| Summary: | The aspect of continuity in education is very strongly challenged by the current movements of migration. Enrichment or impoverishment ? Should diversity lead to an inevitable leveling from the bottom or, on the contrary, can it play the role of educational renewal and the explosion of knowledge ? What mediating role can or should language teaching play to offset the migratory effect on the continuity of development of the child / student learning in a fossilized school system ? What about the teacher-learner ? What lessons can be learned from past experiences and in a European context ? In this article, I insist on an inclusive and contextualized view of education. I give the floor to the learners and teachers I have met to tell us about their practices, their knowledge and their beliefs about teaching. I adopt an integrated interdisciplinary approach to teaching second-, second-, and foreign languages in bilingual education. Following Hornberger, I advocate that education, research and theory become fully interrelated and mutually informed (Hornberger, 2004) in service of the mediation of languages and cultures. |
