Reading Images for Knowledge Building: Analyzing Infographics in School Science: A Book Review
Аннотация
The book “Reading Images for Knowledge Building: Analysing Infographics in School Science” by J. R. Martin and Len Unsworth, published by Routledge in 2024, explores new perspectives on visual grammar derived from Systemic Functional Linguistics and their application in the multimodal discourse of school science. It examines key components of infographics, specifically image mass (technicality, iconization, aggregation) and image presence (explicitness, affiliation, congruence). The book enriches our theoretical understanding of visual grammar and provides strategies for the effective use of infographics in classrooms.
