MCE: Can the following communication be considered multi-modal?

Consider the following activity: students are asked to produce a podcast on a hurricane for their journalism class, including a written script and the final audio podcast.

OPTIONS

• Yes, because the podcast can be published on a blog, social media or student website
• No, because the story is the same whether written out (in the script) or spoken (in the podcast), multiple media are not used to enhance the content of the communication
• Yes, because each student is creating a written script and recording as an audio podcast
• No, because they are not required to publish the podcast online
• Yes, because each student is working on his/her own script and podcast

Answer:

No, because the story is the same whether written out (in the script) or spoken (in the podcast), multiple media are not used to enhance the content of the communication
