Research Cluster: Language, Mediation and Inclusion
Overview
This research cluster’s focus is to examine language as a means for mediation (translation, language learning, and teaching) to promote inclusion (empower people to become active agents of change in society). As a part of their interdisciplinary approach, the members of this cluster have developed three primary research themes on which to focus:
- Language and Human (Mind) Development
- Intercultural and Multimodal Communication
- Progressive Language Learning and Teaching
