This volume focuses on multidisciplinary approaches to multilingualism, multiculturalism and language teaching and learning at (pre)primary, secondary and tertiary levels. It addresses both top-down and bottom-up perspectives on language education policies, teacher training and preparation. The book explores the needs and challenges related to education in multilingual classrooms, the relationship between parents and educators, and linguistic and cultural diversity in classrooms. It draws on the findings of research that has been conducted worldwide including in Cyprus, USA, UK, Scotland, Spain, France, Sri Lanka, Slovenia, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Sweden, Greece, and Italy. This book is ideal for students of (applied) linguistics, (socio)linguistics, psycholinguistics, language acquisition and education, as well as practitioners, teachers, parents, experts and researchers wishing to update their knowledge regarding multilingualism, multiculturalism, language learning, and teaching.
