Abstract

This research dealt with multimodality in the “Think Globally Act Locally” English
textbook. The objectives of this study were: (1) to identify the components of
multimodality that are applied in the textbook entitled "Think Globally Act Locally"
(2) to describe how the components of multimodality create meaning. This study used
descriptive qualitative design. The data in this study are in the form of verbal mode
(caption text and instruction text) and image and visual mode (the illustration and the
arrangement). The data were collected by analyzing the textbook directly and written
down in a notebook. The findings of this study revealed that: (1) there were three
components of multimodality in the textbook, namely verbal, image, and visual
mode. (2) Each component that appears has a different type but has its own role in
creating the same meaning. These components appear simultaneously so that they are
in sync with each other. This study found that 76% of the verbal mode is a statement
and 24% of the verbal mode is a command. Thus, Statement is the dominant Speech
Function. This study also found that the dominant representation is narrative
representation with human participants. The dominant interactions in this study are
offer in gaze, close shot in size of frame, frontal angle in horizontal angle, and high
level in vertical angle. And the dominant compositions in this study are top, center,
bottom, and right in information value, placement, color, and sharpness in salience,
and framed in framing. Therefore, the components of multimodality worked
simultaneously in creating meaning. The components used are related to each other so
that the meaning created can be understood easily.
