10.  ”Students need to be able to think creatively, critically, and collaboratively; to master the "basics" and excel in reading, math, science, and information literacy, and respond to opportunities and challenges with speed, agility, and innovation. Students need to expand their knowledge beyond the doors of their local community to become responsible and contributing global citizens in the increasingly complex world economy.” (Tapscott, 2013)

11. Ideals of multiliteracy  Self expression: cultural ideal  Participation: democratic ideal  Competitiveness: ideal of the knowledge- and information society

12.  CONTEXT  The variability of meaning making in different cultural, social or domain-specific contexts.  ”This means that it is no longer enough for literacy teaching to focus solely on the rules of standard forms of the national language. Rather, the business of communication and representation of meaning today increasingly requires that learners are able figure out differences in patterns of meaning from one context to another. These differences are the consequence of any number of factors, including culture, gender, life experience, subject matter, social or subject domain and the like. Every meaning exchange is cross-cultural to a certain degree.” (Kalantzis-Cope) www.uni-corvinus.hu/tkar12

13.  TECHNOLOGY  Task of literacy education is ”to extend the range of literacy pedagogy so that it does not unduly privilege alphabetical representations, but brings into the classroom multimodal representations, and particularly those typical of the new, digital media.  This makes literacy pedagogy all the more engaging for its manifest connections with today’s communications milieu.” (Kalantzis- Cope) www.uni-corvinus.hu/tkar13

16.  1. New information behaviours both base and affect the levels of literacy.  2. Literacy skills support digital skills.  3. Texts tend to be multimedial/interactive (or have the capacity to become multimedial).  4. Multiliteracies entail the local-global, the individual- cultural and the human-technological.  5. Formal (literacy) education should ’reconsider’ its own traditions and aims in terms of new media/multiliteracy challenges and research findings.
