“Bringing Multiliteracies to Language Teaching”
South Tangerang, Indonesia

RATIONALE

SEAMEO QITEP in Language (SEAQIL) has a mandate to improve the quality of teachers and education personnel in language area. SEAQIL holds various programmes in accordance with the mandate; annual symposium is one of them. Since 2010, SEAQIL has conducted a scientific forum called Annual International Symposium of Foreign Language Learning (AISOFOLL). AISOFOLL aims to provide a platform for teachers, language education practitioners and researchers to present their research results, best practices or ideas on latest trends of language education within the country, in the region or in the large scale: the world.

This year, SEAQIL takes “Bringing Multiliteracies to Language Teaching” as the theme for its 9^th AISOFOLL. Multiliteracies is the ability to identify and communicate meaning through the use of various communication media (oral, audio, visual, spatial and gestures). On the other hand, multiliteracies is an indispensable approach in the 21^st century learning.

Students are expected to master several skills required in the 21^st century, namely critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, collaboration and communication; through multiliteracies. Students will also be adaptable and more competent in solving problems utilising various communication means. In addition, multiliteracies creates meaningful learning since the activities are based on students’ lives.

Acknowledging the aforementioned advantages of multiliteracies, SEAQIL invites teachers, language education practitioners and researchers to present papers, share ideas and discuss on all matters related to multiliteracies. The following are topics for discussion.

• Methods and Strategies in the Implementation of Multiliteracies
• Multiliteracies to Foster Multilingualism
• Multiliteracies to Build Learners’ Character
• Multiliteracies to Enhance Learners’ Critical Thinking
• ICT Utilised in Developing Multiliteracies
