The\u0000 analysis shows a range of transformations in the teachers’ perceptions and practices as well as their perceived and structural\u0000 challenges in implementing pedagogical translanguaging for content-integrated literacy instruction. The findings point towards the\u0000 complexity of pedagogical translanguaging in superdiverse classrooms and address the need for expanded empirical research on\u0000 pedagogical translanguaging.","PeriodicalId":36928,"journal":{"name":"Translation and Translanguaging in Multilingual Contexts","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43531447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
