“ The real magic in a quality learning experience comes not from boxes, wires and expensive digital equipment. The real magic comes from teachers who have high expectations, create relevant and challenging learning experiences, supported and scaffold pupils to success, and provide quality feedback for their pupils.” Trevor Bond

Today's definition of literacy is more than reading and writing. In order to be functionally literate in our media-saturated world, children and young people – in fact, all of us – have to be able to read the messages that daily inform us, entertain us and sell to us. As the Internet becomes a fact of life, the critical thinking skills that help young people navigate through traditional media are even more important.
Media Awareness Network, (2006, June 21)

To be literate is to have the ability to read, understand, analyse , explain, critically evaluate, create and appreciate the ways in which these texts make meaning.
Consumers : Analyse and interpret meaning
Producers : Convey meaning by being creative with literacy and design

consumption of it

ICT’s are crucial in developing multi-literacy.
They can help:
Learners experiment with different ways of making meaning – via multi-media tools
Build learners' sense of themselves as active knowledge-builders, having a unique niche, role, point of difference…
Provide tools and resources needed for research
To develop the kinds of relationships/connections/collaborations needed to generate new knowledge
