This book presents the methodological framework of combining  Multimodal Conversation Analysis (MCA) with Interpretative  Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to interpretively analyse translan￾guaging practices in educational contexts. Beginning with an overview of the three uses of translanguaging— translanguaging as a theory of language, as a pedagogical practice,  and as an analytical perspective—the book goes on to critically exam￾ine the different methodological approaches for analysing translan￾guaging practices in multilingual classroom interactions. It explains  how MCA and IPA are useful methodologies for understanding how  and why translanguaging practices are constructed by participants in  the classroom and discusses types of data collected and data collection  procedures. The author, Kevin W. H. Tai, shows how combining these  approaches enables researchers to study how translanguaging prac￾tices are constructed in multilingual classrooms and how teachers  make sense of their own translanguaging practices at particular  moments of classroom interaction. This detailed and concise guide is indispensable for students, practi￾tioners, policymakers, and researchers from across the globe, particu￾larly those working in the fields of applied linguistics and language  education.
