_tChapter 9. Conclusion -- 9.1 Developing multilingual competencies in complex contexts -- 9.2 Pedagogical implications and outlook
520 _a"This book presents a new extended framework for the study of early multicompetence. It proposes a concept of multilingual competences as a valuable educational target, and a view of the multilingual learner as a competent language user. The thematic focus is on multilingual skill development in primary schoolers in the trilingual province of South Tyrol, northern Italy. A wide range of topics pertaining to multicompetence building and the special affordances of multilingual pedagogy are explored. Key concepts like language proficiency, native-speakerism, or monolingual classroom bias are subjected to critical analysis."
520 _a« Ce livre présente un nouveau cadre étendu pour l’étude de la multicompétence précoce. Il propose un concept de compétences multilingues en tant qu'un objectif éducatif de valeur ainsi que une vision de l’apprenant multilingue en tant qu’utilisateur de langue compétent. L’accent est mis sur le développement des compétences multilingues dans les écoles primaires de la province trilingue du Tyrol du Sud, dans le nord de l’Italie. Un large éventail de sujets relatifs à la construction de compétences multiples et aux spécificités de la pédagogie multilingue sont explorés. Les concepts clés comme la maîtrise de la langue, celui du locuteur natif ou du parti-pris du monolinguisme dans la salle de classe sont soumis à une analyse critique. »
