Multilingualism and Multimodality: Current Challenges for Educational Studies

by Ingrid De Saint-Georges (Editor), Jean-Jacques Weber (Editor)

By providing careful analyses of policies and interactions in superdiverse, technologically complex, educational contexts, the authors of this volume contribute something they give a shape—a semiotic form—to some of the issues raised by transnational migration, sociocultural diversity, and digital complexity. They construct a framework for reflecting about the new social order and its impact on education. They also reveal the kinds of new questions and new terrains that can and must be explored by linguistic research if it wants to stay relevant for education in these times of change.
