• Beatrice DuPuy

  Beatrice Dupuy (Ph.D., University of Southern California) is Professor in the Departments of French and Italian and Public and Applied Humanities, Chair of the graduate interdisciplinary program in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching (SLAT), and Co-Director of the Center for Resources in Culture, Language and Literacy (CERCLL) at the University of Arizona. Her research interests include text-anchored instructional approaches and teacher professional learning both informed by the multiliteracies framework.

• Kristen Michelson

  Kristen Michelson (Ph.D., University of Arizona) is Assistant Professor of French and Applied Linguistics in the Department of Classical and Modern Languages and Literatures at Texas Tech University, and director of the first and second year French program. Her research is anchored in intersections between human experience and cultural texts, with a particular focus on pedagogical and technological innovations in foreign language teaching and learning that call explicit attention to affect, identities, and ideological discourses. Recent research focuses on the integration of multiliteracies pedagogies in foreign language curricula and collaborative meaning-making through digital social annotated reading.

• This volume seeks to understand the reasons there has not been a large-scale paradigm change to teach language and culture as integrated and situated practices.

• This volume provides all those with responsibility for language program direction and instruction with insights around the struggles that come with paradigm change in many collegiate language programs.

• The contributions in this volume should awaken the field to the urgency of reasserting the relevance of second language (L2) education in individual learning endeavors and institutional practices, and should lead to the large-scale paradigm change that so many have called for before, ultimately making foreign language instruction an interdisciplinary humanistic enterprise.
