This study demonstrates how short videos improve cognitive decoding in English reading, indicating pathways for enhanced cultural understanding.
In the information age, English reading teaching is confronted with three dilemmas: cognitive overload, obstacles in decoding cultural symbols, and technological alienation. Based on the theoretical framework of multiliteracies, this study takes short videos as the media tool to explore its empowering paths in English reading classes themed on ceramic culture. Short videos reduce the cognitive load of professional terms by visualizing the craft processes;It deepens cultural decoding through the analysis of multimodal symbols; and promotes the educational transformation of technical tools via critical media analysis tasks and short video creation projects. The deep integration of short videos into ceramic culture teaching can systematically cultivate students' cultural decoding ability, critical thinking ability and technical mastery, providing a transferable design paradigm for language teaching with deep cultural integration.
