This book proposes a broad-based multiliteracies theory and praxis
for college writing curriculum. Khadka expands on the work of the
New London Group's theory of multiliteracies by integrating work
from related disciplinary fields such as media studies,
intercultural communication, World Englishes, writing studies, and
literacy studies to show how they might be brought together to aid
in designing curriculum for teaching multiple literacies, including
visual, digital, intercultural, and multimodal, in writing and
literacy classes. Building on insights developed from qualitative
analysis of data from the author's own course, the book examines
the ways in which diverse groups of students draw on existing
literacy practices while also learning to cultivate the multiple
literacies, including academic, rhetorical, visual, intercultural,
and multimodal, needed in mediating the communication challenges of
a globalized world. This approach allows for both an exploration of
students' negotiation of their cultural, linguistic, and modal
differences and an examination of teaching practices in these
classrooms, collectively demonstrating the challenges and
opportunities afforded by a broad-based multiliteracies theory and
praxis. This book will be of particular interest to scholars and
researchers in writing studies, rhetoric and communication studies,
multimodality, media studies, literacy studies, and language
education.
