Featuring contributions from leading scholars in the field, this innovative 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 multiliteracies environments. The book investigates the role that GenAI grounded in multiliteracies can play in language education, providing readers with comprehensive 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 curriculum that integrates technology and multiliteracies with language learning.
