The impact of Nancy Hornberger's Continua of Biliteracy is here considered. The paper identifies the flows that the Continua has made possible and the ways in which its conceptualization within a multidimensional multidisciplinary dynamic space has transformed not only the study of biliteracy itself but also the broader aspects of sociolinguistics…

This study addressed potential differential effects of EF training as a function of language background. Training monolingual children with EF-fostering challenges and feedback may support them more than multilinguals, who face comparable challenges when switching languages. We assessed monolingual (n = 110) and multilingual (n = 91) 6-year-olds…

Given the popularization of artificial intelligence in education, this study explores this technology's effects on emergent bilinguals' writing and revision. Large Language Models have become prevalent as supports for teachers and students in revising. Yet, research has not examined the intricacies of using these tools with emergent bilinguals.…

This Case Study involves a study that adapted the convergent mixed-methods design to investigate target-language students' learning engagement in an academic writing class via translanguaging at the context of a university in Vietnam. A cohort of 116 English majors was conveniently sampled to respond to a closed-ended questionnaire, and 24 of them…

This article explores how "puntos y rayas" (full stops and lines) function as symbolic and structural barriers in education for language-minoritized students. Through autobiographical reflection and classroom cases, the authors show how rigid boundaries around standardized language and raciolinguistic ideologies marginalize students and…

Through research, storytelling, curriculum development, and pedagogy, this book will help educators engage emergent bilingual and multilingual (EBML) students with social studies and citizenship education. Chapters are written by well-known and new scholars who are enacting teaching and research that center the needs, interests, and experiences of…

In the past decade, research on EFL teachers' beliefs about translanguaging has significantly grown.

This article explores how English language learners (ELLs) negotiate identity and language use across diverse digital environments such as social media, online forums, and language learning platforms. Drawing on sociolinguistic and educational perspectives, it critically reviews studies on digital identity, online communication, and…

Bilingual speakers present a natural phenomenon called code switch (CS) when communicating, where bilinguals or multilinguals alternate their languages during discourse. However, code-switching between two languages does not mean children cannot differentiate between the languages. Rather, code-switching is considered a common aspect of…

In South Africa, where multilingualism is prevalent, codeswitching--a practice of alternating between languages--plays a significant role in shaping classroom dynamics and learning outcomes. This study explores the beliefs of both teachers and learners regarding code-switching in Life Sciences classrooms. Utilizing quantitative methods, the…
