With the nature of literacy changing, schools should also change how they approach literacy. Through clarification of the definition of literacy and equity, a pedagogy of multiliteracies is suggested to be used to teach this new definition of literacy equitably. By reviewing roughly the past 20 years of elementary setting multiliteracies research, the author shares what a multiliteracies pedagogy has the potential to do to support equity in both theory and reality. Issues regarding implementation are also reviewed to discuss potential obstacles in effective use of what could be considered an equitable pedagogy. 2019 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1574178954245032 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1574178954245032 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
