- Abstract
This forward-looking research on digital multimodal composing (DMC) aims to explore emerging trends in student-authored digital multimodal compositions in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) courses. This study involved an open-ended questionnaire answered by 263 tourism students assigned to create a tourism-promotional video. This study, employing thematic analysis, highlights the importance of digital media such as videos in preparing students for their future careers. It also underscores how videos can reach and influence global audiences, thereby making English a significant international language. This study elaborates on digital skills because DMC requires robust digital skills. The study testified to the power of DMC in scaffolding students’ 21st-century skills. This suggests that creating videos is vital in today’s digital culture and essential for tourism promotion and students’ future careers.
