MULTIMODALITY HORIZONS

  TITULO EXPLÍQUEMELO CANTADITO Problem As pre-serving teachers and contemporary subjects of this globalized and digital era, we know that multimedia content, as music, is extremely important for young people, to the point of even affecting their identity construction. For this reason, it is necessary for them to be in constant interaction with these multimedia content.

Therefore, to make the most of this modality, ...

For example, automation has simplified industrial processes, and DVDs and streaming platforms have simplified the act of watching any movie in seconds, without having to go to a cinema. It has also revolutionized the way we communicate, allowing instant connection through platforms such as social media and messaging tools. However, this advancement has also contributed to the establishment of a Bauman's "liquid society," where everything is accelerated and we want it immediately, fostering consumerist and nonconformist attitudes. In the workplace, technology has opened up the possibility of many tasks being performed by machines, putting at risk the replacement of human workers in pursuit of...
