| Abstract: | This chapter explores the implementation of technology-mediated taskbased language teaching (TMTBLT) through collaborative multimodal storytelling (CMS) in young learner English language education. It highlights a classroom-based action research project involving 4th-grade learners and teenage co-researchers in Romania, focusing on the integration of CMS tasks to foster linguistic and digital competencies. The chapter identifies key pedagogical challenges and effective strategies for supporting young learners’ cognitive, linguistic, and collaborative needs. Findings reveal that integrating CMS tasks within a TBLT framework fosters meaningful language use, digital literacy, and 21st-century skills. The chapter offers research- and practice-informed guidance on integrating CMS tasks in young learner second language education. |
