From Language Teachers to Mentors to Language Teacher Educators
Although school‐based mentors perform core language teacher educator functions, such as modelling pedagogy, scaffolding professional learning, and mediating between theory and practice, they remain largely absent from the literature on language teacher educator identity. This study examines how 11 foreign language teacher mentors (English, Spanish, and French) in the second phase of German teacher education (Vorbereitungsdienst) conceptualize the…
Critical awareness for intersectionality among diverse pre-service language teachers
Developing critical minds
The rise of conspiracy theories (CTs) in the digital and social media age necessitates fostering critical digital literacy (CDL) in educational contexts, particularly within English language classrooms. This ethnographic study investigates the implementation of CTs as a pedagogical tool aimed at enhancing students’ CDL. By observing two English teachers in German secondary schools, we analyze how they navigate discussions around CTs and the impac…
Critical Feminist Pedagogy in English Language Education
Based on an action research project, this paper provides innovative teaching approaches for ELT to ensure gender equality through critical pedagogy. The qualitative study focuses on the reconstruction of students' perceptions through the analysis of group/peer talk allowing for the display of changing viewpoints after having dealt with feminist issues in class. Given the still limited representation of multiple individuals not only in society but…

Cleansing the Czechoslovak Borderlands
Eagle Glassheim presents an imaginative account of the postwar history of the Czechoslovak borderlands/the Sudetenland in his new book. Combining a range of engaging visual images with a variety of primary and secondary sources, and even some personal history, the book offers new insights into a complex and sometimes contentious past. In addition to its analysis of the Czechoslovak borderlands, as Glassheim puts it, the book “is also an extended …
Toward a material culture of Jewish loss
What can physical objects tell us about the Holocaust and the experience of survivors? Studies of Jewish restitution mostly focus on the political debates and negotiations for postwar compensation, as well as institutions and actors involved in these discussions. While individual claimants might be used as examples of particular trends in studies of restitution, we lack a matrix to chart the meaning of individual claims in relation to the overall…
Czechs and Germans 1848–2004
Václav Houžička’s Czechs and Germans 1848–2004, first published in Czech in 2005, offers a broad synthesis of the nationality politics involving Czechs and Germans over 150 years. Houžička seeks to explain the post-World War II expulsion of the Sudeten Germans based on a long-term analysis of the nationality conflicts in the Czech lands. He also explores the ongoing dialogue about the expulsions especially after the end of communist rule. The boo…
Beyond Expulsion
This article examines how the complexities of the Sudeten German expulsion and resettlement of the former Sudetenland spawned the notion that certain groups of people were unreliable or suspicious and, therefore, unwanted inhabitants. The intolerance and suspicion that setters, local and central officials, and others voiced toward different groups and actions directly related to the expulsion of Germans. The rapid influx of new settlers in search…
