鈥淒igital advancement has helped minoritized and Indigenous languages in reclamation and revitalization processes. It has brought together communities of mother tongue activists and created possibilities for archiving and curating oppressed languages. Nevertheless, we should not forget that minoritized populations often have little sustainable access to digital media and networks. Technology alone cannot tackle issues that require public funding and the systemic support of governmental organizations.鈥澛�

This has the power to remove barriers in multilingual learning and communication, whether it be in small or large groups, in younger and older people, during synchronous face-to-face interaction, asynchronous text comprehension, or some hybrid of the two.鈥疉t the same time, online communication privileges people who already have access to technologies and linguistic knowledge required to join the global conversation.鈥疢y research group investigates how people鈥檚 unique language and sociocultural experiences impact and are impacted by how they read and use language generally in their mother language(s) and also other languages.鈥澛�

Angelica Galante, Assistant Professor, Department of Integrated Studies in Education聽

鈥淢ultilingual education validates learners鈥� linguistic and cultural identities, creating a safe space in the classroom where they can take ownership of their own learning by accessing content in different languages, including the language of instruction. Technology is paramount for the advancement of multilingual education, especially during and post-COVID-19. In multilingual education, it is important that educators choose tools that allow learners to access and create content in different languages and not only in the language of instruction. For example, learners can access content about a topic in different languages and collaboratively create artifacts such as a digital multilingual poster, or a digital storytelling in different languages, which can be shared with members of their family and in their communities.鈥濃��鈥�聽
