摘要：AbstractWith dramatic changes taking place in higher education these days, the calls for teaching and learning that cross subject boundaries have been making themselves heard in recent higher education literature in many national and global contexts. It is widely acknowledged that learning that crosses subject boundaries is an important and growing consideration and it is no surprise that university administrators are looking to increase quality investments in this resurgence of interest. This paper showcases a vignette of a MA (Linguistics and English Language Studies) course that attempts to develop interdisciplinary teaching in a language and literature course. It reports on types of learning and assessment activities that students experienced in enhancing their knowledge-making process. By integrating multimodal teaching and learning and incorporating critical theories in the disciplines of language and literature in the course design, the development of interdisciplinary content was made possible. Students reported having positive learning experiences and enjoyed being active and engaged in the critical discourses during class.
