How can the ELT landscape move forward with vibrancy and relevancy? How does translanguaging increase efficacy in language acquisition classrooms. How does the integration of translanguaging, wildness, beauty, and imagination increase language acquisition efficacy? The EFL landscape is changing significantly. The former paradigm assumed the separation of languages with the exclusion of mother tongues in the English language classrooms. Current research reflects the increase of language acquisition with the inclusion of students’ full linguistic repertoire in their language classes. The combination of translanguaging with wildness/authenticity, beauty/harmony, imagination/action, and AI invites student engagement and language acquisition in expanded and exciting ways. The objectives of this session include how translanguaging can be utilized to increase language acquisition; gain ideas how to implement translanguaging in their own educational context; reflect on ways to increase wildness/creativity, beauty/harmony, and imagination/action in their language classrooms for increased language acquisition and student engagement.
