Peter MacIntyre's 35-years of research in SLA, psychology of language learning, and communication was systematically reviewed in six sections driven by subjective guidelines developed for the purposes of the present survey. To operationalize the objectives of the sections, an impressionistic methodology was created for analysis, according to which…

This systematic literature review examined 61 empirical studies published from 2010 to 2022 on translanguaging. The review explored the trends and scientific strengths of the studies, the reported pedagogical components, and the affordances and challenges of translanguaging. 70.49% of the studies took place in elementary schools and in 65.57% in…

The core objective of this article is to evaluate the progress made in linguistic development over the past three decades, with a specific focus on the role of language and its philosophical underpinnings in reshaping and decolonising South African higher education landscape.
