Description

Teaching and Learning in Multilingual Contexts: Sociolinguistic and Educational Perspectives offers insights into the complexities of multilingual education. The book explores how different contexts, driven by demographic and social factors, shape educational practices and solutions. By examining empirical data and theoretical contributions, this volume uncovers common themes and practices across seemingly diverse Western multilingual contexts. It also investigates the role of language terminology in complex multilingual realities and the impact of age on classroom settings. This book provides a nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities in multilingual education, highlighting the need for context-specific approaches that consider the motivations of learners and teachers, as well as attitudes towards multilingualism and 'otherness'.
