Multiliteracies and Second Language Education – serie

Learning by Design and Second Language Teaching establishes theoretical, research, and practice connections between the multiliteracies framework Learning by Design and L2 teaching and learning. A comprehensive introductory chapter presents the theoretical tenets of the approach and is followed by four chapters devoted to the establishment of connections between the framework and L2 instruction, information on evidence-based pedagogical practices and suggestions for their implementation, and task examples that can be adapted for use in a variety of educational contexts. Each chapter links theory and research to practical steps instructors can take to select authentic materials and create tasks in each of the framework’s knowledge processes with the objective of developing L2 students’ performance in the interpersonal (speaking), interpretive (reading and listening), and presentational (writing) modes of communication. A selection of guidance charts, figures, templates, and extra digital resources are included within the text to support learning and teaching.The book will be of interest to graduate students and in-service and future L2 teachers in all levels of instruction.Chapter 1, Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com.

Multiliteracies in International Educational Contexts: Towards Education Justice examines how multiliteracies and Learning by Design have been taken up across international second-language instructional contexts, with a focus on inclusive practices and social justice. This edited collection brings together a team of international contributors to offer a global perspective on the application of multiliteracies in L2 education. Through the analysis of classroom-based qualitative and quantitative data on different aspects of the multiliteracies pedagogy, the book shows how the multiliteracies pedagogy can facilitate more inclusive practices while providing suggestions for pedagogical interventions and future research. This book will be a key resource for language educators, researchers, and practitioners interested in the multiliteracies pedagogy, as well as those interested in critical and social justice approaches to language teaching.

Multimodal Literacy in English as an Additional Language in Higher Education addresses three key aspects of multimodal literacy in higher education: identifying what is understood by multimodal literacy, its teachability in the EAL context, and how to integrate multimodal competence into professional development programmes.This edited collection provides a diverse and international perspective on multimodal literacy development in both students and teachers in higher education settings. The volume is organised into three parts: the first examines the concept of multimodal literacy at university level from different perspectives; the second focuses on students, with examples of how multimodal literacy pedagogies in EAL courses can be meaningfully applied; and the third explores the design and implementation of EAL teachers’ professional development programmes which promote and enhance multimodal literacy. Multimodal Literacy in English as an Additional Language in Higher Education paves the way for the integration of multimodal literacy theories and practices in the different EAL curricula.This innovative volume brings together both theory and practical application and is essential reading for researchers, postgraduate students, and teachers and teacher trainers in the fields of language teaching, language learning, and education.

Social Justice through Pedagogies of Multiliteracies explores the ways in which pedagogies of multiliteracies can be used to promote and achieve situated forms of social justice, especially for minoritized L2 learners.This edited collection focuses on pedagogies of multiliteracies that seek to develop and strengthen L2 learner identity and agency within and outside formal educational contexts in bilingual, multilingual, multimodal, community, language, and teacher education. The volume contextualizes agency and identity around questions, ideologies, and issues related to language, gender, sex, sexuality, body, race, and ethnicity. Contributions illustrate the design and implementation of pedagogies of multiliteracies through a diverse range of modalities and settings: linguistic landscapes, graphic novels, picturebooks, photovoice, text, and imagery through instructor- and student-developed materials. The volume acknowledges, enacts, and builds upon the responsibility of L2 educators to develop pedagogies of multiliteracies that reflect the life experiences, identities, and needs of minoritized L2 individuals in the curriculum in order to realize the social justice aim of L2 education.Social Justice through Pedagogies of Multiliteracies will be of interest to L2 researchers, teachers, and teacher educators.

Literature, Multiliteracies, and Digital Texts in the Second Language Classroom provides a comprehensive analysis of how digital transformation is reshaping literature education in the second language classroom.Moving beyond print-based traditions, the book redefines what a literary text is and reconceptualizes reading and interpretation through the lens of multimodality, multilingualism, and digitality. By integrating multiliteracies pedagogy with contemporary technological and cultural shifts, researchers and educators are equipped to rethink their teaching for increasingly complex and hybrid communicative landscapes. Literature, Multiliteracies, and Digital Texts in the Second Language Classroom develops the “Triad Model of Literature Education” which conceptualizes multimodality, digitality, and multilingualism as interconnected dimensions of contemporary literary learning. The nuanced conceptual approach is complemented by practical considerations and pedagogical approaches that guide readers as they engage with the diversity of texts and literature in the digital age. The book demonstrates how literary learning now involves engaging with images, sounds, interfaces, and multiple languages across media environments and it also addresses the implications of emerging forms such as interactive narratives, AI-generated texts, and immersive experiences in AR and VR for second language education.This book offers valuable insight to researchers, scholars, and teachers in the field of second language education as well as anyone interested in the intersection of technology and language learning.
