Teacher Collaboration and Talk in Multilingual Classrooms
Author: Angela Creese
language: en
Publisher: Multilingual Matters
Release Date: 2005-01-01
This volume looks at the interactions of collaborating teachers in multilingual classrooms and how these impact on what counts as knowledge in the secondary school classroom. It also looks at how policy statements and ideologies around multilingualism position teachers and learners in particular ways. A linguistic ethnographic approach is taken in the study, which considers the discourses of whole class and small group teaching and learning. Chapters consider the relation between different languages, different pedagogues and different teacher identities in the secondary school classroom. The book documents how a policy of inclusion is played out in practice.
Language and Learning in Multilingual Classrooms

Release Date: 2012-06-25
This book is a research-based practical guide for educators who work with students whose linguistic and cultural background is different from their own. Illustrated with many practical examples of classroom activities, projects, and teaching strategies, the book is also an introduction to immigrant education for school administrators and educational planners in communities or regions that are in the process of developing plans and programs for newcomer students. Although the focus is on first-generation immigrant children, many of the recommended approaches and instructional strategies described in this book can be used or adapted for use with second-generation children and historical linguistic and cultural minorities, such as children from Aboriginal communities in North America or children of Roma background in Europe.
TALK in Multilingual Classrooms
This volume presents a variety of concepts, practices, and experiences in the field of content learning through the additional language(s) of learners in a migration society. It contains reflections on the complex interplay between the unifying characteristics of monolingual and multilingual programmes and their often diverging, local, and contextual interpretations and implementations. In addition, it describes how migration pedagogy has become a catalyst for discussing the ideological and power aspects of language learning and how a hegemony-critical attitude needs to become an integral part of classroom language learning and communicating. In this context, the deliberate development of Teachers' Awareness of Language Knowledge (TALK) through a variety of supportive measures is considered to be of central pedagogical importance. Principles and practical applications of TALK for the classroom are discussed and evaluated.
