This collection brings together research from established and emerging scholars on maintaining and revitalising minoritized and heritage languages among children and young people through multimodal projects in formal and non-formal educational contexts.
The volume brings insights into teaching practices and social programmes at both primary and secondary education levels that enhance the learning and use of these languages. Part I examines minoritised languages in non-formal settings, highlighting the role of digital practices, social media, and arts-based initiatives in fostering pluriliteracies beyond the classroom. Part II focuses on heritage languages in formal education, illustrating how multimodal pedagogies can support inclusion, critical multilingual awareness and culturally responsive teaching. Across contexts, the volume emphasises learner agency, identity affirmation and critical engagement, offering concrete implications for educators, teacher educators, policymakers and community practitioners.
This book will therefore appeal to students and scholars in multilingualism, sociolinguistics, and language education, as well as teacher educators and policymakers working in multilingual and multimodal educational environments.
