"Why are you here?" A hearing instructor's journey into a deaf community of practice and discussions of family language policies
Informed by the sociocultural theory on learning and approached as an ethnographic logic of inquiry, the aim of this telling case study is to explore and share the experiences of a hearing educator's socialization into a deaf community of practice within Gallaudet -the only institution of higher learning in the world for the deaf and the hard of hearing students, her consequent teaching beliefs, her family language polices (FLPs) 12 and what she …
Exploring the complexities of transnationalism
Transnational living patterns have become increasingly more common. Language is how transnationals ‘forge and sustain multi-stranded social relations that link together their societies of origin and settlement’ (Basch et al. 1994:7) and partake in different opportunities. In the present work, we empirically examine relationships between two types of transnationalism: immigrant and transsettler, as rooted in the initial, temporal factors associate…
“We Speak Pidgin!” – Family Language Policy as the Telling Case for Translanguaging Spaces and Monolingual Ideologies
With the increase in global movement, both temporary (travel and transsettlement) and permanent (e/immigration), traditional conceptions of the linguistic processes rooted largely in the long-term translocation(s) or migrations are revisited through the study of family language policy. The present study of family language policy serves as a telling case (Mitchell, 1984) of (1) translanguaging (Williams, 1994) as a practical theory of language (Li…
Understanding the complexities of transnational family language policy
Traditional notions of family structure and settlement are no longer representative of families that are pursuing global opportunities for different reasons. Transnational families are increasingly more common and their experiences rooted in more frequent or intended translocations are different than those of the immigrant populations. One of the key issues transnational families and individuals must face on an ongoing basis is language: which la…
Socialization of Language Through Family Language Policy
Challenges of heritage language maintenance and benefits of bilingualism have been widely acknowledged. Heritage language maintenance research most oft en focuses on heritage languages in English-dominant societies. This paper presents a case study on family language policy experiences, strategies, and outcomes led by an American-born mother in her effort to maintain and promote English, her heritage language, within the home in the Hebrew-domina…
Using Social Media Networks to Conduct Questionnaire Based Research in Social Studies Case Study
The Internet has permeated all aspects of daily life in many areas of the world. Its advancement and feasibility affects how we work, socialize, and spend our time. The advent of social media networks has greatly contributed to these changes and has become the place where people on the Internet are. In light of this new social movement, we propose that social media networks can and should be viewed as the potential way of reaching participants in…
