What is Translanguaging in Schools All About? 

Teachers in any program (whether they are bilingual or not!) can embrace and enact translanguaging pedagogy. Participants are invited to engage in a live online session and asynchronous learning activities in which we will examine the concept of translanguaging and the role it does and can play in schools with bilingual learners. 

 

Together we will explore fundamental questions such as: What is translanguaging? When and why does it happen? What is translanguaging pedagogy? How could I begin to take up translanguaging pedagogy in my classroom? Why would I want to?

TARGET AUDIENCE: K-12 educators
