (National Curriculum Board, 2008). Ministry of Education (2006) of Ontario, Canada, has incorporated multimodal texts into the curriculum for young children as early as at stage one (p. 45). Multimodal texts are referred to as media texts in the curriculum, and are introduced in the English Curriculum guide as one of four strands: oral communication, reading, writing and media literacy. MOE Singapore has also introduced new English Language Curriculum in 2010 for primary and secondary schools to be implemented from 2010. In the new curriculum, viewing and representing skills are introduced as receptive and productive skills to incorporate a wide range of literacy information/functional texts (Singapore, 2010) In the UK, a new primary curriculum is being reviewed and this will be implemented in 2011.“Viewing”, is defined as a skill necessary for understanding and responding to information, and “broadcasting”is identified as one of the key skills required to present ideas and opinions. (Department for Children schools and families UK, 2009).
