Prof Lin, Angel Mei Yi

Professor Angel Lin serves on the editorial boards of international research journals including International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, Language Policy, Language and Education, Language, Culture and Curriculum. Her research and development of the Multimodalities-Entextualization Cycle (MEC) serves as a critical pragmatic heuristic for educators and researchers to navigate and disrupt the often monoglossic institutional spaces by both valuing and enabling translingual, multimodal, and multisensory meaning making actions with implications for equity, diversity and inclusion in education.  She is the current Chair of the American Educational Research Association’s Special Interest Group (SIG), Semiotics in Education, and has been a part of the SIG’s executive board since 2020. She started the TL-TS Research Channel on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@tl-tsresearchgroup6716/streams) in 2019 and has organized over 30 research seminars featuring both seasoned and emergent scholars in applied linguistics and education from all over the world.
