The most up-to-date reference text on the latest science in plurilingual and intercultural language education, covering both new research and current practice

The Handbook of Plurilingual and Intercultural Language Learning reveals the nuances and complexities of teaching and learning languages while providing a timely account of the most recent developments and research in the field. The first reference work to examine plurilingual and intercultural language teaching and learning trends across five continents, this innovative volume examines the various ways learners acquire language.

Divided into four sections, this Handbook explains the conceptual basis of intercultural and plurilingual learning, describes core pedagogical concepts in different contexts, discusses various learning and teaching approaches, and surveys the historical development of foreign language instruction, methods, and theories. In-depth chapters address code-switching and translanguaging, equity in foreign language learning, intercultural sensitivity, technology-enhanced learning, world Englishes, the role of language policy in nation-building, the situations of migrants in language classrooms, and more.

A field-defining overview of the latest research on the science of language education and acquisition, The Handbook of Plurilingual and Intercultural Language Learning:

  • Explores how policy and pedagogy can adapt to the shifting demographics of local student populations as the world becomes increasingly mobile
  • Addresses new trends and evolving themes that are currently determining the future of language education and policy around the world
  • Discusses future trends in language education policy, assessment, and teacher training in light of new attitudes about language, community, and statehood
  • Features contributions from a wide range of scholars reflecting different cultural, linguistic, regional, and ideological perspectives
  • Introduces European research discourses on intercomprehension into the English-speaking world

Part of the Wiley Blackwell Handbooks in Linguistics series, The Handbook of Plurilingual and Intercultural Language Learning is an essential resource for students, educators, and researchers in Applied Linguistics, language teaching and learning, English as a Lingua Franca, plurilingualism/multilingualism, TESOL, cognitive linguistics, language policy, language acquisition, and intercultural communication.
