Contribute to the Meaning of a Text
Reading is more fun when there are colors, graphics, and designs. It contributes to the reader’s understanding by widening their imagination as they read. These are visual and multimedia elements.
Visual elements help convert a simple reading text to an adventurous tale where readers can “see” or visualize the story. Pictures, drawings, comics and cartoons, and diagrams are examples of visual elements.
Aside from visual elements, we also have multimedia elements. Multimedia elements help the reader understand the text in a whole new level since it uses sight, sound, and other senses to experience what they’re reading first hand. It also uses a variety of combination with its medium. It can be used in a digital form through computers, audio layers, tablets, smartphones, and other technology.
Multimedia elements include video, audio recordings and sound effects, interactive images where readers may click the images or words to learn more information about them, including how the word sounds, its definition, and important facts.
