From translanguaging to transknowledging: Exploring new epistemological and linguistic approaches in higher education research

Andrews, Jane; Fay, Richard; Min Huang, Zhou; White, Ross

Abstract

In this quotation, Heugh critiques literature produced in the Global North which makes claims to promoting social justice while making invisible the sources of knowledge and languages to communicate about those ideas by people in the Global South. The inter-relationship between languages and ways of knowing is the focus of our chapter and we use it as the starting point for our exploration of new epistemological approaches to higher education research and practice. We set out some reasons why, and some suggestions for how, it is timely for linguistic diversity to be incorporated into the ongoing work of decolonising the curriculum in higher education research and practice.
