Critically evaluated the way in which your understanding of multiliteracies

Multiliteracy is modern communication methods with considerations to technology, social and cultural issues, current trends and all diversity (Cazden et al, 1996). Multiliteracy recognises audio, video, linguistic, gestural and spatial as modes in which information can be passed from one person to another. The advantage of using ITCs is that audio, video and linguistic can all be used together to create a lesson that is topical and relevant. The TPCK model shows that a balance between pedagogical, content and technological knowledge is required to build a relevant and modern lesson (Koehler & Mishra, 2008). The TPCK model and multiliteracies both demonstrate the need for the use of technology in the class room, as well as an understanding of the students to make the technologies relevant and not just for technologies sake.
