Transforming Schooling for Second Language Learners: Theoretical Insights, Policies, Pedagogies, and Practices. Research in Second Language Learning

The purpose of "Transforming Schooling for Second Language Learners: Theoretical Insights, Policies, Pedagogies, and Practices" is to bring together educational researchers and practitioners who have implemented, documented, or examined policies, pedagogies, and practices in and out of classrooms and in real and virtual contexts that are in some way transforming what is known about the extent to which emergent bilinguals (EBs) learn and achieve in educational settings. In this book, scholars and researchers identify both (1) the current state of schooling for EBs, from their perspective, and (2) the particular ways that policies, pedagogies, and/or practices transform schooling as it currently exists for EBs in discernible ways based on their scholarship and research. Drawing on current and seminal research in fields including second language acquisition, applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, and educational linguistics, contributing authors draw on complementary theoretical, methodological, and philosophical frameworks that attend to the social, cultural, political, and ideological dimensions of being and becoming bi/multilingual and bi/multiliterate in schools and in the United States. The aim of this book is to highlight perspectives, conceptualizations, orientations, and ideologies that disrupt and contest legacies of deficit thinking, linguistic purism, language standardization, and racism and the racialization of ethnolinguistic minorities. Following the Introduction and Overview by Mariana Pacheco, P. Zitlali Morales, and Colleen Hamilton, this book contains the following chapters: (1) Spinning Trump's Language: Cracking the Code and Transforming Identities and Ideologies (Aria Razfar); (2) Dual Language Teachers as a Potentially Democratizing Force in English Learner Education (Donaldo Macedo and Lilia I.
