DESCRIPTION:\n\nLocation: Room 233\, Education building\, 3700 McTavish\n\n
 Anna Slotte\, University of Helsinki\n\n'Multilingual practices and learni
 ng in and outside school – some examples from Finland'\n\n'In Finland\, th
 ere are parallel school systems for Finnish-medium and Swedish-medium scho
 ols at all educational levels. As a consequence of the growing number of m
 ultilingual students in Swedish-medium schools (mostly multilingual speake
 rs of Finnish and Swedish)\, there is a need for constant focus on languag
 e in all subjects.  In these multilingual settings\, the development of ac
 ademic language and disciplinary literacy are therefore crucial to student
 s’ success\, and teachers must balance the need to emphasize the language 
 of instruction (Swedish) with confirmation and support for other languages
  – especially the majority language Finnish. I have conducted school ethno
 graphic video research\, mostly in upper secondary schools\, but also at o
 ther school levels\, with a focus on language across the curriculum.\n\n'F
 or their extracurricular activities\, children typically join either Finni
 sh- or Swedish-medium groups that uphold the monolingual norm from the sch
 ool. But there are also multilingual groups where the leaders use two or t
 hree languages as parallel language use\, responsible code-switching or as
  translanguaging. ln my research projects\, I have video recorded interact
 ions between children and between children and leaders in two different co
 ntexts: at soccer practice and at a nature-based summer camp. During these
  activities\, children from Swedish- and Finnish-medium schools meet. When
  analyzing these kind of multilingual learning practices\, an essential qu
 estion for me is\, “In what way can we understand content and language lea
 rning in relation to multilingual practices?”.\n\n'In my talk\, video data
  from both classroom interaction as well as from children’s extracurricula
 r activities will be discussed. \n\n'I am an Associate Professor and Unive
 rsity lecturer at the Swedish medium teacher education at the University o
 f Helsinki\, Finland. My primary fields of research are multilingualism\, 
 school/video ethnography and (digital) literacy. I am especially intereste
 d in language across the curriculum and how multilingualism is related to 
 learning and identity in children’s and youths’ everyday life\, in and out
 side school. I am a member of the Nordic Excellence Centre “Justice throug
 h Education” (justed.org). I have been assigned to work with the core curr
 iculum for basic education at the National Board of Education. Since March
  2016\, I am the President of NERA\, Nordic Educational Research Associati
 on.'\n\n-Anna Slotte\n
