Using student positioning to identify collaboration during pair work at the computer in mathematics
Publication date: August 2018Source: Linguistics and Education, Volume 46Author(s): Anna F. DeJarnetteAbstractWhen students share a computer in a mathematics class, the types of interactions that constitute collaboration can vary from more typical group work settings. The way that students position themselves towards one another through utterances and exchanges has implications for how students collaborate. In this paper I illustrate a method that uses techniques from Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) to analyze how collaboration can be traced to strings of individual utterances and acts. Drawing on positioning theory ...

Practices of self-selection in the graduate classroom: Extension, redirection, and disjunction
This study investigates the practices of student self-selection in the graduate-level American classroom. Self-selection is a crucial part of the learning process because it allows for the exchange of students’ and teachers’ views, analyses, and opinions, making these exchanges into a whole-classroom experience. Active students who make oral contributions in class are believed to learn more than those who do not (Weaver & Qi, 2005) and to enhance their critical thinking (Crone, 1997; Garside, 1996). In the graduate classroom, however, student self-selection may be challenging, as the material students tackle tends to b...

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. ...

Academic socialization as the production and negotiation of social space
This article introduces the concept of academic social space as a useful construct to understand and interpret the academic language socialization of individuals in English second language academic spaces. Academic social space builds on the concepts of community of practice (Lave & Wenger, 1991) and production of space (Lefebvre, 1991). The article then reports on a study that adopted the notion of academic social space to examine the language socialization of one international student in a tertiary institute in New Zealand. Data about this case from various sources including diaries, interviews, class observations, field...
