The Podcast that talks about talking

In this episode, which is part of a series on all things bilingual, Dr. Genesee and I talk about dual language learners, language use in schools, and the impact of the majority language on minority language acquisition in both minority language schools (ex. French language schools) and immersion programs. Dr. Genesee gives very useful strategies that can be used by educators who are interested in exploring a bilingual or a crosslinguistic approach in a meaningful way. We talk about how we can support the use of the children’s linguistic resources in order to help them acquire and maintain the minority language. We also talk about the importance of establishing clear goals when using crosslinguistic or translanguaging approaches as well as the parents’ role in their child’s acquisition of a minority language, be it their home language or the school language.

S4 Ep. 1: Sustainable Pedagogical Translanguaging in a Minority Context with Dr. Jasone Cenoz

When I started this podcast back in 2019, I wasn’t entirely sure how it would unfold. I am thrilled with the outcome, with over 15 000 downloads, 46 episodes and guests from all over the world. Today I am releasing Season 4 with an episode on one of my favorite topics: bilingualism and multilingualism with Dr. Jasone Cenoz. Dr. Cenoz is a professor of education at the University of the Basque Country. Her research focuses on bilingualism and multilingualism in education and on pedagogical translanguaging.
 
Pedagogical translanguaging is “a theoretical and instructional approach that aims at improving language and content competences in school contexts by using resources from the learner's whole linguistic repertoire. Pedagogical translanguaging is learner-centred and endorses the support and development of all the languages used by learners. It fosters the development of metalinguistic awareness by softening of boundaries between languages when learning languages and content.” (Cenoz and Gorter, 2021).
 
Here are links to some of the resources discussed during the episode.
Cenoz and Gorter (2017): Minority Languages and Sustainable Translanguaging: Threat or Opportunity.
In this article, Dr. Cenoz and Dr. Gorter provide the following 5 guiding principles for sustainable translanguaging for regional minority languages:
1. Design functional breathing spaces for using the minority language
2. Develop the need to use the minority languages through translanguaging
3. Use emergent multilinguals’resources to reinforce all languages by developing metalinguistic awareness
4. Enhance language awareness
5. Link spontaneous translanguaging to pedagogical activities

Another fabulous resource gives a thorough explanation of pedagogical translanguaging, metalinguistic awareness, minority languages and much more.
Cenoz and Gorter (2021): Pedagogical Translanguaging
Watch the video abstract here: https://vimeo.com/623281123
 
Finally, this is a fantastic video that further explains pedagogical translanguaging called:
Let’s make the most of multilingualism

En français, vous pouvez trouvez un bref article qui porte sur le translangage en contexte minoritaire comme on le vit au Canada hors Québec sur le site de La Conversation.
(translation:  For the French listeners, you can find a short article on translanguaging in a minority context as experienced in Canada outside Quebec on the La Conversation website.)

S1 Ep. 18 Working memory and language with Dr. Lisa Archibald

Join me for this episode as I talk to Dr. Lisa Archibald, a speech and language pathologist and university professor/researcher at Western University in London, Ontario. Lisa talks about the importance of work memory for everyday tasks at home and at school as well as how it might be difficult to differentiate a working memory disorder from a language disorder. Lisa discusses some strategies that parents, speech-language pathologists and teachers may want to use with children in order to help them with their memory. She talks about how some tasks may put a high demand on a child's working memory or cognitive load and how that same task might be easy for another child.
You can find out more about Lisa's Language and Working Memory lab by visiting her website. Lisa was also a guest speaker on TVO Parents. You can watch the short video clip here:
Lisa talks about important teacher accommodations that might be part of a student's Individual Education Plan (IEP) such as the use of visual cues, written cards or reminders, pre-teaching vocabulary, salience, etc.

Some of Lisa's favorite resources on this topic are available here:
#WesternDLD2 projects: https://www.uwo.ca/fhs/lwm/teaching/dld2.html
in particular this YouTube video provides great information on Working memory.
The Collaborative Classroom is also a great website.
​

This thesis has a lot of very useful information for teachers and educational professionals: "How do teachers teach students with working memory impairments in the regular classroom? A grounded theory approach"

As well as the following DLDandMe blog and the article: Working memory and language learning: A review, both authored by Lisa.
