Participatory research to recognize the invisible repertoires in the classroom
The school and classrooms are strategic spaces of action in which multilingual scenarios, brought about by social processes such as immigration, result in what Vertovek (2007) calls superdiversity. Along these lines, research carried out in recent decades has shown the need to introduce local varieties and heritage languages ​​into the educational curriculum to promote social inclusion. In this conference we will outline resources that integrate communication technology, educational technology and participatory technology within a framework of participatory research in which teachers and other participants worked together to create the resources (Prego & Zas, 2018). The framework was developed in the EquilinGalicia project (PID2019-105676RB-C44/AEI/10.13039/501100011033). The talk aims describe the invisible linguistic repertoires in the classroom can be identified and turned into learning resources through metalinguistic reflection and collaborative work between researcher, teachers and pupils.
