This synthesis examines recent science education research on multilingual students' experiences with language-rich science practices. Adopting a translanguaging lens, we explore how researchers' language conceptualizations impact the science practices they study and the ways multilingual students are positioned. This analysis helps us understand…

The article discusses the concept of translanguaging, which refers to the use of multiple languages and language features to maximize communication. While research on translanguaging primarily focuses on K-12 learners and higher education contexts, limited research exists on adult language and literacy education. The article emphasizes the…

This literature review synthesizes scholarship on standard language ideologies in college writing programs and the theories and pedagogies being proposed to disrupt such ideologies. Findings include a tension between belief and action, or that professors' awareness of language diversity does not translate into changes in pedagogy. This is due to…

Recently, there has been a surge of literature on the implementation of translanguaging pedagogy and practices in science education settings. By activating and validating learners' full communicative repertoire, translanguaging holds promise to build an inclusive science learning community where multilingual learners' ways of knowing are not only…

This study aims to provide a bibliometric analysis of the status of multilingualism in EMI research, research topics on multilingualism in EMI and future research directions. Based on a sample of 175 articles from Web of Science (WoS), the results show that (1) multilingualism in EMI research has been gradually growing since 2000 and it comes to a…

Research on translanguaging in science and engineering education has grown rapidly. Studies carried out across diverse contexts converge in their commitment to fostering equity in science and engineering learning for linguistically marginalized learners. However, the rapid growth of this research area has exposed different approaches to…

Translingual pedagogies have been proposed and implemented to respond to the increasing linguistic and cultural diversity in today's classrooms. However, the findings of translingual pedagogies on English as an additional language (EAL) writing vary from facilitating to undermining teaching and learning. To understand the empirical landscape of…

The aim of this research is to interpret and discuss the findings of qualitative research that has put forward the teachers' opinions, code switching and using L1 (First language) through a systematic research method in education called "meta-synthesis." As a result of this meta-synthesis research (N = 18), the teachers stated that they…

This review article reflects on the notion of pedagogy in English language teaching and teacher education. To advance in the state of the art at stake, forty-four articles were profiled out of eighty-eight to trace how pedagogy has been built as a universal that carries onto-epistemological consequences. The analysis here concentrated on the…

In recent decades, a growing body of scholarship has recognised the inappropriateness of conceptualising and representing communicative practices in terms of essentialized codes where different named language-varieties and modalities mutually exclude one another. At the same time, making visible complex practices has resulted in methodologies and…

Despite accumulated evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of flipped language classrooms in higher education, there is no quantitative examination of the extant empirical studies to draw a general conclusion. Based on Bayesian methodologies and 26 effect sizes, this study quantitatively examines empirical studies that investigated flipped…

With increasing interest in a translingual approach to writing studies, a considerable amount of empirical research has been conducted to investigate how this approach can affect writing practice and pedagogy. This article reports on 42 empirical studies on a translingual approach to writing and discusses the approach's implications for teaching…

This article outlines a literature review of the current anglophone academic literature pertaining to plurilingualism. We summarize 24 of the most pertinent articles in terms of resistance to the adoption of plurilingual pedagogy; key factors in changing attitudes toward the approach; identified classroom options; and implications for teacher…

This study reports how authors use Spanish in award-winning Latinx children's picturebooks in the USA. Teachers, families, and librarians use these books to support heritage language and culture or to broaden children's understanding of cultures other than their own. Thus, how these books use Spanish matters because of the potential of these books…

Clinical Question: Would the performance on a narrative task (O) differ for a bilingual child with a potential language disability (P) when using a translanguaging approach to narrative language sample analysis (I) compared to restricting narratives to one language per task (C)? Method: Systematic Review. Study Sources: Google Scholar. Search…
