Linguistically responsive pedagogies in undergraduate biology education: A systematic review and implications for English-medium instruction in Zambian universities

It is confirmed that linguistically responsive pedagogies offer a viable, evidence-based pathway for improving biology education in Zambia's English-medium universities and that strategies such as translanguaging, bilingual instruction, culturally responsive teaching, scaffolded support, narrative pedagogy, and technology-enhanced learning boost student engagement, conceptual understanding, academic performance, and identity affirmation.
