“They don’t see us otherwise”: A discourse analysis of marginalized students critiquing the local news
Publication date: August 2018Source: Linguistics and Education, Volume 46Author(s): Angela M.

In this article, we analyze two data sources related to this event: one local news report and a discussion of that news report that occurred in an Intensive Reading class at the school. Intensive Reading was a remedial course designed for students who had failed a required standardized literacy assessment. In this article, we draw upon discourse anal...

Imagined communities and identities: A spaciotemporal discourse analysis of one woman's literacy journey
This study investigates the narratives of Marla, a 25-year old bilingual and biliterate transnational Latina mother.

Marla's narratives illuminated a spatial and temporal framework that warranted a closer, more nuanced look at how she positioned herself in time and space. The authors inquired into what Marla's narratives suggested about her constructions of literacy and identity. Specifically, we focus o...

Eligibility and bad news delivery: How call-takers reject applicants to university
Publication date: August 2018Source: Linguistics and Education, Volume 46Author(s): Elliott M. Hoey, Elizabeth StokoeAbstractThis paper examines how delivering bad news may be avoided in conversations where rejection is common. We collected ∼2000 recordings of telephone calls from prospective students to a UK university contact centre during an annual process called ‘Clearing and Adjustment’. Applicants call to secure a place on a degree programme but are often ineligible due to insufficient grades. Based on a sample of 200 calls analyzed using conversation analysis, we show that call-takers determined applicants’ ...

Creating translanguaging spaces in students’ academic writing practices
Publication date: June 2018Source: Linguistics and Education, Volume 45Author(s): Kathrin KaufholdAbstractPostgraduates increasingly write in multilingual contexts. Studies have focused on developing bilingual expertise or harnessing expressions of writer identity. Yet, the role of students’ linguistic ideologies and their writing experiences has so far not been problematised. Based on Busch's sociolinguistic model of linguistic repertoire (2012), this paper investigates how students develop their academic writing across language codes and registers in the multilingual contexts of a Swedish university. The qualitative, l...

Exploring the complexity of high school students’ beliefs about language variation
This study explores the knowledge and beliefs about language variation from high school students in the San Francisco Bay Area. Using quantitative analysis of a survey of language beliefs, combined with a thematic analysis of student interviews, the study explores the language ideologies demonstrated by students from a wide range of sociocultural backgrounds. Key findings include that neither race nor linguistic background predict whether students hold dominant language ideologies that frame Standardized English as the correct form of English, or critical language ideologies that uphold the value of all English varieties. ...
