Quote by Andrea B. Hellman, Professor of TESOL-Linguistics, Missouri State University:
"In this timely and vital new edition, Ernst-Slavit and Gottlieb reconfigure academic language for an era defined by artificial intelligence, heightened student stress, and the embrace of asset-based approaches, such as translanguaging pedagogy. The book is packed with essential updates for today's classrooms, including:
• Rich strategies for digital literacy and multimodal learning,
• Creative approaches to movement, visual arts, and hands-on learning,
• Practical ways to build student voice and agency, and
• Clear connections between social-emotional learning and academic success.
Few scholars have impacted multilingual education as profoundly as Ernst-Slavit and Gottlieb. The authors provide both the research foundation teachers need to understand why these approaches work and the practical tools to implement them successfully. Through carefully scaffolded instruction and meaningful engagement with content, multilingual learners can thrive with rigorous academic work from their first day in the classroom."
