  2. Theoretical understanding of bilingualism has advanced tremendously in recent decades, moving from colonialist understandings of named languages as static, separate entities to decolonializing conceptualizations of dynamic translanguaging (García, 2009)—or dynamic use of speakers’ whole linguistic repertoires to serve communicative needs. As we work to include this theoretical shift into teacher education and into instructional practice in diverse contexts, we ask what facilitates educators’ learning of new ways of seeing bilingualism and what gets in the way? This presentation examines adults’ learning experiences in a collaborative research project to use translanguaging pedagogy as a way to increase minoritized bilingual students’ access to computer science education. We —a team of teachers, administrators, teacher educators, and researchers working onthe US-Mexico border—use ethnographic data to explore how our beliefs about bilingualism and language in education surface and shift in the work. We discuss the potential of science education as a location and opportunity to advance educators’ understandings of holistic, dynamic bilingualism, and we draw connections to possibilities in science education in Paraguay.

  3. With the aim of constructing a biologically plausible model of machine listening, we study the representation of a multicomponent stationary signal by a wavelet scattering network. First, we show that renormalizing second-order nodes by their first-order parents gives a simple numerical criterion to establish whether two neighboring components will interfere psychoacoustically. Secondly, we generalize the “one or two components” framework to three sine waves or more, and show that a network of depth M = log2 N suffices to characterize the relative amplitudes of the first N terms in a Fourier series, while enjoying properties of invariance to frequency transposition and component-wise phase shifts.
