Description

This study explores the implementation of translanguaging pedagogies to enhance students’ critical awareness in content and language integrated learning (CLIL) lessons. Translanguaging pedagogies were adopted to facilitate students’ understanding, provide language support, create a safe space for dialogue, and promote language use without fear of mistakes. This presentation demonstrates how such an approach enhances students’ social awareness and responsibility as citizens in society and offers pedagogical implications for bilingual education in EFL contexts.
