Community-based heritage language school teachers’ pedagogical language practices as teacher investment
Exploring teachers’ pedagogical conceptual change about translanguaging in professional development through a stancetaking lens
Humor in multimodal language use
Exploring bilingual adolescents’ translanguaging strategies during online reading
Bilingual adolescents actively participate in literacy practices on the multilingual Internet. However, research has paid little attention to these readers’ use of their linguistic knowledge and skills as they choose and learn from multilingual resources on the Internet. With think-aloud protocols, this study examined how Korean-English bilingual middle school students accessed their two languages during online reading. The findings demonstrated …
Immigrant Parents' Ideological Positioning on Bilingualism
It is critical for educators to understand how the official educational policy of the United States, which reflects dominant language ideologies, renders a particular view of immigrant families and students. Educational policy explicitly emphasizes the need for linguistically diverse students to acquire standard English, implicitly problematizing and devaluing linguistic diversity. Immigrant parents are aware of the importance of learning the soc…
“Okay, I will say in Korean and then in American”
Building on the research on translanguaging practices in classrooms (e.g. García, 2009 ; Sayer, 2011 ) and immigrant families’ literacy practices (e.g. Gregory et al., 2004; Li, 2006 ), this qualitative study explores the nature of translanguaging practices of four Korean bilingual children and their families in home literacy events. Participant observation with video recordings and field notes was used to gather data, and the data analysis focus…
No one speaks Korean at school!”
This study examined how a Korean family with temporary immigrant status in the United States employed ideological discourses on languages to make sense of their experiences. The parents initially accepted but later rejected ideologies on children’s learning of English. English-as-a-legitimate-language ideology in the United States and English-as-linguistic-capital ideology challenged the parents’ efforts to teach their children Korean. The focal …
Expressing Uncertainty in Computer-Mediated Discourse
Learning and dialogue may naturally engender feelings and expressions of uncertainty for a variety of reasons and purposes. Yet, little research has examined how patterns of linguistic uncertainty are enacted and changed over time as students reciprocally influence one another and the dialogical system they are creating. This study describes the occurrence of uncertainty expressions of graduate students collaborating in computer-mediated discussi…
