Focus: The International Summer School in “Language Policy and Language Planning: education, languages and migrations” aims at providing theoretical and practical competences in the field of multilingualism. The Summer School of this year (in its 2nd Edition) is entitled “Teacher as a Language Policy Maker”.
Minimum Education Level: Undergraduate


Description:
International studies on the concept of “teacher agency” (Priestley, Biesta &
Robinson, 2015) has gained a key-role in educational linguistic research in
the past few years. 

For a long time, in language policy research the central role of teachers has
been overlooked; yet teachers are key agents in the implementation of policies
at the classroom level (Chua & Baldauf, 2011) and often show resistance to
top-down policies. In the post-modern era, teachers are also called to promote
processes of inversion of power relations, not only in the school
micro-contexts, but also at a social level (García 2016). 

On the base of the above-mentioned theoretical background, the main topics of
the seminars and workshops of the Summer School will be the following: 

- Teacher agency and advocacy in the field of language rights 

- Ethnography of language policy 

- Implementing multilingual education in class and global citizenship -
oriented education 

- Translanguaging as a pedagogical praxis and as a research perspective 

- Teachers’ development and Critical Multilingual Language Awareness 

- Language-cultural mediation and language brokering 

In addition, specific information concerning qualitative and quantitative
research methodologies in linguistic, educational linguistic, sociolinguistic
and ethnographic fields will be provided.

Prof. Christine Hélot (University of Strasbourg, France)
