Provides the teaching methods and strategies educators need to foster diverse, inclusive and unbiased classroom environments.
This book helps classroom teachers and educational leaders to support Asian American students in a variety of school settings, exploring their dual language use, literacy development and multifaceted identity (re)construction.
Contributing to the fields of multi/plurilingual and multi/pluricultural education, it synthesizes key philosophical concepts, theories and perspectives that contemporary educators should be familiar with when working with racially, linguistically and culturally diverse student populations. It draws on 10 years of data from Korean heritage language schools and addresses topics such as translanguaging, culturally responsive and sustaining pedagogy, transnationalism, AsianCrit theory and raciolinguistic ideologies.
This book provides teachers, teacher educators and parents with valuable knowledge and understanding of how to adequately support students from diverse backgrounds in inclusive and unbiased classrooms.
Kudos to Chaehyun Lee for this excellent new volume for teachers! I was especially impressed at her ability to illustrate critical cutting-edge sociolinguistic theories through sharing such inspiring student and teacher data from Korean heritage language classrooms – in a way that seems approachable for teachers and teacher education. This book is part of an overdue movement to bring the Asian bilingual experience into the heart of the field of bilingual education.
This timely scholarly work illuminates the transformative intersections of multilingualism, culture, and educational equity. Drawing upon critical theories of language and identity, this book offers educators a deeply researched framework for cultivating inclusive, justice-oriented classrooms. This book is an important addition to multilingual and multicultural education.
Chaehyun Lee is Associate Professor at Southeastern Oklahoma State University, USA. Her research interests include bilingual and multilingual education, social justice and equity education.
