Summary
This book offers insights into questions related to mobility, literacy learning and literacy practices of adult and adolescent migrants. The authors address learning and use of literacies among adults and adolescents in both temporary and more permanent post-migration settlements and in various contexts, exploring spatial as well as temporal dimensions of literacies and power. The formal and informal educational settings examined include state-mandated schools, community settings, and libraries, and the chapters offer insights into the complex relations between literacies and mobility, as well as a range of perspectives on language use and language learning. This volume will be of interest to students and researchers in fields including education and literacy, applied linguistics, language education and migration studies. Annika Norlund Shaswar is a Senior Lecturer of Language Teaching and Learning at Umea University, Sweden. Her research interests include multilingual literacy, basic literacy education in linguistically heterogeneous contexts, second language development of adults and language learning strategies. Jenny Rosen is Associate Professor in Swedish as a Second Language in the Department of Language Education at Stockholm University, Sweden. Her research interests include multilingualism, literacy and diversity in educational settings.
