Why is it important?

The process constructed liminal, hybrid positions, and broadened understandings within/for/by pre-service teachers about what counts as literacy and holds social value through the construction of their own multilingual, multimodal, multicultural books.

Perspectives

Latinx university students must nurture, value, and engage their cultural and linguistic knowledge by identifying these as assets, which inform teaching, learning, and assessing and establish positive multilingual, multicultural learning ecologies for emergent bilinguals.
