Education
Generative AI Technologies, Multiliteracies, and Language Education is a
comprehensive edited volume that examines the integration of Generative AI
(GenAI) technologies within the framework of multiliteracies pedagogies to
enhance language teaching and learning.
This collection of chapters offers an in-depth understanding of how GenAI
can transform language education through theoretical insights and empirical
research. Featuring contributions from leading scholars in the field, this in-
novative volume provides both foundational concepts and innovative practices
alongside evidence-based methodologies and practical strategies for educators,
enhancing both teaching effectiveness and student engagement in multilitera-
cies environments. The book investigates the role that GenAI grounded in
multiliteracies can play in language education, providing readers with compre-
hensive theoretical and pedagogical bases for the use of GenAI technologies
in language teaching and learning, empirical evidence from research work, and
solid guidelines and recommendations for practice and implementation in the
language classroom.
Generative AI Technologies, Multiliteracies, and Language Education will
be of interest to those involved in teaching, researching, or developing cur-
riculum that integrates technology and multiliteracies with language learning.
