Raciolinguistics and Identity Conversations Using Multiracial Children's Literature

This lecture intended for English language educators and researchers will examine the role of multicultural and multilingual children's literature for critical literacy development in diverse contexts.

Gambrinus Fellow Professor Kevin Wong 黃浩文博士 is an assistant professor and chair of the MA in TESOL program at Pepperdine University. Dr. Wong's research is informed by his biracial, trilingual upbringing in Hong Kong where he was a public elementary/primary school teacher. Now at Pepperdine, he directs the Multilingual, Multiracial, Multicultural Education Research Group, examining raciolinguistic ideologies and identity among students (with a particular interest in multiracial individuals), language learning in ESL/EFL, dual language immersion, digital contexts, and humanizing pedagogies and methodologies in applied linguistics research.

This lecture is open to the public. For further information please contact carolyn.blume@tu-dortmund.de
