This book presents case studies of five schools engaged in radical
change in order to engage with children's home languages and cultures in
a more multilingual and inclusive way. Located around the globe, from
Hawaii to Kenya, the case studies are informed by both researchers and
professionals on the ground. While the schools in question are each
anchored in a unique context and situation, they also have a common
mission to see language diversity as a resource, and a responsibility to
embrace all the languages of their pupils. The authors offer a rich
resource for education professionals and policymakers, including not
only theoretical insights but useful practical tips. This innovative
volume will be a helpful resource for educational professionals
interested in following a path of multilingualism as well as students
and scholars of second language acquisition, heritage languages and
cultures and multilingual educational policy.
