Abstract:

This volume challenges traditional approaches to foreign language education
and proposes to redefine them in our age of international migration and
globalization. Foreign language classrooms are no longer populated by
monolingual students, but increasingly by multilingual students with highly
diverse language backgrounds. This necessitates a new understanding of foreign
language learning and teaching. The volume brings together an international
group of researchers of high caliber who specialize in third language
acquisition, teaching English as an additional language, and multilingual
education. In addition to topical overview articles on the multilingual
policies pursued in Europe, Africa, North America, and Asia, as well as
several contributions dealing with theoretical issues regarding
multilingualism and plurilingualism, the volume also offers cutting edge case
studies from multilingual acquisition research and foreign language classroom
practice. Throughout the volume, multilingualism is interpreted as a valuable
resource that can facilitate language education provided it is harnessed in
appropriate conditions.
