Reihe: Multiliteracies and Second Language Education

Multiliteracies, Multimodality, and Learning by Design in Second Language Learning and Teacher Education offers valuable insights and practical strategies for addressing the language and literacy needs of students in diverse, multilingual classrooms.

This edited volume delves into the dynamic interplay between multimodality, multiliteracies, and Learning by Design (LbyD), providing evidence-based research and actionable guidance for their effective implementation in second language learning and teacher education. Examining the advantages of incorporating multimodality and multiliteracies in second language teacher training, this book emphasizes the use of multimodal texts to create engaging and meaningful lessons for L2 learners. By empowering students as active co-constructors of knowledge, this book equips educators with the necessary tools to foster a vibrant and inclusive learning environment.

Designed specifically for pre-service and practicing teachers, this book serves as an indispensable resource for integrating the pedagogy of multiliteracies into both coursework and classroom practices.
