What is Designing Learning with Embodied Teaching; Perspectives from Multimodality about?

Teaching and learning involve more than just language. The teachersâ use of gestures, the classroom spaces they occupy, and the movements they make, as well as the tools they use, work together with language as a multimodal ensemble of meanings. Embodied teaching is about applying the understandings of multimodal communication to the classroom. It is about helping teachers recognise that the moves that they make and the tools they use in the classroom are part of their pedagogy and contribute to the design of the studentsâ learning experience.In response to the changing profile and needs of learners in this digital age, pedagogic shifts are required. A shift is the evolving role of teachers from authority of knowledge to designers of learning. This book discusses how, using examples drawn from case studies, teachers can use corporeal resources and (digital) tools to design learning experiences for their students.
