Abstract | Students from disadvantaged backgrounds need to develop the multimodal language resources to express emotion for social and economic success, and research shows that teachers want to be equipped to teach these requirements of the Australian Curriculum. This project aimed to develop innovative education programs to broaden the range of meaningmaking resources for students to communicate attitudinal meanings—emotion, judgement, and appreciation—across modes (e.g., speech, writing, image) and media. In so doing it strengthened students’ language skills for attitudinal expressions and wellbeing leading to recommendations applicable to teachers and students statewide. Such innovation was facilitated through multiinstitutional collaboration with three schools in South-East Queensland over four years. This collaboration united a consortium of schools with visual media experts and policy makers to test new pedagogical approaches. The findings have implications to inform curriculum policies to strengthen students’ attitudinal expressions through multimodality, and for guiding research innovation through collaborative partnerships. |
