“…This is the well-known reason scholars with a translanguaging-as-an issue ideology have argued. According to Palmer (2011) and Sayer (2013) , teachers’ decision-making towards translanguaging largely depends on their language ideology, which is “sets of beliefs about language articulated by users as rationalization or justification of perceived language structure and use” ( Silverstein, 1979 , p. 193). EFL teachers’ language ideologies significantly influence (often encouraging and limiting) the students’ translanguaging practices.…”

The use of translanguaging pedagogy rather than favoring English-only teaching put those who hold monolingual ideology in foreign language pedagogy. A study of English as a foreign language (EFL) for multilingual students showed that embracing translanguaging appeared compelling that it emerged in Neidi Xinjiang Classes (NXC) in China. After reviewing the concepts of translanguaging, this writing presents the translanguaging theory and translanguaging pedagogy. Guided by translanguaging lenses and stances, a longitudinal case study was carried out to look into the EFL pedagogy in NXC. The focal data was heavily drawn from reflective interviews and classroom observations. The data analyses were particularly paid on the triangulation of data with the interviews and classroom observational data. The findings indicate the students made full use of the affordances to do translanguaging practices while a few EFL teachers with the monolingual ideology still violated English-only constraints against the background of the multilingual turn. Therefore, the conclusion builds on dynamic multilingual stances to identify the significance of enabling the presence of translanguaging pedagogy.

“…In most communication, there are possibilities of misunderstanding if necessary actions are not taken to counter such before the commencement. Misunderstanding can be as a result of many factors including the mode of communication, choice of words and time, poor communication, lack of proper understanding of the audiences and their environment, the competence of the communicator including his or her command of the language plus the non-verbal ones (Sayer, 2013). In a situation, where a communicator doesn't have or have limited information about his or recipients and cannot physically see and feel them as in a complete virtual relationship misinterpretation and misunderstanding can't be a rare occurrence as affirmed by because the medium of communication during online counselling is mostly via text messages doing away with the verbal and non-verbal communication, it may sometimes result in miscommunication or misconceptions between therapist and the counselee (Frye-cox et al, 2020).…”

Daily, in almost every part of the world, series of maltreatment are meted on the children. Because of their vulnerability, the time has come to take serious actions and unreserved measures to end this inhumane treatment and support the victims and their communities. Children are innocent beings and are the last hope of every community and nation and deserve a decent and safe environment to grow to the fullest. This is a fundamental human right as capsulated in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), an international legal instrument of universal significance. A systematic review of the works of literature using information collected from different sources was actuated. Google search engine, google scholar, web of science, and Scopus database were used to search for these articles. During the search, combinations of words and phrases were used to ensure articles reflected the most current knowledge and scholarly works. The systematic searches beget varied and voluminous articles that had to be sieved not only to meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria but also to ensure the fundamental objectives of the study are wrangled. In summary, the potentials of web-counseling include but are not restricted to unlimited access and improved seeking behavior, affordability, convenience, limited pressure, permanent record availability, anonymity, independence and autonomy, empowerment, geographical barriers elimination, less feeling shy, freedom of expression, confidentiality, and privacy, efficiency and effectiveness improvement, all-time access to multiple therapists, resources with no transport cost and hassle, and client-driven therapy sessions

“…Au nombre des problèmes relevés, figurent notamment l'incapacité d'établir des relations entre les concepts présents dans les textes (Fontaine et Kodratoff, 2002), l'inhabileté à organiser les idées directrices ou encore, l'utilisation inadéquate des référents nécessaires à leur interprétation. (Mutlib Sayer, 2013) Il semble que, lors de la construction du sens, les procédés servant à recueillir des informations linguistiques, à traiter ces informations et à les mémoriser ainsi que les processus cognitifs et métacognitifs sont essentiellement identiques en Langue maternelle (L1) et en Langue étrangère (LE). En d'autres termes, les processus impliqués en compréhension en L1 et LE sont les mêmes chez les apprenants d'une langue étrangère.…”
