Overview

In a world increasingly shaped by globalization, mobility, and migration, linguistic diversity is no longer a peripheral concern in education, it is central. Classrooms across the globe are becoming vibrant spaces of multilingual interaction, where students bring with them diverse linguistic and cultural repertoires. Yet educational systems often remain anchored in monolingual ideologies that fail to reflect this new reality. There is a pressing need for pedagogical, curricular, and policy shifts that acknowledge and embrace multilingualism as an educational asset rather than a challenge. Language Teaching for Bilingual and Multilingual Individuals: Pedagogical Challenges and Curriculum Development critically examines the limitations of conventional language instruction and offers actionable strategies for fostering inclusive, equitable, and linguistically responsive educational practices. This book addresses the pedagogical challenges and curriculum development needs related to the education of bilingual and multilingual individuals. Covering topics such as generative artificial intelligence, monolingual norms, and overlapping marginalization, this book is a critical academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, language educators, curriculum developers, policymakers, linguists, and more.
