Abstract:
Research on academic literacy within higher education has focused almost
exclusively on the development of academic literacy in English. This book is
unique in showing how students use other languages when they engage with
written academic content – whether in reading, discussing or writing – and how
increasingly multilingual higher education campuses open up the possibility
for students to exploit their multilingual repertoires in and around
reading/writing for academic purposes. Chapters range from cases of informal
student use of different written languages, to pedagogical, institutional and
disciplinary strategies leveraging multilingual resources to develop
biliteracy. They are ordered according to two dominant themes. The first
includes accounts of diverse multilingual contexts where biliteracy practices
emerge in response to the demands of academic reading and writing. The second
theme focuses on more deliberate attempts to teach biliteracy or to teach in a
way that supports biliteracy. The collection will be of interest to
researchers, higher education practitioners and students of multilingual
higher education and academic literacy.
