RUBIO-LOPEZ, Beatriz P.. Developing EFL Students’ Multimodal Communicative Competence Through Lady Whistledown’s Society Papers: A Teaching Proposal. profile [online]. 2024, vol.26, n.1, pp.185-206.  Epub 16-Fev-2024. ISSN 1657-0790.  https://doi.org/10.15446/profile.v26n1.107896.

This paper focuses on integrating multimodal communication into the English-as-a-foreign-language classroom to enhance the development of students’ multimodal communicative competence, multiliteracies, and 21st-century skills. To do so, I compiled a corpus of authentic materials from Lady Whistledown’s Society Papers in Julia Quinn’s novel The Viscount Who Loved Me (2000), her appearances as narrator in the Netflix series Bridgerton (2022), and some tweets posted by @Bridgerton. This corpus was used to plan and design a game-based teaching proposal. Finally, the paper offers a critical analysis and suggests how this proposal can feasibly contribute to fostering students’ multimodal communicative competence.
