Multiliteracies and Global Citizenship in Language Education: The Interplay of Young Adult Literature, Digital Social Reading, and Digital Storytelling
Abstract
In today’s rapidly changing world, foreign language (FL) education faces significant global challenges that require innovative approaches to teaching and learning. As educators seek to prepare students for an interconnected future, the integration of multiliteracies and multimodal practices have become essential. These frameworks enable learners to navigate diverse forms of communication and expression, which are crucial in our increasingly digital landscape. In fact, while digitalisation in education is not a new phenomenon, the recent COVID‑19 pandemic has heightened the urgency of exploring how to effectively and meaningfully incorporate digital tools in the language classroom.
