New book for Dr. Mady

Congratulations to Dr. Callie Mady, who has just published a new book, Minority Populations in Canadian Second Language Education, with co-editor Katy Arnett.Here’s a summary of the book: Until now, the picture painted of French second language learning in Canada has tended to focus on successful French immersion. This volume offers a broader representation, in response to the demographic changes that have made the French language classroom a more complex place. Focusing on inclusion and language maintenance, the chapters discuss how a multilingual population can add the two official languages to their repertoire whilst maintaining their languages of origin/heritage; how the revitalization of Indigenous languages can best be supported in the language classroom, and how students with disabilities can be helped to successfully learn languages.
