description | This paper illustrates how participating elementary teachers plan their literacy-based curriculum and create learning opportunities for writing through multimodal resources and digital technology tools in their classrooms. A theoretical lens of New Literacies (Coiro et al., 2008; Leu et al., 2013) guides this qualitative study. Through comprehensive interviews and an analysis of activity resources and digital tools, how teachers plan and design writing curriculum with a multimodal focus and create opportunities for collaboration and enhancing authorship are discussed. |
