Sociolinguistics and Language Education

Editat de Nancy H. Hornberger, Sandra Lee Mckay
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 iun 2010

În sfera educației lingvistice academice, volumul Sociolinguistics and Language Education reprezintă o resursă fundamentală pentru înțelegerea modului în care dinamica socială modelează procesul de predare. Notăm cu interes modul în care editorii Nancy H. Hornberger și Sandra Lee McKay reușesc să sintetizeze teme complexe — de la naționalism și cultura populară la ideologii de putere — oferind o perspectivă actualizată asupra sociolingvisticii aplicate. Structura cărții este organizată riguros pe cinci piloni esențiali: Ideologie, Societate, Variație, Alfabetizare și Identitate, facilitând o navigare facilă între teorie și practica pedagogică.

Reținem abordarea incluzivă a volumului, care analizează atât rolul limbii engleze ca lingua franca internațională, cât și inițiativele de revitalizare a limbilor indigene. Față de lucrări precum Bilingual Education sau Ecology of Language, unde Nancy H. Hornberger explora nișe specifice ale mediului educațional, acest titlu oferă o viziune de ansamblu, mult mai integrată. Profesorii care folosesc Introducing Multilingualism de Kristine Horner vor aprecia aici profunzimea analizei critice asupra conștientizării lingvistice și a identităților de gen, elemente care transformă sala de curs într-un spațiu de acceptare a repertoriilor comunicative diverse.

Metodologia propusă depășește simpla predare a gramaticii, punând accent pe alfabetizarea multimodală și pe modul în care stilul și identitatea elevilor influențează învățarea. Este o lucrare densă, de peste 500 de pagini, care funcționează ca un manual de referință pentru educatorii ce doresc să înțeleagă fluiditatea limbajului în comunitățile moderne.

De ce să citești această carte

Această carte este esențială pentru educatorii și cercetătorii care doresc să depășească metodele tradiționale de predare a limbilor străine. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a modului în care puterea, identitatea și ideologia influențează clasa de curs. Este un instrument teoretic și practic ideal pentru cei care lucrează în medii multilingve și caută să promoveze echitatea lingvistică și succesul academic al studenților prin practici pedagogice moderne.


Descriere scurtă

This book, addressed to experienced and novice language educators, provides an up-to-date overview of sociolinguistics, reflecting changes in the global situation and the continuing evolution of the field and its relevance to language education around the world. Topics covered include nationalism and popular culture, style and identity, creole languages, critical language awareness, gender and ethnicity, multimodal literacies, classroom discourse, and ideologies and power. Whether considering the role of English as an international language or innovative initiatives in Indigenous language revitalization, in every context of the world sociolinguistic perspectives highlight the fluid and flexible use of language in communities and classrooms, and the importance of teacher practices that open up spaces of awareness and acceptance of --and access to--the widest possible communicative repertoire for students.

Recenzii

The very size and richness of this volume makes it ideal for multiple shorter self-designed explorations. So each reader can enter through the Chapter of greatest interest at the moment (for me the first time, it was "Language Policy and Planning" in the Language and Society section). Then follow your own links to Language and Ideology, Variation, Literacy, Identity, and Interaction. It belongs in all our personal libraries.Courtney B. Cazden, Harvard Graduate School of Education, USATo those of us who 'came of age' with McKay and Hornberger's Sociolinguistics and Language Teaching (1995), this newly edited volume is a gift - a gift that will enable us to share our fascination with the social, cultural, and political aspects of language teaching with our student teachers, while updating our own knowledge of sociolinguistics.Yasuko Kanno, CITE, Temple University, USASociolinguistics and Language Education brings together the most authoritative voices in the field to explore the intersections of language and education in contexts around the world. At a time of unprecedented population mobility and cross-cultural contact, policy-makers and educators are searching for ways to adapt 20th century assumptions about the static nature of constructs such as language, culture, power, identity and communication to the dynamic and shifting realities of 21st century schools and communities. The editors have done a superb job in creating a resource that is comprehensive in its articulation of the complexities of social interactions in a globalized world yet simultaneously accessible, lucid, engaging, and thought-provoking.Jim Cummins, OISE, University of Toronto, Canada.What makes this book stand out is that it eloquently combines sociolinguistics with language education in the same volume... It is without a doubt that each Chapter has been written by some of the most influential figures in the field from all over the world, who have done extensive research on the topic explored...This volume makes a major contribution to our understanding of the approach to language education in relation to the complex and diverse social and linguistic contexts of today...This book is rich in material, has useful bibliographies, and is both interesting and thought provoking. It is readable without over-simplifying detailed arguments. One of the strengths of this book is the frequent and explicit reference to learners and their teachers in specific situations...The editors have done a superb job in creating a resource that is comprehensive in its articulation of the complexities of social interactions in a globalized world yet simultaneously accessible, lucid, and engaging. All in all, the book should find its place in postgraduate courses in applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, language and education, language and diversity and bilingual education. It is also a suitable Introduction to research for both teachers and novice researchers. Alexandre Dufaur, Department of Linguistics, Florida Atlantic University LINGUIST List 22.46
