Before I studied ETL 402 module 5, Multi-literacies, I didn’t know about the difference between literary learning and literacy learning because they looked similar to me. Literary learning is students learning through literature and literacy learning is students learning to be literate through learning “how to read literature” and “how to deconstruct it”. (Derout, 2020, ETL 402 module 5) I also realised that it is very useful for teachers and teacher librarians to use literature in teaching curriculum subjects or cross curriculum priority areas.
