The Semiotics in Education: Signs, Meanings, and Multimodality SIG is undergoing a membership drive to increase the number of scholars, researchers, practitioners, and students who desire to learn and share their work with others in the field of semiotics.
In recent decades, work in multimodality and social semiotics has been grown across all disciplines. The SIG should reflect and represent this diversity in disciplinary perspectives, approaches, and cutting edge research using social semiotics. New membership is urgently needed to reflect the diversity in all fields of educational research and all levels of educational development. Please reach out to colleagues and students who may be interested in joining the Semiotics in Education SIG.
Membership is $7.00 (1 yr); students $5.00 (1 yr). Directions for joining the SIG are located at the Membership link on the sidebar.
If we do not act quickly, the Semiotics in Education SIG may be subject to deactivation. Clearly, given the burgeoning research in the area of social semiotics and multimodality, there is a great deal of interest and enthusiasm for work in this area. Help us channel this interest and enthusiasm into the SIG. All ideas are welcome.
Thank you for your support.
Best wishes,
Mary McVee, Chair
