Description: "This collection brings together contemporary research and practice on how literacies are theorized, challenged, embedded and enacted in ELT practice in the Global South, and how these fuse with social, cultural, historical and political realities and localities of contexts where English is either a foreign, second or additional language. With a particular focus on diverse contexts of South America and Africa, it showcases research that focuses on the intersection of multiple literacies and English language pedagogy and provides insightful examples of pedagogical research and practice that reinvigorate a wide range of literacies often invisible in both the 'North' and 'South'"-- Provided by publisher.
