Literacy is vital; In order to live productive lives in 2013, humans must communicate in multiple ways, using a wide range of skills to make sense of and understand information. Literacy is not a static concept; the notion of what it means to be literate is changing rapidly as technologies develop and evolve and as our society evolves (Wishart, 2009). He also understood that some literacies hold more power than others; Standard Australian English (SAE) is considered the "common" and dominant language of Australia. However, in this diverse and multicultural country, many languages ​​and dialects are spoken, especially in less formal contexts, and these must be valued if we are to truly engage all students (ACARA, 2013). The need for the teacher to accomplish three tasks in literacy. They must expose students to all different texts, traditional, modern and multi-platform; they must explicitly teach SAE; and they must embrace and promote diverse literacies. Literacy is the ability to communicate and make meaning using a variety of different texts, in order to functionally participate in modern society. 100 years ago, in the industrial age, basic reading and writing skills may have been required by only a few. Today, in 2013, due to massive technological advancements and the diverse nature of society, the type of text and quantity produced has changed dramatically (Anstey & Bull, 2013). Students leaving school today need to know how to use email, texting, social media and software in their work and social lives. Students must learn SAE in order to participate fully in the formal aspects of Australian life. However, they must maintain knowledge of their specific dialects, native languages, and cultural practices in order to attend their church and have lunch with their extended family..
