Objectives
The workshop has the following objectives:
To examine in depth what new insights may be gained through a multimodal approach when analysing texts commonly seen as ''knowledge intensive'', e.g. instructional DVDs, online help, and educational websites
To exchange ideas about how to employ a multimodal concordancer for the exploration of multimodal texts mediating specialized knowledge
To develop a catalogue of ideas pointing to areas of particular interest for the future explorations of multimodal analysis
