Yongyan Zheng; Yixi Qiu – Language and Education, 2024
Informed by a combined framework of 'translanguaging' and 'epistemic injustice', this paper examines how a group of teachers and students from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds negotiated their knowledge participation through translanguaging in an English medium instruction (EMI) degree program at a Chinese university. Data were…

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…

Hennessy, Sara; Calcagni, Elisa; Leung, Alvin; Mercer, Neil – Language and Education, 2023
Dialogic approaches based on active student participation, open, respectful discussion, exploring and critiquing different perspectives are increasingly found to support student learning. However, the specific productive forms of teacher-student interaction have rarely been studied systematically. A recent large-scale project explored the…

Canut, Emmanuelle; Masson, Caroline; Husianycia, Magali – Language and Education, 2023
Studies that measure the effectiveness of language-training program for children's language development do not clearly identify in adult-child interaction which characteristics of educators' language are most effective, particularly for children over 4 years of age who need to develop complex syntactic skills. Our study aimed to analyze the…

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,…

Koh, Jungyoon; Dominic, Helen; Elmendorf, Heidi; Cowgill, Sarah – Language and Education, 2023
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…

Foley, Yvonne; Anderson, Charles; Hancock, Jonathan; Conteh, Jean – Language and Education, 2022
While there is now a considerable body of work on teacher identity in the area of language education, much less attention has been given to the question of the extent to which student teachers are enabled to construct identities that are consonant with the opportunities and challenges of current multilingual classrooms. Drawing on a recent…

Thüne, Eva-Maria; Brizic, Katharina – Language and Education, 2022
Learning a new language after forced migration has hardly ever been studied from the perspective of children. Their viewpoint, however, gets even more important, if we want to understand the lifelong consequences of their early experiences. With this aim, we use autobiographical accounts of persons who were rescued from Nazi Germany and brought to…

Dialogic pedagogy aims to promote deliberative democratic skills, virtues and practices within an equitable and empowering classroom environment. This article problematizes the practice of setting classroom ground rules in light of dialogic pedagogy's democratic aspirations. Specifically, we explore the space for dissenting voices within the…

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…

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…

Tai, Kevin W. H.; Wei, Li – Language and Education, 2021
Recent studies on classroom discourse have challenged the traditional classroom role set and emphasised equal contributions from the participants and the emergence of knowledge through active participation. Co-learning emphasises the process in which teachers and students attempt to adapt to one another's behaviour and learn from each other in…

Cui, Ruiguo; Teo, Peter – Language and Education, 2021
Dialogic education has become increasingly appealing due to the recognized value of dialogue for the development of students' thinking and knowledge. Yet, its appeal has not catalysed widespread adoption of dialogic education in classrooms due partly to teachers' uncertainty over the conceptualization of dialogic education and the presence of…

Heron, Marion; Dippold, Doris; Hosein, Anesa; Khan Sullivan, Ameena; Aksit, Tijen; Aksit, Necmi; Doubleday, Jill; McKeown, Kara – Language and Education, 2021
Although participation in academic speaking events is a key to developing disciplinary understanding, students for whom English is a second language may have limited access to these learning events due to an increasingly dialogic and active higher education pedagogy which places considerable demands on their oracy skills. Drawing on the Oracy…
