| Concurrent Sessions Program here When: Saturday, October 18, 2025 Get ready for an inspiring lineup of sessions where the focus is on biliteracy, multilingualism, and student voice. Educators will explore, among other themes, how translanguaging, culturally sustaining pedagogy, and inclusive curriculum design can transform the language classroom into a space of belonging and academic growth. With practical tools, current research, and classroom-tested strategies, these sessions will empower participants to plan instruction that celebrates linguistic diversity and affirms the identities of all learners in the 21st century. And the keynote with Dr. José Medina promises to draw a full house by the time the doors open - so get your tickets in advance! And each entrance includes a Raffle ticket - don't miss your chance to win some amazing prizes! Keynote title: Linguistic Liberation for All. Linguistic oppression is a reality for all culturally and linguistically diverse student communities in the United States. As educators, often without realizing it, we may align with language ideologies that further perpetuate that oppression. Participants in this session will have an opportunity to reflect on current practices, while also interacting with biliteracy instructional practices that move us closer towards linguistic liberation for all. Register to attend RIFLA/RITELL 2025 Fall Conference today - spaces are limited! Concurrent Sessions Program here
