Annotation

The article represents an analysis of recent publications in the English-language scientific periodical press, detailing the application of translanguaging as a pedagogical method or tool, particularly in school and university classes when studying languages or specialized subjects in a foreign language (content-language integrated learning, CLIL). The relevance of the study is due to the novelty of the theoretical concept of translanguaging, which is currently being actively developed by global scholars and practitioners. The article aims at revealing the essence of translanguaging as a pedagogical method, as well as representing the existing and promising methodological developments in this area. The leading methods in the study were analysis, synthesis, comparison. The empirical data comprised 76 publications in peer-reviewed English-language scientific periodicals, counting those included in international scientific databases and citation systems. The article reveals the principal approaches of global specialists to applying translanguaging in both school and university classrooms, as well as forms of translingual work with schoolchildren and students; some pedagogical situations are noted to testify to the effectiveness of these approaches and forms. The materials presented in the article enable to conclude that although translanguaging as a set of pedagogical tools as a whole is currently at the stage of its development and improvement, the Russian educational system may welcome the developments in the field of pedagogical translanguaging to be effectively applied in teaching Russian as a foreign language, as well as in higher education environments with a language of instruction other than Russian, intended for foreign students.
