Translanguaging as Transformative Pedagogy: Towards a Vision of Democratic Education

Translinguagem como pedagogia transformadora: para uma visão de educação democrática

ABSTRACT

This paper is a reflection on the use of translanguaging as pedagogy. The primary aim of the paper is to discuss transformative potentials of translanguaging in multilingual educational contexts. To frame the discussion, I turn to Jacques Rancière’s critical works, and show how translanguaging may be an effective way of teaching democratic politics in the language classroom.

KEYWORDS:
Translanguaging; pedagogy; Rancière; democratic education.
