Yes, multilingualism is an asset of an individual.
ReplyDeleteKnowledge of teachers’ beliefs is central to understanding teachers’ decision-making in the classroom. The Teachers should be multilingual themselves and serve as models for their learners. They should have a highly developed cross-linguistic and metalinguistic awareness. They should be familiar with research on multilingualism. They should know how to foster learners’ multilingualism. They should be sensitive to learners’ individual cognitive and affective differences. They should be willing to collaborate with other (language) teachers to enhance learners’ multilingualism. So, language plays a significant role in imparting a quality understanding to the learners. It is crucial in teaching learning process.

ReplyDeleteMultilingualism refers to speaking more than one language competently. Especially in a country like India where people speak a variety of languages.
ReplyDeleteA classroom that welcomes a multilingual atmosphere is more likely to produce children who understand that to be equal to someone, doesn’t mean they have to be the same as them. Multilingual instruction fosters meaningful diplomacy, by growing children’s appreciation of different cultures and meaning-making systems. They include the creation and appreciation of cultural awareness, adds academic and educational value, enhances creativity, adjustment in society and appreciation of local languages.
By learning another language, children begin to understand and master language as a system of representing meaning in the world. . As it enables better learning, ensures girls' education, is important for minority groups, and provides a basis for learning in other subjects ,
Speaking more languages enhances the brain, attention span increases , provides better job prospective
Thus it is a very good resource and strategy
It has long been recognised that one of the key characteristics of high quality teaching is the ability of the teachers to engage students’ prior understanding and experiences and background knowledge. This prior knowledge is encoded in their home language and therefore it is vital that teachers facilitate the transfer of both concepts and skills of students from students’ home languages to English. It can be used both as a strategy and a resource.
ReplyDeleteI t pays rich dividends for both the teacher and the taught to be polyglots!. The fact that the student has been able to learn wo or more languages is enough testimony to the fact that he has the requisite learning fervour and prowess to learn another eve if it be a foreign tongue like English. This is something the teacher can use to his own advantage. The foreign tongue could be taught perhaps more effectively and productively thanks to the learner being quite well-equipped with other tongues. The child too can take confidence from the fact that if he had the latent learning skills to acquire a good hold over other tongues then why not English. So I fully support this school of thought
ReplyDeleteFor our country which has vast linguistic diversity , multilingual atmosphere will help the children to express their views and understand the concepts better
ReplyDeleteBeing multilinguistic is always an advantage. It can be used as a resource and a strategy .But our country is a land of Unity in diversity. Speaking and understanding ones Mother tongue comes naturally to students. Knowing English gives International advantage .To keep connected with everything as a nation our National language is a must .
ReplyDeleteMultilingualism or to be a polyglot or master of many languages is a very creditable thing. if one knows the diverse languages of our country it will only help in knowing our country better. It will also help in knowing the world as a better place.
ReplyDeleteIf we communicate better, using multiple languages, doesn't it add more charm to our personality? Multilingualism is said to sharpen our brain, and help us work more efficiently. So let the children speak as many languages as they want and remain better equipped to face varied environments.
ReplyDeleteMultilingualism helps students to understand the culture and literature of others with more confidence.We can use it both as a resource and strategy.
ReplyDeleteIn today's changing scenario and global trend, Multilingualism can definitely be used as a resource for the advantage of our learners. In education system, use of innovative methods of expression via use of multiple languages is undoubtedly a revolutionary idea that needs to be nurtured. Promoting multilingualism in teaching-learning process will surely lay a strong foundation for children. This will in turn equip them to face the challenges of life and adapt to changing situations with much more flexibility. Multilingualism also brings variety and diverse thinking. This will also lead to the learning of foreign languages more effectively and productively.

ReplyDeleteKVS is an example of Multilingualism. Polyglots are mushrooming in India- the more languages we know, the better. When we teach in any class, the reference of various places, people following different cultures appear as characters and it becomes easy if a teacher knows how to integrate various languages while teaching to communicate. Students can connect to things around them using Multilingualism as a tool in the teaching-learning process. Learners develop interest when teachers ask them as to what they call a particular thing in their own language. NEP 2020 also focuses on this which would also not only instil harmony, peace and brotherhood in our Nation but also respect other cultures leading to holistic development of learners.
