It brings together a variety of conceptual and empirical studies on translanguaging in EMI at different educational levels, in a variety of countries, with different approaches to translanguaging, different named languages, and different policies. These studies include a number of underrepresented contexts across the globe, providing a broad view of how translanguaging theory and pedagogy in EMI is understood in these educational contexts. Furthermore, this book addresses the complexities of translanguaging through a discussion of the affordances and constraints associated with the use of multiple linguistic resources in the EMI classroom.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>[This book] offers a fresh, global, and well-documented look at the interplay of English-medium instruction (EMI) and translanguaging theory and pedagogy. The book is organised in eleven compelling and comprehensible chapters. Together, the chapters present cutting-edge empirical research, which unpacks current practices and provides reflections on language use in the EMI classroom, from primary school to higher education.</p>--Irene Soriano Flórez, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain "E-JournALL, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2021"<br><br><p>Disrupting the traditional monoglossic, monolingual interpretation of the 'E' in English-medium instruction (EMI), the many authors in this timely work contribute to showing how inclusive EMI can be designed and practiced with the translanguaging lens. A must-read for all EMI educators, parents, students, and policymakers.</p>-- "Angel Lin, Simon Fraser University, Canada"<br><br><p>This book provides another avenue for both policy-makers and language practitioners to understand how translanguaging bridges education and daily communication and to revisit the relationship of dominance and superiority from a Global South perspective (Pennycook and Makoni, 2020).</p>--Chuotong Huang and Fan Fang, Shantou University, China "RELC Journal 1- 3"<br><br>As English-medium instruction (EMI) continues to proliferate across the world, this volume offers a timely critique of its ideology and policy. The empirical studies of translanguaging in diverse EMI contexts show the complexities and challenges of a multilingual approach to teaching and learning. Lessons can be learned from the studies in this fascinating volume, with far-reaching implications for policy, practice and theory-building.-- "Li Wei, UCL Centre for Applied Linguistics, UK"<br><br>This truly international volume is a must-read for all those interested in the interface between translanguaging and English-medium instruction. Despite the pervasive presence of recalcitrant monolingual ideologies, the contributors clearly attest that the exclusive use of English is unnatural, unrealistic and, on too many occasions, harmful, while translanguaging, if cogently theorized and implemented (not at any cost), is legitimized as a natural, reasonable and beneficial practice.-- "David Lasagabaster, University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU, Spain"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>BethAnne Paulsrud is a Senior Lecturer of English at Dalarna University, Sweden.
