Click Here to View Agenda
Translanguaging is a frame for exploring the language processes of bilingual people that challenges the monolingual assumptions that permeate education policy. It treats bilingual rather than monolingual discourse as the norm.

The keynote speaker for this event is Dr. Ofelia García, Professor of Urban Education and Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian Literatures and Languages at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.  García has an extensive publication record on bilingualism and the education of bilinguals.

Over the course of its 34 years, this Conference has been highly recognized as one of the most stimulating language education forums in the U.S. This success stems from its commitment to exploring the best ways of meeting the educational needs of language-minority students. The Conference continues to offer access to in-depth, applied research, and up-to-date pedagogical techniques. Topics and thought-provoking plenary sessions sharpen the language professional’s mind for pedagogical insight.
