Summary
Linguistic diversity is often considered a burden or even a threat instead of a resource for learning and teaching. Where a multilingual paradigm is established or emerging, there is a tendency to privilege multilingual models based on parallel monolingualisms targeting dominant, prestige or regional languages. Because of that, there is a risk for reinforcing negative stereotypes against ethnic minorities and immigrants. That is why insight in multilingual pedagogies concerns all teachers, not merely the ones teaching languages.
