I think it is important to have a multimodal component in writing classes because there are different types of way that one has to write. It can be to persuade someone is giving pros and cons about a product. so in that case the multimodal component has to be change to the appropriate type of writing you are doing. I kind of find the new assignment annoying. seeing how we have to make a video or something talking about thing isn’t something that I do. My audience would be the Cuny students who may not have a career set to follow.  I think I will be writing in a informative way seeing how it need to be understood by the other students what exactly is what I may be talking about.
