Teaching and Learning: Theory vs. Practice

Translanguaging to Honor Culture and Identities with Adelfio Garcia


Listen Later

In this episode, we talk to Adelfio Garcia about translanguaging.  We learn translanguaging is when a multilingual person's full linguistic repertoire is used and honored. Mr. Garcia explains some of the fears and underlying biases teachers may have with accepting multiple expressions of learning in the classroom. We also discuss our experiences with the term “melting pot” and its connotations.
