Hamza R'boul; Hassan Belhiah; Anissa Elhaffari – Language and Education, 2024
The mainstream colonial lenses that have been used to understand multilingualism in the peripheries may not account for the realities of Southern multilingualisms. This article takes up these epistemic challenges in navigating EMI through alternative lenses, aiming to complexify the discussion of EMI among young individuals who are engaged in…

Daniel Fung; Edsoulla Chung – Language and Education, 2024
Despite the rapid growth of English Medium Instruction (EMI) programmes around the globe, the language goals in such programmes have not been clearly defined, making it difficult to evaluate their success. Accordingly, our paper reports on a study that attempted to identify the language goals, operationalised as the vocabulary expected of…

Granados, Adrián; Lorenzo-Espejo, Antonio; Lorenzo, Francisco – Language and Education, 2023
This study describes academic literacy development during mid-adolescence, when learners need to adjust to the demands of academic discourse as a gateway to linguistic adulthood. Unlike most research to date, which is cross-sectional and detached from disciplinary content, this study provides a two-year longitudinal description of academic…

Metz, Mike – Language and Education, 2023
This study examines teaching about grammar and language use in secondary schools through a narrative lens.

Findings show teachers with vastly different life experiences…

Repo, Elisa – Language and Education, 2023
Curricular reform requires Finnish schools to be language aware and promote instruction that builds on students' linguistic resources. However, knowledge about students' experiences related thereto remains scarce. To create understanding about linguistic integration in increasingly multilingual schools, this study quantitatively explores the…

Allard, Elaine C.; Schlaker, Ruby V.; Phillips Mergott, Katherine – Language and Education, 2023
Incorporating students' home languages into the classroom is one powerful way to welcome and show immigrant students care. But what if teachers can't speak these languages? Sharing findings from a collaborative educational ethnography in a large urban ESL program in the U.S., this article offers a framework that new and practicing teachers can use…

Morek, Miriam; Heller, Vivien; Kinalzik, Noelle – Language and Education, 2023
Cold-calling has been proposed as an effective engagement strategy to enhance student participation in whole-class discussions. However, calling on students who did not volunteer can also be understood as a face-threat. The ways in which teachers accomplish cold-calling could prove critical as to how cold-calling is received. The linguistic,…

We analyze eight letters of recommendation written by high school teachers for first-generation college students, so as to illustrate narrative strategies that can make letters more effective in providing support for students' college applications. Amidst recent criticisms of the limited utility of letters in college admissions, we argue that they…

Scarino, Angela – Language and Education, 2022
The increasing diversity of learners and teachers of languages (of both English as an Additional Language or Dialect [EAL/D] and Languages) coincides with major efforts to reconceptualise the nature of additional language learning towards multilingual and intercultural orientations. In this paper I first describe the policy context of EAL/D in…

Fenwick, Lisl; Herrington, Michele – Language and Education, 2022
Research from the fields of science representation, genre pedagogy and disciplinary literacy for adolescents indicates that achievement for students, including those from linguistically diverse backgrounds, will improve if they engage with the meaning-making conventions of disciplinary texts, but there is no current agreement on the nature of…

Kelly, Ronan; Hou, Heng – Language and Education, 2022
The use of machine translation is increasingly prevalent in language education and social communication. This study explored how multilingual pupils who are learning English as an additional language (EAL) use machine translation within their formal education and everyday lives. A translanguaging framework was employed to understand the ways in…

Chandras, Jessica – Language and Education, 2022
In classrooms in India where the instructional language is to be English, speakers use reported speech in Indian regional languages for pedagogical purposes, renegotiating the roles and statuses among languages in the multilingual setting. Reported speech is a form of indirect speech used when a speaker quotes another in a way that they voice the…

Yung, Kevin Wai Ho; Zeng, Chun – Language and Education, 2022
The shift from meritocracy to parentocracy in contemporary societies has resulted in a situation where children's educational success increasingly depends on parents' wealth and wishes rather than children's ability and efforts. Better-off parents can afford extra learning activities to increase children's competitive edge. This phenomenon is…

te Riele, Kitty; Stewart, Sarah; Stratford, Elaine – Language and Education, 2022
School improvement has become a goal in many education systems globally, with the mantra of 'whole school change' adopted as key to achieving that goal. However, whole school change is complex and interpreted variously. In Australia, a case in point is the drive to lift literacy outcomes. Drawing on qualitative data from a study of literacy…

Rhodes, Catherine R.; Clonan-Roy, Katherine; Wortham, Stanton E. F. – Language and Education, 2021
We argue that 'academic language' should not be understood as technical components associated with a 'register', and that instead we must attend to its enregisterment. Enregisterment relies upon language ideologies and models of personhood, requiring attention to social components of 'academic language' beyond lexico-grammar. We draw on…
