Carolyn McKinney; Robyn Tyler – Reading & Writing: Journal of the Literacy Association of South Africa, 2024
Background: While the concept of translanguaging has gained significant traction in education in multilingual contexts, it is also debated and contested. Claims are made about what translanguaging can and cannot do, how different it might be from code-switching, whether it arises from a single repertoire of language resources or from use of…

Natalia Carrillo – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Cummins (2018) argued that "emergent bilingual students struggle, often unsuccessfully, to escape from the externally imposed identity cocoon within which they find themselves" (p. x). This struggle leads to negative views and deficit thinking approaches to educating these students. In today's educational context, meeting the cognitive…

Nompumelelo Mohohlwane; Stephen Taylor; Jacobus Cilliers; Brahm Fleisch – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
In many countries, children need to become proficient in both their home language (L1) and an international language, such as English (L2). Governments face tradeoffs in how to prioritize these two objectives. We provide empirical evidence on cross-linguistic transfer between L1 and L2, using the results of two randomized evaluations of Structured…

Salmerón, Cori – Bilingual Research Journal, 2022
While scholars across a range of disciplines challenge the idea that bi/multilinguals have separate linguistic repertoires, monolingual expectations are common in bilingual education. Using elements of case study design and discourse analysis, I explore translanguaging as both a dynamic linguistic practice and a linguistically sustaining pedagogy…

Context: The island of Malta is a former British colony, and to this day, education continues to be accessed bilingually. For mathematics education, Maltese and English are used for verbal interaction, with subject-specific words tending to be retained in English. Written mathematics texts are in English, including textbooks, worksheets, digital…

Doris Ann Villarreal – Bilingual Research Journal, 2024
This qualitative case study examines how one bilingual teacher draws on their critical consciousness to support immigrant students and their families. Drawing on the construct of conscientization, I argue praxis is the embodiment of critical consciousness through acts of responsiveness and actions educators enact to rewrite unjust spaces and…

Background or Context: Dual language education aims to foster the development of bilingualism, biliteracy, sociocultural competence, and academic skills in all school subjects. Early correlational research suggests that participation in dual language education is associated with higher achievement. Recent studies leveraged more comprehensive sets…

Martínez Hinestroza, José; Peña-Pincheira, Romina S.; Adams Corral, Melissa – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2023
Previous research on bilingual mathematics education has proposed that as children "language mathematics" they use multiple sources of meaning. In this paper, we focus on lexical inventions--bilingual children's made up words that are not formally defined or used but follow the phonology and morphology of a language--as a source of…

Leung, Genevieve; Calcagno, Serena; Tong, Rosina; Uchikoshi, Yuuko – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2022
While the role of parental ideologies on children's bi/multilingual development and the role of children's beliefs about multilingualism are well-documented, less work examines how parental and student ideologies are enacted through talk. That is, how do students interpret what their family caregivers tell them about bi/multilingualism, and how do…

Valentina Carbonara; Andrea Scibetta; Jacopo Torregrossa – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024
The present study investigates whether exposure to multilingual pedagogies enhances emergent bilingual children's narrative abilities.

We compare two groups of emergent bilingual children with migrant background attending the fourth and fifth grade of a public…

Smith, Sara; Carlo, María Soledad; Plaza, Ester García; Santiago, Carla Zayas; Young, Denise Jimenez – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2023
Research suggests that elementary English Learners (ELs) benefit from interactive dual-language vocabulary instruction delivered one-on-one or in small groups. However, there are many barriers to providing this type of instruction to all ELs, including time constraints and bilingual teacher shortages. Thus, there is a high need for innovative,…
