Abstract
This cross-national, online biliteracy project connected 13 Canadian and Chinese bi/multilingual learners aged 11–15 years. The research was informed by posthuman conceptualizations of literacy, biliteracy, modes, and media, and disrupted binary thinking about mind/body, first language (L1) / second language (L2), and language/materiality in literacy education. A diffractive methodology facilitated exploration of how the dynamic relationship-building between humans and nonhuman entities shaped the bi/multilingual learners’ digital storytelling. The project intended to enable a generative assemblage that positioned languages, media, and places as interconnected, agentive repertoires. It supported bi/multilingual learners’ connection-making with various semiotic resources and their situated lifeworlds and opened opportunities for them to create new forms of meaning. Findings also show that the generative assemblage was affectively rewarding and enabled bi/multilingual learners to be fully engaged in their digital story creation and eager to try more. The article proposes a biliteracy orientation that nurtures ethical meaning-making across languages, modes, and media.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
