This book lays out a radical new all-in approach to teaching in linguistically diverse classrooms: that everyone, including those who already speak the school language, is included in multilingual pedagogy. The author argues that school language speakers are the missing piece in multilingual teaching and provides a new resource, Linguistically…

Plurilingual pedagogies determine that the totality of the students' linguistic and cultural repertoires should be brought into the teaching and learning process. Despite the still prevailing monolingual norm in educational institutions of today, more and more reports on student and teacher recognition of plurilingual approaches as a valuable…

This paper reports on a comparative case study of the multilingual practices of eight secondary teachers of English from across India, all identified as experts of their contexts using multiple criteria. Both qualitative and quantitative data from classroom observations, interviews and other sources were collected, analysed and compared across…

This article examines multilingual language use in two groups of children, one group at a state school, and one at a private IB school. The IB school has earlier been assumed to reflect an 'elite' multilingualism. Three research questions are posed: to what extent is the children's language use multilingual, what are their typological profiles,…

Educational actions that establish connections between language, culture, and power construct ideologies of languages and their speakers. The study of linguistic landscapes in education (i.e. schoolscapes) offers a lens to analyse the material manifestation of such ideologies. As a venture in participatory research, this paper investigates how…

This study examined how beginner teachers integrate language teaching into content subjects after their initial teacher education (ITE). Grounded in a blend of pedagogical theories, sociocultural perspectives, and reflective practice frameworks, it examined the experiences of 10 participants from a previous 2021 study when they were pre-service…

English Medium Instruction (EMI) has been defined as 'the use of the English language to teach academic subjects (other than English itself) in countries or jurisdictions where the first language (L1) of the majority of the population is not English' (Macaro, 2018, p. 19). This definition has proved to be controversial but has underpinned the work…

The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 marks a significant shift in India's educational framework, particularly with its emphasis on multilingual education (MLE) and mother tongue-based instruction (MTI).

This mixed-methods case study develops a monolingual-multilingual continuum that depicts how multilingual students draw on their linguistic repertoire as a resource when undertaking assessments in journalism education. Guided by Hult and Hornberger's heuristic for considering language planning and policy as a resource, the central question the…

The concept of Dominant Language Constellations (DLC) is complementary to the notion of language repertoire. It denotes the set of a person's most expedient languages, functioning as an entire unit and enabling an individual to meet all their needs in a multilingual environment. While a language repertoire refers to the totality of linguistic…

The aim is to analyze the psychological…

This study aims to provide a bibliometric analysis of the status of multilingualism in EMI research, research topics on multilingualism in EMI and future research directions. Based on a sample of 175 articles from Web of Science (WoS), the results show that (1) multilingualism in EMI research has been gradually growing since 2000 and it comes to a…

The notion of multilingual students' first language has been advocated as a resource in mathematics learning for some time. However, few studies have investigated how implementing students' L1 in the teaching practice impacts multilingual students' mathematics learning opportunities. Based on a 9-month-long ethnographic study conducted in Iran, we…

Multilingual education is an urgent and pressing concern in the Indian educational scenario. While the National Education Policy (2020) acknowledges multilingualism as a resource in educational contexts and reiterates earlier policies calling for mother tongue-based education in elementary classrooms, it does not provide guidance in terms of how…

This qualitative study explores translanguaging beliefs among translingual TESOL teacher educators in connection to broader sociolinguistic realities and ideological frameworks in Qazaqstan's multilingual context.
