Profile 【 Display / hide 】

  • In my research, I go back and forth between the Andean Societies of Abya Yala (Latin America) and Yaun mosir (Hokkaido) to follow the contemporary lived dynamics of the indigenous languages (Aymara, Quechua, and Aynu), and also to delve into the rich and complex world of their oral literature. My other research themes include how the indigenous peoples of Qullasuyu (Bolivia) and Peru resisted and adapted to the political and development processes, as well as how written literature has interacted with and responded to the oral literature in these societies. We organize with students study groups on Quechua and Euskera(Basque) language at SFC, and I collaborate in a citizen college with a course on reading the Huarochiri Manuscript, a Quechua registry of myths and practices dating from the Spanish colonial period.

    　View Summary

    This paper draws on the experience of conducting a multilingual graduate research seminar at the
    Keio University at Shonan-Fujisawa (Japan), and attempts to answer positively to the question
    raised by Kubota (2022) whether critical engagement in applied linguistics is leading to social
    progress. In the graduate seminar (Academic Project “Multilingual and Multicultural Societies”)
    student participants have a variety of backgrounds (Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea, Greece,
    Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Ukraine, Australia, etc.). The imperative to offer education in both
    Japanese and English led the presenters to establish a bilingual seminar management policy, while
    also encouraging the use of other languages. In an academic environment where performance
    requirements loom large, can translanguaging lead to meaningful change in communicational
    practice (cf. Kubota 2022)? How do the participants experience and perceive the experience?

    In an attempt to achieve more than a mere coexistence of different languages in the seminar, we
    have been exploring the idea of translanguaging and creating a translanguaging space to promote
    fluid and effective communication among the participants (García and Li 2014, Li 2011). This study
    draws on an action-research project started in fall 2021 that inquires the perspectives and
    experiences of the participants, through individual interviews and participatory reflective workshops
    at the end of each semester.

    Through qualitative analysis of transcribed interviews and researchers’ field notes, we have been
    able to confirm that both students and faculty have felt encouraged to attempt a more flexible and
    dynamic practices of languaging, where the dividing line between English and Japanese becomes
    less clear and neither becomes dominant. Moreover, other languages such as Russian, Chinese, and
    Spanish have been actively employed to make communication more fluid and also to experiment
    Spanish have been actively employed to make communication more fluid and also to experiment
    with other modes of communication. These findings would contribute to the emergent studies on
    translanguaging in higher education (Mazack and Carroll 2016).
