By reconceptualizing the nature of adolescent multilingual writing, the author establishes it as an interdisciplinary genre and a key area of inquiry for research and pedagogy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrganized into six chapters, \u003ci\u003eReconceptualizing the Writing Practices of Multilingual Youth \u003c\/i\u003eprovides an in-depth examination of the writing practices of multilingual youth from sociocultural and social practice perspectives. Drawing on first-hand research conducted with young people, the text questions the traditional dichotomy between academic writing and non-formal equivalents and proposes a symbiotic approach to exploring and cultivating the connections between in- and out-of-school literate lives.
