The significance of academic writing in foreign language teaching continues to grow as educational systems globally prioritize communicative competence and critical thinking. Academic writing, as a sophisticated skill set, is pivotal in enabling students to participate fully in intellectual communities and to meet the requirements of educational institutions and professional environments. Its development necessitates not only mastery of grammatical forms and vocabulary but also a deep understanding of structure, discourse conventions, argumentation, and critical analysis. With the continuous expansion of digital technologies, multimodal input, which integrates multiple forms of textual, visual, and auditory content, offers new avenues for supporting the acquisition of academic writing skills in foreign language contexts. The integration of multimodal resources and instructional practices holds the potential to transform traditional language teaching, fostering more dynamic and effective development of academic writing competence.
