FLO Friday: The PRISM Framework as Multi-Institutional Strategy
BCcampus webinar hosted November 7, 2025

Presenters: Anita Chaudhuri, Jordan Stouck, Steve Marshall, Jing Li, Ru Yao, Jannik Eikenaar, Jennifer Walsh Marr
Host: Helena Prins

This workshop addresses the importance of linguistic citizenship, cross–lingual practices, and strategies to achieve linguistic justice. The researchers will share findings informing the development of the new PRISM (plurilingual, raciolinguistic, Indigenous, and social justice for multilingual learners) framework for advancing linguistic equity in writing classrooms.

Activities will include introducing inclusive, anti-racist writing practices, research, and theoretical positions via the PRISM framework, sharing sample practices, and building relationships to facilitate application of the framework.  

Participants will: 

• Develop foundational knowledge and match the framework to design culturally and linguistically responsive activities  
• Gain further understanding of linguistic diversity and linguistic justice possibilities in responding to student writing 
• Reflect on the research-based framework in relation to professional identities and rethinking practice
