The integration of literacy instruction with multimodal strategies is essential in today's rapidly changing educational landscape, as they can effectively address the diverse learning styles of students. This study aimed to investigate the use of multimodal approaches in literacy teaching, focusing on both receptive and productive language activities. This qualitative study involved students from both public and private Vocational High Schools in Central Java, Indonesia. The findings reveal that the literacy instruction frequently incorporated a range of multimodal strategies, utilizing text, audio, visuals, kinaesthetic activities, and combined multimodal. The integration of these strategies enhances students' understanding of abstract and complex concepts, fosters deeper analysis, and improves long-term retention through real-world applications. Furthermore, these approaches equip students to navigate a fast-paced professional environment. By employing diverse multimodal strategies, teachers can better meet individual learning needs, thereby increasing student engagement and comprehension. © ICRES 2025.All rights reserved.
