The research method used in this study is a literature review of books and research journals that examine the concept of applying multi-literacies in the context of learning and teaching. Teaching with a multi-literacy approach is not just about instilling skills and competencies regarding technology, but furthermore creating someone who actively seeks meaning, is sensitive to differences and changes, and is innovative. The multi-literacy approach is proven to provide benefits in learning, such as improving reading skills and teaching students a second language.
