New Book: English-Medium Instruction and Translanguaging (Multilingual
Matters, 2021)
Dear colleagues and friends,
We are happy to announce the publication of our new volume, English-Medium
Instruction and Translanguaging, published by Multilingual
Matters.
This book offers a critical exploration of definitions, methodologies
and ideologies of English-medium instruction (EMI), contributing to new understandings of translanguaging as theory and pedagogy across diverse contexts. It brings together a number of conceptual and empirical studies on translanguaging in EMI at different
educational levels, in a variety of countries, with different approaches to translanguaging, different named languages, and different policies. These studies include several underrepresented contexts across the globe, providing a broad view of how translanguaging
in EMI is understood in these educational settings. Furthermore, this book addresses the complexities of translanguaging through a discussion of the affordances and constraints associated with the use of multiple linguistic resources in the EMI classroom.
Multilingual Matters is currently offering 50% off pre-orders until
January 31st, 2021 (use the code PTT50).
Please feel free to contact us if you would like to know more about
the book.
With best wishes for a healthy 2021,
