In current research, emotions in language use situations are often examined only at their starting and ending points, akin to observing the beginning and end of a wave, while neglecting their complex fluctuations in between. To fully comprehend the dynamics of emotions in language use situations, it is essential to delve into their intricate…

This study explores how three multilingual learners of Japanese as a second language (L2) at an Australian university negotiate their language and (imagined) identities in relation to their L2 learning. Based on interview data, the results indicate that while the participants' imagined identities were closely connected with…

Language is a source of power that preserves the status quo in its relationships with learners and mathematics. However, there is a dearth of research that examines how multiple systems of power (e.g., racism, cisheteropatriarchy, colonialism) shape variation in structural inequality and experiences of oppression for language learners. This…

For many years, educational systems did not prioritize humanizing strategies for neurodivergent students. This has been a challenge, especially in teaching racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse students who concurrently are neurodivergent. Recognizing and supporting the intersectionality of multiple layers of identity, both the…

With a focus on Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CaLD) women, this article will discuss the underlying gender inequalities and stereotypes these women experience in Australian tertiary institutions through reflections of translingual discrimination. Translingual discrimination refers to the ideologies and practices that produce unequal…

This article first provides a framing of how raciolinguistics exists in the world despite global progress in the past century. Raciolinguistics is then defined within a historical context that leads to Europeanness versus non-Europeanness (white or nonwhite) differentiation, social hierarchies, racial oppression, and modern-day linguistic…

TrUDL is a pedagogical approach that considers the intersections of "translanguaging" and "Universal Design for Learning" (UDL) to support the needs of students in any classroom, but especially emergent multilinguals labeled as disabled (EMLADs). In this article, we offer tools to help educators ensure their lessons support the…

Literacy is complex and impacts safety in nursing. When using language, nurses are constantly switching between medical language proficiency, academic language proficiency, and social language proficiency. The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to trial an English language exam specific to the nursing profession -- the Canadian English…

This study addresses the need for inclusive AI education by focusing on marginalized female students who historically lack access to learning opportunities in computing. It applies the theoretical framework of intersectionality to understand how gender, race and ethnicity intersect to shape these students' learning experiences and outcomes.…

In this study, the authors address the case of STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) content teachers in an English medium instruction (EMI) environment in Kazakhstan to argue that the professional needs and identities of these teachers are considerably different than the specialist English teachers who teach English language skills…

Though "Lau v. Nichols (Lau)" has garnered substantial educational gains for multilingual learners (MLs), we address two limitations. Namely, there is a need to historicize the interlocking language, ability, and racial differences and to examine MLs through an intersectional lens. We delineate the historical entanglements of language,…

While language education programs were created with an equity stance in mind--with the goals of increasing access and facilitating academic success for ethnically and linguistically marginalized students--the larger educational context has compromised access for multiply marginalized students. Recognizing a need for more complex understandings of…

Emotion labor is so rooted in power structures of English learning and teaching that it pervades the everyday lives of language teachers and shapes their language teacher identities (LTIs). However, few studies have documented the emotion labor of Black women educators as they teach English abroad. Adopting an intersectional approach to emotion…

We report on a long-term collaboration with ninth-grade mathematics teachers at a linguistically diverse high school in which we examined the intersection between mathematics and language, and how language and mathematical thinking can be developed together in a multilingual setting. We co-designed lessons that promoted conceptual understanding,…

This longitudinal qualitative case study contextualizes the dynamic interplay of race, language, and disability through a conceptual framework grounded in the principles of Raciolinguistics, DisCrit theory, and Intersectionality to surface the tensions between the way a language-racialized student labeled as a 'long-term English learner' and…
