This qualitative case study challenges monoglossic teaching practices in mainstream classrooms with emergent bilingual learners. I examine how pre-service teachers in a California teacher education course took up a culturally and linguistically sustaining pedagogy (CLSP) that centers students' identities, cultures, and language practices, as well…

While translanguaging has gained increasing recognition as a multiliteracy pedagogy in English-medium instruction (EMI) education, research exploring its implementation in STEM classroom contexts remains limited. Furthermore, the interplay of EMI teachers' professional identities and their instructional strategies has received little attention.…

This study examines teaching about grammar and language use in secondary schools through a narrative lens. The author analyses narrative episodes in interviews with three secondary English language arts teachers in the USA to identify patterns in stories of teaching about language use. Findings show teachers with vastly different life experiences…

It has been widely recognised that plurilingual pedagogy offers many benefits both for language learning and learning in general. However, in contexts where the linguistic profile of students is diverse, it can still be challenging for teachers to view working with the language resources of their students as feasible. In this article, we discuss…

Drawing from Darvin and Norton's (2015) investment model, this study investigates ethnic Tibetan students' multilingual practice and its influence on these students' ethnic identity construction at an interior university in People's Republic of China (PRC). Based on multiple data sources, findings from this study indicate that Tibetan students…

This paper draws on an intervention study focussing on translanguaging pedagogies. The study was carried out in 2020-2022 in collaboration with principals and teachers at one school located in a socioeconomic disadvantaged area in Sweden. Drawing on teachers' logbooks, the aim was to investigate in what ways the theoretical concept of…

This study enlists a transformative approach to mixed methods research in order to problematize what different methods can offer for expanding understandings of educator language attitudes and ideologies. Analyses consider Likert-scale survey responses and linguistic autobiography data from a sociolinguistics course in an online Educating…

In 2009, the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany enacted a law that prescribed a binding module on dealing with linguistic diversity for all future teachers in every university offering teacher training in the state. In this paper, we present an interview study with teacher educators in this so-called DaZ module and their views on…

Although digital advances have enabled hundreds of universities to offer massive open online courses (MOOCs) to millions of students worldwide, the high dropout rate on these MOOCs indicates a disjunct between the potential of the offer and the success of its uptake. Many studies point to issues relating to interpersonal connection as a major…

The increasing impact of internationalisation in higher education worldwide has led to the growing use of English as a medium of instruction (EMI). Much research on this phenomenon has focused on stakeholders' viewpoints, but there is increasing interest in investigating interaction in EMI classrooms. One interactional practice which is relatively…

In response to the increasing linguistic diversity in educational settings resulting from migration waves into the Global North, this study delves into the beliefs of secondary teachers regarding multilingualism within predominantly monolingual policy schools in Flanders, Belgium. Despite the recognized benefits of multilingual pedagogies,…

Research suggests that in linguistically and socially diverse classrooms, teachers should draw on their students' multilingual repertoires. Although several approaches to use students' home languages exist, the accessibility of this knowledge among teachers is still limited. Recently, a holistic approach has been put forward to address the needs…

Although the development of intercultural citizenship among university students has now been included as a key policy in international universities, pedagogical practices for promoting the awareness, understanding, and development of intercultural citizenship while studying abroad have reportedly been inadequate. To address this gap, this…

The use of machine translation is increasingly prevalent in language education and social communication. This study explored how multilingual pupils who are learning English as an additional language (EAL) use machine translation within their formal education and everyday lives. A translanguaging framework was employed to understand the ways in…

This paper investigates a monolingual approach to the teaching of linguistic minority pupils in an English primary school at Key Stage Two (7-11 years old). The work is based on a longitudinal case study of one Russian-speaking migrant pupil and her schooled experience. The analysis and discussion explicate the prohibition of the first or home…
