cordially invites you to a talk (part of their Waves of Influence Lecture Series):
Translanguaging Waves: Seeing and Hearing Differently
Ofelia García
Professor Emerita, The Graduate Center, City University of New York
This presentation introduces translanguaging by focusing on three different bilingual Latinx students, as they engage in different networks to communicate their messages, and as they learn. In so doing, we are challenged to let go of the notion of (and the teaching of) a named language and of additive bilingualism.
Date: Monday, March 2 | 4PM
Location: Berkeley Way West Atrium
A light reception will follow the talk and Q&A.
