Introduction:
This handbook is designed to support language educators in enhancing plurilingual education at the university level. It is based on the data of the research project MultiVid: Multilingual video use for plurilingual education at the university level, conducted by researcher Liudmila Shafirova under the supervision of Professor Helena Araújo e Sá at the University of Aveiro, Portugal.
The MultiVid project focuses on understanding how students engage with videos in multiple languages outside the classroom and aims to bridge this informal learning to the language classroom. Taking a plurilingual perspective, the project investigates the various languages and linguistic varieties that students encounter while watching videos, rather than focusing solely on a specific target language.
This handbook aims to support language educators (focus on adult/young adult education) in leveraging the insights and methodologies from the MultiVid project to enhance plurilingual language practices in the classroom. It provides a structured framework, practical strategies, and a range of activities that foster plurilingual awareness and social media awareness through video practices. By integrating informal learning experiences into formal language instruction, we aim to create a more enriching language learning environment for the students
