Abstract:

This book argues for the value of digital literacy in the multilingual writing
classroom. Against the background of huge changes in literacy practices
prompted by online communication, and a growing acceptance of a broader
definition of academic literacy that encompasses multimodality, the book
examines the relationship between digital and print literacies and addresses
the design of literacy spaces for multilingual classrooms. The author
critically evaluates the latest developments in the use of technology in
multilingual writing spaces, and focuses on the role of teachers in their
design; it also addresses areas that are not often discussed in relation to
multilingual students, from blogging to publishing and intellectual property.
The book will help teachers meet the challenges created by rapidly shifting
technology, as well as making an innovative contribution to research on
multilingual writing classrooms.
