Theoretical and Applied Perspectives on Teaching Foreign Languages in Multilingual Settings Summary

Theoretical and Applied Perspectives on Teaching Foreign Languages in Multilingual Settings: Pedagogical Implications by Anna Krulatz

This book promotes linguistically responsive foreign language teaching practices in multilingual contexts by facilitating a dialogue between teachers and researchers. It advances a discussion of how to connect the acquisition of subsequent foreign languages with previous language knowledge to create culturally and linguistically inclusive foreign language classrooms, and how to strengthen the connection between research on multilingualism and foreign language teaching practice. The chapters present new approaches to foreign language instruction in multilingual settings, many of them forged in collaboration between foreign language teachers and researchers of multilingualism. The authors report findings of classroom-based research, including case studies and action research on topics such as the functions and applications of translanguaging in the foreign language classroom, the role of learners' own languages in teaching additional languages, linguistically and culturally inclusive foreign language pedagogies, and teacher and learner attitudes to multilingual teaching approaches.

Theoretical and Applied Perspectives on Teaching Foreign Languages in Multilingual Settings Reviews

Driven by passion, the authors in this inspiring book contribute to the paradigm shift in foreign language teaching in multilingual classrooms. The researchers explore innovative ways to close the gap between theory and classroom practices in the interest of learners and teachers. The book represents an important contribution to this expanding field. * Durk Gorter, University of the Basque Country; Ikerbasque, Basque Foundation for Science, Spain *
This innovative, timely volume bridges the gap between the exciting theoretical advancement of the multilingual turn and the classroom practices in foreign language teaching. It is genuinely inspiring for multilingually aware teachers, especially those who work in traditional foreign language settings and who wish to draw on learners' holistic linguistic repertoire and to enact pedagogical translanguaging in diverse language classrooms. * Yongyan Zheng, Fudan University, China *
Multilingualism is the norm in most societies across the globe. In this ambitious and highly relevant book, the authors bring together fresh and significant insights on multilingualism from a variety of perspectives and educational contexts. * Asta Haukas, University of Bergen, Norway *

The main advantage of the volume is that it presents real-life examples reductionistically, by breaking down aspects of certain multilingual teaching practices by specific multilingual contexts and levels of education, and then drawing conclusions holistically [...] Overall, the volume succeeds in illustrating hands-on approaches to FL instruction, always respecting the complexities of multilingualism and inclusion.

-- Elena I. Madinyan, Peoples' Friendship University of Russia and Maurice Cassidy, International House London * Training, Language and Culture, Volume 6 Issue 3, 2022 *
