Inclusion, Education and Translanguaging
Julie A. Panagiotopoulou, Lisa Rosen, and Jenna Strzykala Eds. · LibreTexts

This was a special event for us because we had by then been dealing with the concept for years and were constantly confronted with the standard question of how translanguaging can be put into practice in the context of teacher education, congresses and conferences.
