Welcome to The Multiliteracies Project (MLP) official Twitter account!
Funded by a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Insight grant, MLP shares educational resources and research on expanded forms of literacy with adolescent and adult teachers and learners.
The Multiliteracies Project social media accounts are now shut down as this SSHRC Insight research grant has come to a close. A huge thanks to you all. The site is available through Leddy Library at the University of Windsor. Domain: https://t.co/2C3YfVm4HQ.
Dr. Susan Holloway and the entire Multiliteracies Project research team would like to thank all of our research participants for welcoming us into their classrooms and learning spaces, and sharing their knowledge with us! Thanks for being here today!!
Today marked the much anticipated Multiliteracies Project colloquium. Dr. Susan Holloway, the project’s principal investigator in Windsor, Ontario, spoke about cultural and linguistic diversity, functional literacy, critical literacy, and workplace learning among other topics.

“A balanced #literacy approach draws on evidence from decades of empirical studies done in sociocultural literacy #research that recognizes #language and how we communicate is always rooted in our particular social and cultural situation.”
