Klappentext zu „Activating Linguistic and Cultural Diversity in the Language Classroom “
This book challenges the reader to rethink and reimagine what diversity in language education means in transnational societies. Bringing together researchers and practitioners who contributed to the international LINguistic and Cultural DIversity REinvented (LINCDIRE) project, the book examines four pillars of innovation in language education: the Action-oriented approach, Plurilingualism, Indigenous epistemologies and Technology enhanced learning. The book critically discusses plurilingual pedagogical approaches that draw on learners' linguistic and cultural repertoires to encourage and support the dynamic use of languages in curricular innovation. It is a fundamental resource for language teachers, curriculum designers and educational researchers interested in understanding current thinking on the relevance and benefit of a plurilingual paradigm shift for language education in today's societies. More specifically, this book:
- Examines the development of plurilingualism and the potential of real-life oriented teaching and learning.
- Explores the concept of plurilingual and pluricultural competence.
- Focuses on collaboration and reflection from a humanistic tradition.
- Explores educational technology and explains the limitations and challenges of adopting ready-made tools.
- Highlights the iterative, design-based research process that informed the development of LINCDIRE's pedagogical framework and action-oriented scenarios.
- Introduces practical examples of action-oriented tasks and scenarios, and illustrates the online tool (LITE) in terms of its current functionalities and design. Describes the implementation challenges and opportunities of plurilingual action-oriented tasks and discusses the results of implementation.
