The 11th volume in the TIRF-Routledge “Global Research on Teaching and Learning English” series was published earlier this month. This volume, co-edited by TIRF Trustees Dr. MaryAnn Christison and Dr. Anna Krulatz, presents research on multilingualism in educational contexts across the globe.

Chapters are written by TIRF Doctoral Dissertation Grant awardees and internationally known scholars.  The volume addresses the challenges and pedagogies associated with moving away from the monolingual paradigm to support the development of culturally and linguistically diverse learners. Offering original research, new models, and pedagogies on teaching from over 17 different countries, this volume familiarizes readers with the latest advances in theory and practice and is a key text for language education programs and pre-service teachers.
