Translingual education
“If the traditional terms are not really applicable, is there a more appropriate term? Is it possible that these learners are ‘trans-language learners’ (TLL)? Trans-language learner is a term which describes an individual who moves from a maternal/native language to competence in an additional environmental/instructional language and culture.” (p.43)
Translingual authors as “those who write in more than one language or in a language other than their primary one.” (p. ix)
By expressing themselves in multiple verbal systems, [translingual writers] flaunt their freedom from the constrains of the culture into which they happen to be born (ix). Kellman (2003)
Translingualism as a subject is certainly worthy of theorization and study… However, the definition of translingualism presented here is very broad and the collection as a whole therefore remains rather diffuse and unfocused. Problematically, Kellman never distinguishes translingualism from bilingualism, multilingualism, or ambibilingualism. (p.199)
1. Languages and literacies that develop while interacting with each other in a dynamic and fluid way
2. while moving back and forth between real
and “imagined” glocalized borders
3. and transacting with different cultural identities within a unified self. (Schwarzer, in preparation)
