Abstract

Due to the increasing diversity of cultures and languages in today’s classrooms, more and more studies continue to explore various methods, media, and modalities for the sake of harnessing the academic and linguistic strengths of students. In an attempt to apprehend the empirical landscape of the evolving studies, the authors systematically reviewed the literature on multimodal composition occurring in the classroom across various conditions and situations. Through an inductive study, the authors analyzed 37 articles published in international journals indexed by Scopus Q1 and Q2 in the last five years (2017-2021) to comprehend the findings of keywords and characteristics of the existing studies. This study revealed that most studies supported students in terms of learning success, but did not examine the expression, the emergence of ideas, and the communication taking place. Second, many studies demonstrated how the language emerged and developed through the unique semiotic resources of several modes as they occurred in the classroom. Third, this literature study discovered how multimodal composition offered the opportunity to expand the linguistic state in the classroom. Finally, this literature study illustrated the potential of multiple modes to mediate the learning during the learning process in the classroom. The authors provided the implications of the themes acquired and critical new directions for future multimodal research in the classroom.
