Focuses on one of the most current and significant topics in teacher education: the need to support increasingly diverse student populations in schools
This book details a three-year, multi-stranded study of teacher education programs that prepare future teachers to work with multilingual learners. The book examines how racism and linguicism collaborate to shape the conditions under which teacher candidates learn how to teach. The analysis traces dynamic shifts in thinking and practice as participants reflected on their personal, professional and academic experiences in relation to formal curriculum and assessment policies to interpret what it means to work with multilingual learners in the classroom. The book offers guiding principles – above all, learning from multilingual learners, not only about them – and presents a suite of teacher-education practices to disrupt the interplay of language and race that so deeply shapes teacher-candidate learning about multilingual learners.

Centering Multilingual Learners and Countering Raciolinguistic Ideologies in Teacher Education
LANGUAGE, EDUCATION AND DIVERSITY
Series Editors : Stephen May , University of Auckland, New Zealand, Teresa L. McCarty , University of California, USA , Constant Leung , King’s College London, UK and Serafín M. Coronel-Molina , Indiana University Bloomington, USA
The Language, Education and Diversity series aims to publish work at the intersections of language policy, language teaching and bilingualism/multilingualism, with a particular focus on critical, socially-just alternatives for minoritised students and communities. The series is interdisciplinary, drawing on scholarship from language policy, language education, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, linguistic anthropology and the sociology of language, including work in raciolinguistics and translingualism. We welcome a variety of methodological approaches, although critical ethnographic accounts are of particular interest.
Topics covered by the series include:
• Bilingual and Multilingual Models of Education
• Indigenous Language Education
• Multicultural Education
• Community-based Education
All books in this series are externally peer-reviewed.
Full details of all the books in this series and of all our other publications can be found on http://www.multilingual-matters.com , or by writing to Multilingual Matters, St Nicholas House, 31-34 High Street, Bristol, BS1 2AW, UK.
