Translanguaging Strategies for Teaching Literature in a Multicultural Setting
2020
In a multicultural context like the one that can be found in Dallas (Texas), foreign language teachers must be prepared to deal with an ever-growing group of multicultural, multilingual students. This chapter discusses the work done in a university MA classroom that teaches Spanish-as-a-foreign-language school, high-school, and university instructors how to improve their teaching methods by including real literature examples in their classrooms. As the class included a particularly diverse multicultural group, the authors provide concrete examples on how to approach such a classroom. By outlining the different methodologies used by the main professor and some of the techniques employed by the students themselves, this chapter explores some of the major translanguaging strategies that can be used in a multilingual classroom.
