Beatrice C Dupuy

Biography

Dr. Dupuy's research focuses on language teacher professional development, literacy-based approaches to teaching and learning, multimodality, digital social annotated reading, and on experiential learning as a theoretical and practical framework for language education in home and study-abroad contexts. She has authored and co-authored numerous articles and book chapters. Her book-length projects include A Multiliteracies Framework for Collegiate Foreign Language Teaching (Pearson Higher Education, US, 2015) co-authored with Heather Willis Allen (University of Wisconsin, Madison) and Kate Paesani (University of Minnesota, Twin Cities), which developed from a previous CERCLL project (PErCOLATE) and outlines a coherent pedagogical framework grounded in texts and the concept of literacy for college foreign language programs; Pathways to Paradigm Change: A Critical Examination of Prevailing Discourses and Ideologies in Foreign Language Education (Cengage, US, 2019) co-edited with Kristen Michelson (Texas Tech University) which focuses on how ideologies and discourses currently prevailing in foreign language education are barriers to paradigm change and innovation; Language Learning and Professionalization in Higher Education: Pathways to Preparing Learners and Teachers in/for the 21st Century (Research Publishing, France, 2020) co-edited with Muriel Grosbois (Cnam, Paris, France) explores language learning and professionalization by addressing the gap between pressing needs for enhanced soft skills in work environments wherein technology-mediated, multilingual communication is increasingly the norm and current foreign language learning offerings in higher education. She and Chantelle Warner (University of Arizona) guest edited a special issue of Intercultural Communication Education titled Intercultural Communicative Competence and Mobility: Perspectives on Virtual, Physical, and Critical Dimensions (Castledown Publishers, Australia) which appeared in 2021. They also contributed a chapter entitled Literacy/Multiliteracies and Foreign Language Education which was published in 2023 in International Encyclopedia of Education, co-edited by R.J. Tierney, Rivzi, F., & F. Erkikan. She is currently co-editing Routledge Handbook of Language Program Development and Administration with Alan Brown (University of Kentucky), Corinne Crane (University of Alabama), and Estela Ene (Indiana University, Indianapolis) which will be published in Fall 2024. Beatrice Dupuy teaches seminars in FL methods, FL/L2 literacy, language learning in study abroad contexts, and language program direction.
