New Perspectives on Translanguaging and Education
This edited collection explores the immense potential of translanguaging in educational settings and highlights teachers and students negotiating language ideologies in their everyday communicative practices. It makes a significant contribution to scholarship on translanguaging and considers the need for pedagogy to reflect and embrace diversity.

This book will be of interest to students and researchers, especially in education, language education and applied linguistics, as well as to professionals and policymakers.

Learning Languages, Being Social
This book addresses increasingly diverse language learning trajectories in a modern, globalized world, specifically outside of formal classroom situations and with respect to second and additional language practices. This includes, but is not restricted to, intersections of formal and informal learning, computer-mediated contexts as well as family contexts and language learning in multilingual contexts.

It is unique in its focus and scope and is relevant to anthropologists and linguists, who are interested in the intersection of language and culture.
