Writing can be composed and produced through different modes and technology. As a future teacher, it is important for me to use different modes to teach my students. Writing should also be taught in a traditional way of essays. Students need to be fluid in different writing modes. “Effective writing is a vital component of students’ literacy achievement, and writing is a critical communication tool for students to convey thoughts and opinions, describe ideas and events, and analyze information” (Dept of Education). Teaching students to writing in different modes help them improve their writing, be able to convey thoughts in opinions through different modes and creates life-long skills that they need for the future. The nature of writing is always changing, so should our teaching instructions. Different modes of writing include: short stories, videos, newsletters, brochures, websites, blogs, etc. According to the National Councils of Teachers of English “increased access to various modalities and technologies has created opportunities for students with a wide range of abilities, backgrounds, and languages to compose with more independence and agency”. Lesson plans of how teachers can use different modes to teach are down below.
