Terra Blevins – ProQuest LLC, 2024
While large language models (LLMs) continue to grow in scale and gain new zero-shot capabilities, their performance for languages beyond English increasingly lags behind. This gap is due to the "curse of multilinguality," where multilingual language models perform worse on individual languages than a monolingual model trained on that…

Maxime Van Raemdonck; Robyn Tyler; Piet Van Avermaet; Wendelien Vantieghem – Current Issues in Language Planning, 2024
Over the past two decades, heightened migration has increased linguistic diversity in schools. For schools to cope with this multilingualism, many governments impose a monolingual policy where only the language of instruction is allowed. Although many schools adopt such a policy, the classroom practices may differ since multilingual students often…

Xiangyun Li; Qi Shen – Current Issues in Language Planning, 2024
It is increasingly recognized that agency plays an essential role in shaping language-in-education policy (LEP) and influencing the learning process. Research on agency has not yet adequately engaged with the field of heritage education and maintenance in diasporas. Drawing on Shohamy's and Bonacina-Pugh's conceptualization of declared, perceived,…

Irfan Tosuncuoglu – Pegem Journal of Education and Instruction, 2024
In the geographies where various languages are spoken, individuals may have to experience learning one or more languages to fulfil their needs. When societies who live together and use various language groups make contact with people who use other language groups and cultures, they have to interact with each other. This mutual effect is then…

Keyla Nohemy Cueto – ProQuest LLC, 2024
The academic achievement of Hispanic students is not increasing as much as the population is in schools across the United States. Although existing research explores the Hispanic achievement gap, none solely compares the relationship between Hispanic multilingual (ML) and Hispanic non-multilingual (non-ML) students. As the Hispanic population…

Lee, Huan Yik; Hamid, M. Obaidul; Hardy, Ian – Current Issues in Language Planning, 2022
Although most international organisations are, in principle, multilingual, the ten-member Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) has adopted a radical approach by operating monolingually, ostensibly for convenience and pragmatism. In order to provide an evaluation of the ASEAN policy context, this paper compares and contrasts ASEAN to two…

Pang, Bonnie – Sport, Education and Society, 2022
The study of the body remains dominated by Western scholars examining Western bodies and using Western conceptualisations of the body. Though mainstream sociology of the body research is founded within dualisms, often privileging one side of a binary opposition at the expense of another, a thread within Chinese philosophies cut across such…

Williams, Emma – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2021
Derrida's autobiographical and philosophical text 'Monolingualism of the Other; or, the Prosthesis of Origin" is a partial recounting of his own childhood and upbringing in Algeria at a time when it was a colony of France. It is on one level a reflection on matters related to colonialism, and especially on the effects of the imposition of…

Riccardo Amorati – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
Language-specific (i.e. the ideal L2 self) and plurilingual selves are now at the forefront of scholarly inquiry in L2 motivation research. Yet, there is a lack of empirical studies examining how language learners reframe their sense of self as speakers of an L2. This study draws on a questionnaire (N = 162) and on semi-structured interviews (N =…

Beisbart, Claus – Language Learning, 2021
Does complexity make multilingualism special? Since there is no unequivocal notion of complexity on which researchers agree, several characteristics that have been considered crucial for complexity are brought to bear on multilingualism. While multilingualism is fairly complex in some senses, for instance, because it requires that many variables…

Christa de Kleine; Rachele Lawton; Mark Fenster – Community College Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Community colleges across the United States are increasingly linguistically diverse, with populations that often include immigrant students who have grown up with a language other than English but have spent a significant part of their childhood in the U.S. and as such received a substantial part of their -K-12 education there. In this paper, we…
