![]() ![]() She was co-editor (with Alexandra Jaffe) of the international journal Linguistics and Education, from 2004 – 2007 and she is also editor of a book series (with Joan Pujolar) Critical Studies in Multilingualism (Routledge). She has a particular interest in multilingualism and gender and in the ways in which language and literacy practices contribute to the construction of identities in local life worlds, in institutional settings and in trans-local contexts. Her research has been primarily sociolinguistic and ethnographic in nature and has been based in different research sites: in urban and rural settings, in community contexts as well as in schools, colleges and classrooms. She has undertaken three broad types of research: (1.) research on the use of multilingual resources in face-to-face interaction (2.) research on multilingual literacy and the uses of texts in bilingual and multilingual settings (3.) ethnographic research related to the processes involved in the translation of language policies into classroom practice. She has been involved in research on bilingualism and multilingualism in different regions of Britain for thirty years. ![]() ![]() Marilyn Martin-Jones is Emeritus Professor and former Director of the MOSAIC Centre for Research on Multilingualism. ![]()
