New Pathways in Multimodal and Multilingual Learning: Moving Beyond Normative Practices

Sat, April 15, 9:50 to 11:20am CDT (9:50 to 11:20am CDT), Swissôtel Chicago, Floor: Event Centre, 1st Floor, Zurich F

Session Type: Working Group Roundtable

Abstract

This working group roundtable brings together six papers from different corners of the world, mixing physical and online contexts, to reframe the intersections between translanguaging and multimodality, as pedagogical possibilities and ways to disrupt knowledge creation. The papers in this section move past traditional, prescriptive forms of theory interplay, which usually place some communities as producers and others as mere consumers. This session argues for the need to create new pathways and ways to embrace conceptual and methodological diversity, where the Global North and Global South disrupt how we share and create knowledge, as the “pursuit of truth” is only possible through equitable knowledge trade and conversations.
