Book excerpt: Abstract This work examines what role, if any, bilingual education has in the construction of a national identity. I explore the issue in the Autonomous Basque Community in Spain. This region provides the discussion with a well known nationalist struggle and a wide variety of academic models and experiences of bilingual education. In this environment I ask, when and how do issues of nationalism and identity enter into language education? How does policy design differ from classroom implementation and results? What is the role of parents, teacher, students or the community at large? These questions are explored using ethnographic data gathering methods, interviews, surveys, and analysis of language use across various levels of engagement with bilingual education. The analysis moves from general public opinion, to school culture and classroom ethnographies. Along the way, this research addresses politicized or toxic schools, silent resistance, and teachers whose lesson plan is co-opted and rendered as something different. The experiences of students in schools show that language education is not just one grade, one teacher and is far from being a perfectly oiled nationalist machinery. Students emerge as expert frame casters, actively analyzing the sociolinguistic environment of every classroom and tailoring their participation accordingly. Early competence in abstracting content and framing interpersonal exchanges are key to understanding how it is that, in certain schools, youth may be radicalized in spite of teachers' efforts while in other schools silenced majorities find their way through cultures in conflict to give birth to new cultural identities and political agendas.

  • ISBN : 9780521586559
  • Pages : 340 pages

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within bilingual education, more and more programs are adopting the option of immersion education, in which a second language is used as the medium of instruction. This volume illustrates the implementation immersion education in North America, Europe, Asia, the Pacific, and Africa, showing its use in programs ranging from preprimary to tertiary level and demonstrating how it can function in foreign language teaching, for teaching a minority language to members of the language majority, for reviving or supporting languages at risk of extinction, and for helping learners acquire a language needed for wider communication or career advancement. A final section reviews lessons learned from experiences with immersion and explores new directions the approach is taking. This text will be of interest to teachers, teacher educators, and others involved in bilingual education.

Book Higher Education  Language and New Nationalism in Finland

Download or read book Higher Education Language and New Nationalism in Finland written by Taina Saarinen and published by Palgrave Pivot. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses recycled discourses of language and nationalism in Finnish higher education, demonstrating the need to look beyond language in the study of language policies of higher education. It analyses the historical and political layeredness of language policies as well as the intertwined nature of national and international developments in understanding new nationalism. Finnish higher education language policies were fuelled by the dynamics and tensions between the national languages Finnish and Swedish until the 2000s, when English begins to catalyse post nationalist discourses of economy and competitiveness. In the 2010s, English begins to be seen as a threat to Finnish. Educational, economic and epistemic nationalism emerge as the main cycles of new nationalist language policies in Finnish higher education. The book will be of interest to language policy and higher education scholars and practitioners, as well as graduate students language policy and higher education.

Book Applied Linguistics and Language Teaching in the Neo Nationalist Era

Download or read book Applied Linguistics and Language Teaching in the Neo Nationalist Era written by Kyle McIntosh and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-08 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how resurgent nationalism across the globe demands re-examination of many of the theories and practices in applied linguistics and language teaching as political forces seek to limit the movement of people, goods, and services across national borders and, in some cases, enact violence upon those with linguistic and/or ethnic backgrounds that differ from that of the dominant culture. The authors who have contributed to this volume provide careful analysis of nationalist discourses and actions in Brazil, Cameroon, Canada, China, Colombia, Germany, Poland, the United Arab Emirates, the United States, and Vietnam. They offer their unique historical and cultural perspectives on the complex relationship between language, identity, and nationhood in each of these countries, as well as practical responses to the fraught political situations that many language educators and policy makers now face.This book will appeal to researchers in applied linguistics and language teaching, as well as second and foreign language teaching professionals working and living in countries where nationalist sentiments are on the rise.

Book Language Diversity in the Classroom

Download or read book Language Diversity in the Classroom written by Geneva Smitherman and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2003-11-05 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s no secret that, in most American classrooms, students are expected to master standardized American English and the conventions of Edited American English if they wish to succeed. Language Diversity in the Classroom: From Intention to Practice works to realign these conceptions through a series of provocative yet evenhanded essays that explore the ways we have enacted and continue to enact our beliefs in the integrity of the many languages and Englishes that arise both in the classroom and in professional communities. Edited by Geneva Smitherman and Victor Villanueva, the collection was motivated by a survey project on language awareness commissioned by the National Council of Teachers of English and the Conference on College Composition and Communication. All actively involved in supporting diversity in education, the contributors address the major issues inherent in linguistically diverse classrooms: language and racism, language and nationalism, and the challenges in teaching writing while respecting and celebrating students’ own languages. Offering historical and pedagogical perspectives on language awareness and language diversity, the essays reveal the nationalism implicit in the concept of a “standard English,” advocate alternative training and teaching practices for instructors at all levels, and promote the respect and importance of the country’s diverse dialects, languages, and literatures. Contributors include Geneva Smitherman, Victor Villanueva, Elaine Richardson, Victoria Cliett, Arnetha F. Ball, Rashidah Jammi` Muhammad, Kim Brian Lovejoy, Gail Y. Okawa, Jan Swearingen, and Dave Pruett. The volume also includes a foreword by Suresh Canagarajah and a substantial bibliography of resources about bilingualism and language diversity.
