This book explores evidence-based, research-informed practical applications of translanguaging pedagogies in a variety of TESOL contexts, including perspectives from scholars in the Global South. Providing insights for teachers and educators into the strategic development of concrete, situated translanguaging approaches, it also explores the challenges of implementing equitable and effective language teaching and learning.Starting by asking, 'What is translanguaging as theory and pedagogy?' and 'Why does it matter in TESOL?' this book considers translanguaging at various educational levels from elementary and secondary classrooms to teacher education. Global contributors examine practices for an international understanding of translanguaging pedagogy, with case studies from Africa, Asia, Europe, and North and Southern America.Through offering both general guidelines and concrete translanguaging-in-action examples, each chapter encourages teachers and educators to reimagine and redesign their classroom spaces. They are also given self-guided resources for professional development, making this book ideal as an introductory resource for teacher education programmes.

This book critically engages with theoretical shifts marked by the ‘multilingual turn’ in applied linguistics, and articulates the complexities associated with naming and engaging with the everyday language practices of bi/multilingual communities. It discusses methodological approaches that enable researchers and educators to observe and interact with these communities and to understand their teaching and learning needs. It also highlights pedagogical approaches and instructional strategies involved with learning and teaching language and/or content curriculum to students across various learning and educational contexts.The book addresses recent debates on the multi/plural turn in applied linguistics and articulates the limitations of these debates - particularly the absence of discussion of social power relations and contexts in applying different theoretical lenses. It features empirical research from primarily North American classrooms to highlight how plurilingual pedagogies take shape in unique educational contexts, resisting monolingual approaches to language in education. Furthermore, it includes commentary/response pieces from established scholars in dialogue with recent plurilingual research in the field, to put the work in critical perspective within extant theories and literature.
