I just noticed that my work has reached 100 citations on Google Scholar. A small number in the bigger picture of #Research , but it still feels special.
Shoutout to everyone who’s read my work and to the brilliant scholars I’ve had the chance to collaborate with!🙏

Last week, I joined @CambPressAssess as a Senior Impact Evaluator! 🎉

I'll be investigating the impact of English teaching/learning/assessment products, services & reforms on a wide range of stakeholders.

A new chapter begins!

Feedback from a participant😍: "I am so happy to have been a part of this. I especially agree with the conclusion that a shift from focusing on what teachers "lack" to focusing on what we achieve in language teaching is very welcome, and more helpful!" https://t.co/wB8BU7rcUa

[Åsta Haukås @asta_haukas]

What a JOY to see this study published, with @ThereseTishakov!😍 By observing and interviewing six language teachers, we identified nine different spaces where they highlighted multilingualism in their teaching. We hope this study can be useful for many!

Add to the list of depressingly short-sighted UK higher education decisions: Cardiff University's plans to axe 400 jobs and close courses in modern languages, music, and nursing, among others. Hen dro! Sign the petition against the cuts here: https://t.co/ZZdaoeHy4o

Our paper "Developing pre-service teachers' multilingual identities during teacher education" has just found its forever home in Vol. 53(1) of The Language Learning Journal.
Thanks to the almost 2500 (!!!) who read it!

On #EducationDay read about our project ‘Progression in Primary Languages’ led by @R_E_Kasprowicz @UniRdg_IoE. Initial results show children’s attitudes towards language learning are positive but motivation is decreasing over time, particularly in Year 6

Thanks to Zichen Guan and Lawrence Jun Zhang for first review of our book on Q and language research!

Exciting to read that the book "is ground-breaking, [...] adds to the valuable resources on Q methodology, and it is indeed a milestone in language and education research". 🏆

[Multilingual Matters @Multi_Ling_Mat]

"At last, a collection of top-tier chapters showcasing the influential role of Q methodology in deepening our understanding of language learning, teaching, and policy." https://t.co/37MissVIMQ
