Marshall (2001) defined multimedia as computer-controlled integration of text, graphics, drawings, still and
moving images (video), animation, audio, and any other media where every type of information can be
represented, stored, transmitted and processed digitally.
Here are some of the multimedia formats that you can use to creatively interpret various genres of literary texts.
1. Blog or a “weblog” is a website containing informational articles about a person’s own opinions,
interests and experiences. These are usually changed regularly.
2. Mind mapping is a graphical technique to visualize connections of ideas and pieces of information. This
tool structures information to better analyze, comprehend, synthesize, recall and generate new ideas.
You can use Microsoft Word or online mind mapping tools in creating a mind map.
3. Mobile phone text tula is a traditional Filipino poem. A particular example of this poem is a tanaga that
consists of 4 lines with 7 syllables each with the same rhyme at the end of each line.
4. Slideshow presentation is created with the use of Microsoft PowerPoint. It contains series of pictures or
pages of information (slides) arranged in sequence and often displayed on a large screen using a video
projector.
5. Tag cloud is a visual, stylized arrangement of words or tags within a textual content such as websites,
articles, speeches and databases (Techopedia 2020).
6. Video is an electronic device used to record, copy, playback, broadcast, and display moving visual
media.
We are fond of sharing humorous experiences in life to our family members and friends. We might not be aware
that we are already sharing stories like anecdotes all day, every day.
Anecdotes tell about a variety of stories and tales, since they can be about any topic under the sun. It is a short
story about a real person or event which usually intends to make the listeners laugh or ponder over a topic. For
example, if a group of learners talk about their favorite pets, and one learner shares a story about how his dog
cuddles every time he comes home from school, then that learner has just imparted an anecdote.
Purposes of anecdotes
1. To Bring Cheer Stories pop up anywhere and these are just sometimes making people laugh to brighten
their mood. Here is an example of an anecdote meant to look back on happy memories:
• At the dinner, a Grade 11 learner shared his story on his first day at school when he got lost and
attended a wrong class.
2. To Reminisce In most anecdotes, people are talking about their experiences in the past. They try to look
back on moments in their lives and share the joy of that time with others. Here is an example of an
anecdote with a hint of reminiscence:
• A mother tells her children a story about her life in the province when she was teenager.
3. To Caution Sometimes, just giving rules for individuals is not effective. Sharing to them frightening
stories of dangers can be helpful for them to realize the possible consequences of their actions. Here is
an example of cautionary anecdote:
• Before beginning a lecture on not following traffic rules, a father tells his son an incident of collision
that caused many lives due to ignoring traffic signs.
4. To Persuade or Inspire Sometimes, people share stories on how they surpassed their struggles in life.
These, most of the time, give encouragement to others who have been in similar situations. The message
usually conveys successes in life as a fruit of hard work. Here is an example of an inspirational
anecdote:
• Before beginning a remedial class, the teacher tells the students how a boy who used to struggle in
reading managed to be a proficient reader.
