Abstract | It’s not unusual for a multiliteracies approach to literacy teaching to be equated with the literacies associated with computers and other information communication technologies. Although literacy educators need to take account of these emerging technoliteracies, a multiliteracies approach should encompass much more than that. What can sometimes be forgotten are the diverse social, cultural and literate practices of homes and communities – the literacy backgrounds that seem to often play a determining role in whether children are successful or not in school settings. |
