Abstract:

Through a range of unconventional genres, representations of data, and
dialogic, reflective narratives alongside more traditional academic genres,
this book engages with contexts of decoloniality and border thinking in the
Global South. It addresses processes of knowledge production and participation
in the highly divided and unequal schooling and higher education system in
South Africa, and highlights the consequences of the monolingual myth in
post-colonial education, demonstrating opportunities for learning provided by
translanguaging. It explores both embodied, multimodal and multilingual
instances of knowledge-making in teaching and teacher education that take
place outside but alongside formal classroom, lecture and seminar modes, and
the positionality and learning experiences of teacher educators in science,
literacy and language across the curriculum. The book is not only
transdisciplinary but also captures the learning that takes place beyond the
borders of disciplines and formal classroom spaces.
