Biography
Martha Bigelow is Professor of Second Language Education at the University of Minnesota, USA. Her work focuses on the policies, politics, research ethics, and schooling practices of refugee- and immigrant-background English learners in secondary contexts. She is a veteran language teacher educator and expert in language curriculum design that blends proficiency, culture, and social justice goals.
Johanna Ennser-Kananen is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland. Her research focuses on intersectional linguistic legitimacy, anti-oppressive education, and culturally and linguistically sustaining teacher education.
"One of the major strengths of the volume is that it contributes to the field of educational linguistics in two ways: (1) by expanding the community of scholars with voices from different geographic regions of the world, as well as with the voices of emerging scholars, representing diverse methodological approaches, and (2) by explicitly focusing on advocacy and offering useful examples. The authors in the handbook provide an excellent comprehensive overview of the field by showing that research in educational linguistics can produce knowledge that can give agency to educators, students, families, and thus create streams of resistance and action that can effect change in arenas where education and language intersect.
This handbook is an essential volume for any student or researcher interested in the issues surrounding language and education in multicultural settings, and it will definitely inspire thinking, theorizing, and action among new and established researchers."

"This is educational linguistics for the twenty-first century! Bigelow and Ennser-Kananen have brought together a team of contributors whose work spans the globe and an impressive array of approaches to the social, political, psychological, and ethical issues that intersect in contemporary language teaching and learning. Not only is the volume a thorough state of the art, it also charts a course for the future of educational linguistics by posing new questions about core topics and how theory-practice relationships can be transformed into advocacy. Every language (in) education researcher needs to own this book."
