Language Teaching and Learning
Volume Editor:
This edited volume emphasizes the critical role of macro, meso and micro factors in development of multilingual and multicultural environment for learning and teaching. The collection advocates for inclusive education, safe spaces for both teachers and students, teachers and students’ agency, educators’ reflection, and continuous professional development. It promotes the idea of multilingualism as a learning resource by overcoming a monolingual bias and language ideologies and by taking learners’ individual differences, social, economic and political factors into consideration. The originality of this collection is in its diversity spanning linguistic, sociocultural, and pedagogical dimensions.

Implications for Curriculum, Teacher Preparation and Pedagogical Practice
Volume Editor:
Despite the superdiversity of an increasingly multicultural and multilingual world, policy and practice in education continues to deal with issues of inclusion and diversity in language education in rather tangential and peripheral ways. To address critical issues in multicultural and multilingual education, with implications for curriculum, teacher preparation and pedagogical practice, this volume brings together international perspectives on research, policy and pedagogical practice that help the global community gain new insights into ground-breaking work that addresses current questions, challenges and complexities in an education world of superdiversity.

The Teaching of English as a Foreign Language Enables Sexual Predation
Author:
Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) enables sexual predation across the wide range of activities and locales it encompasses, beyond schools and inclusive of voluntourist and aid programmes where EFL is taught. This predation is carried out not only by male Native-speaking English Teachers (NETs) on their students, peers, and members of local communities but also carried out on female NETs and EFL students by locals. Is TEFL inherently sexist, utilising gender-biased texts? This book is the first to examine in considerable detail such English language sexual imperialism and to suggest ways to curtail it.

Compositions from the Feminist Fringe
Author:
Through her use of the scholarly personal narrative and braided essay form, McGowan weaves strands of rhetoric with creative writing, navigating complex themes with academic rigor and emotional introspection. Her blend of equal parts humor, gravitas, and scholarship invites readers to explore the complexities of being a woman in a male-dominated world while looking at how writers might use coping mechanisms and transgressive workarounds, from code-switching to storytelling.
With critical analyses of feminist discourse and a roadmap for navigating the ever-evolving landscape of gender politics, the essays in this book challenge us to rethink traditional thinking about gender and equality. Writing is Revision is a call to action, an ode to the power of the written word for anyone interested in feminism and literature.

A Comparative Study of Language Diversity within Education Systems in France and Aotearoa New Zealand
Author:
In many parts of the world, there is a growing interest in how existing linguistic knowledge is involved in the acquisition of further languages; in particular how learning the language of schooling can be improved through inclusion of students’ home languages. This theme gathers around it a rich international network of multilingual researchers interested in promoting the benefits of bilingual and plurilingual education, the recognition of linguistic and cultural diversity in schools, and strategies for supporting young migrants to succeed in schools.
Young Migrants and Plurilingualism in Schools: A Comparative Study of Language Diversity within Education Systems in France and Aotearoa, New Zealand presents findings from the author’s Ph.D. study carried out during 2017–2019 with young migrants and their teachers in France and New Zealand. These findings provide evidence for plurilingual learning spaces as improving student participation, interaction, sense of wellbeing and social cohesion—all elements of democratic coexistence in culturally and linguistically diverse societies.
