02.11.2020 - 03.11.2020, 23:59
University of Basel, Institute for Educational Sciences, FHNW Campus, Hofackerstrasse 30, 4132 Muttenz (near Basel)
Institute for Educational Sciences (University of Basel) in cooperation with the Schaffhausen University of Teacher Education
This conference takes a transdisciplinary approach to translanguaging in education. It examines how translanguaging is perceived, its impact and its implications, especially in the classroom. We are particularly interested in the relationship between everyday linguistic practices and language policies in education. To what extent are multilingualism and translanguaging taken into account as institutional issues in educational public spaces? What are the linguistic practices of various stakeholders in their diverse educational institutions?
In the light of the worldwide situation with the COVID-19 virus, we would like to extend the deadline of our call for papers by 7 June 2020 (second extended deadline).
