What the literature says…contd.
Plan programs around student’s capabilities and individual difference to use English in innovative and creative ways (Dooley 2008)The wealth of communication channels and increasing cultural and linguistic diversity call for a much broader view of literacy than portrayed by traditional language-based approaches. Multiliteracies will enable students to access new forms of language and engage critically with new discourses (Cope & Kalantzis 2000)Teach English in the same context it is applied, explicit instruction of meaning, view English in a social/cultural context and use English in a multimodal way (Singh & Ballantyne 2012)
