Jim Cummins – Language, Culture and Curriculum, 2024

Carles Fuster – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024
'Translanguaging' has become the most popular term in discussions about how to use learners' languages as resources for target language teaching/learning, but it has also become ambiguous because it is being developed in proposals adopting different perspectives on multilingualism.
