Young children's translanguaging as emergent in and through open‐ended science pedagogies
Equity‐focused calls for elementary education reform recognize the importance of student and teacher translanguaging, yet nuances of how this process unfolds in early childhood science is an underexplored area. This study examines young plurilingual children's participation in science investigations, with a view toward understanding how open‐ended pedagogical structures supported their communication and engagement as related to science learning. …
Agentic student science engagement
Open-ended pedagogical structures create spaces for student agency. • Spaces for children's agency support learning through mimesis. • Children's mimesis is a source of creativity, allowing for learning from others. • Agency allows for repetition and imagination to come together. This manuscript presents a study exploring students' agentic engagement in science in an early-childhood classroom with a goal of examining how open-ended pedagogical st…
From founding voices to future visions
Over the past decades, languages and literacies have become a prominent focus in science education research and practice. While there is broad consensus on the central roles of disciplinary, representational, and cultural languages and their associated literacies in learning and teaching science, the field faces a critical moment. An ever-growing number of new theoretical and methodological perspectives have revealed rich facets of the multilingu…
Examining the complexities of science education in multilingual contexts
This special issue of the International Journal of Science Education, International Perspectives on Science Education in Multilingual Contexts, emerges from a symposium at the NARST 2016 conference
Underscoring the value of video analysis in multilingual and multicultural classroom contexts
This article presents multiple episodes drawing from three distinct research projects conducted in multilingual classrooms in Luxembourg, to underscore the value of video analysis in culturally and linguistically diverse classroom contexts. We show how video analysis that valorizes the non-verbal in interaction has the ability to reveal communicative resources often masked by analysis rooted in the verbal. From the examples presented, that span t…
Examining children's agency within participatory structures in primary science investigations
Globalization and Science Education
Processes of globalization have played a major role in economic and cultural change worldwide. More recently, there is a growing literature on rethinking science education research and development from the perspective of globalization. This paper provides a critical overview of the state and future development of science education research from the perspective of globalization. Two facets are given major attention. First, the further development …
