| Summary: | This paper looks into the possibility of incorporating multimodal practices in
initial language teacher training at a university in Vietnam. It starts with a careful review
of the concepts of multimodality as well as merits and challenges of applying a multimodal
approach to language teaching. Then comes the description of the author’s multimodal lesson
in the course Introduction to English Language Teaching Methodology (Bachelor program) at
the University of Languages and International Studies. An analysis of the author’s experience
as a teacher educator when conducting these lessons follows. Here an informed evaluation of
what has advantaged and disadvantaged the integration of multimodal pedagogies is offered.
Implications for multimodal practices to be incorporated effectively in language teacher
education in Vietnam are also discussed. |
