Summary

Providing an original reconsideration of the impact of translanguaging, this book examines both transnationality and translinguality as ubiquitous phenomena that affect students’ lives.

Additional text

"This important volume extends the growing body of scholarship on translingualism and transnationalism by helping us think beyond the assumption that teachers are only ever 'experts' of language and that students are only ever ‘learners’ of language. As Robinson, Hall, and Navarro demonstrate, we need to be mindful of the ways in which students are agents, and indeed experts, of languaging as well. Such a reminder is important for all researchers, teachers, and program administrators interested in supporting multilingual students."
-Jerry Won Lee, Associate Professor, University of California, Irvine, USA
