Introduction

Multi-literacy represents an inclusive approach to literacy. The traditional definition of literacy has widened to include comprehension of all types of visual and printed texts, audio, spatial and gestural information, and the ability to make textual connections. Text is often non-linear and integrated with images, audio and video. Today's learners require a broader range of skills to encompass ever-changing technologies.
