The purpose of this study was to explore translanguaging space as a transformative third space, where alternative and competing discourses are celebrated and where science learning and the development of science's discourse and epistemic practices expand across overlapping boundaries (e.g., home, school, and community).

In English-medium instruction (EMI), English-as-a-second-language students will learn all/some subjects through English. Although there are a considerable number of studies which explore classroom interaction in Hong Kong (HK) secondary EMI schools, few studies have investigated EMI lessons which involve South Asian ethnic minorised students.…

Sameen, Shafaq; Farid, Aisha; Hussain, Muhammad Sabboor – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2021
This research yields a review on demotivation among students due to poor language skills resulting in less participation in classrooms. It provides code-switching, the alternating use of languages in the discourse, as a solution to this problem. It is mixed-method research in which the data was collected from university teachers and students on a…

Bonacina-Pugh, Florence – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2020
This paper revisits the notion of 'legitimate language' [e.g. Bourdieu 1977. "The Economics of Linguistic Exchange." "Social Science Information" 16 (6): 645-668] as it relates to multilingualism in educational contexts. Since Heller [1996. "Legitimate Language in a Multilingual School." "Linguistics and…

Rajendram, Shakina – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2023
Translanguaging offers a new perspective on language learning by affirming and leveraging the diverse language practices that make up learners' unitary language repertoire as resources for their learning. Despite the potential pedagogical benefits of translanguaging, English-only policies are still prevalent in many language classrooms. Even when…

Ou, Wanyu Amy; Gu, Michelle Mingyue – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022
Previous research on classroom interaction in international university contexts tended to focus on individual speakers' language (in)competence. This paper adopts a translanguaging and spatial orientation to intercultural classroom interaction and highlights the role of situated assemblages of linguistic, semiotic and multimodal resources embedded…

Kulavuz-Onal, Derya; Vásquez, Camilla – Language Learning & Technology, 2018
The affordances associated with networked multilingualism (Androutsopoulos, 2015) have led social media scholars to replace traditional notions of code-switching with broader concepts such as translingual practices. In an attempt to further our understanding of online multilingual linguistic practices in the context of educational…

Tai, Kevin W. H.; Wei, Li – Language and Education, 2021
Recent studies on classroom discourse have challenged the traditional classroom role set and emphasised equal contributions from the participants and the emergence of knowledge through active participation. Co-learning emphasises the process in which teachers and students attempt to adapt to one another's behaviour and learn from each other in…

Arias de Sanchez, Gabriela; Gabriel, Martha A.; Anderson, Ann; Turnbull, Miles – Education Sciences, 2018

However, little is known about how educators of young children understand and use the language of mathematics. This study addresses this void.…
