Policy Meets Practice: A Multimodal Exploration of Language Education in Galician Schools examines how language policy operates in classroom settings by analysing the processes through which policy is articulated, contextualised, and enacted in everyday pedagogical practice.This study into the experiences of teachers in Galicia, where Galician, Spanish, signed, and migrant languages coexist, offers scholars globally a foundation for understanding the central role of educators in the interpretation, negotiation, and enactment of language policy. Using a multimodal methodological framework that combines critical discourse analysis, qualitative interviews, and visual data, the book examines the institutional, ideological, and material conditions that shape how educators work with linguistic diversity in their classrooms. In doing so, it brings together scholarship on autochthonous minority, migrant, and signed languages, and interrogates the persistent separation of these in policy discourse and educational practice.Policy Meets Practice will be of interest to researchers and postgraduate students in sociolinguistics, language policy and planning, and multilingual education who will gain critical insights into the relationship between language, policy, and education.

Del 76 - Bilingual Education & Bilingualism
Language Use in the Two-Way Classroom
Lessons from a Spanish-English Bilingual Kindergarten
Häftad, Engelska, 2010
390 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Based on an extended ethnographic study of a dual language (Spanish-English) Kindergarten, this book takes a critical look at children's linguistic (and non-linguistic) interactions and the ways that teaching design can help or hinder language development. With a focus on official “Spanish time”, it explores the particular challenges of supporting the minority language use as well as the teacher's strategies for doing so. In bilingual classrooms, teachers' goals include bilingualism as well as academic achievement for all. The children may share these interests, but have their own agendas as well. This book explores the linguistic and social interactions that may help, or hinder, these multiple and sometimes conflicting agendas. How can teachers design educational practice that takes into consideration broader forces of language hegemony as well as children's immediate interests?

Galician Migrations: A Case Study of Emerging Super-diversity
Inbunden, Engelska, 2017

This focused case study analyses the roots of super-diversity in a place where immigration is an emerging phenomenon, Northwestern Spain (Galicia). It is characterized by a mostly rural population, an aging demographic, and a historically depressed economy. Yet the region has recently experienced a significant increase in immigration - a reversal of the region’s historically pronounced trend of emigration. To understand immigration in its early stages, this book takes a historical approach that focuses on diversities that go beyond nationality. It explores local yet international phenomena such as different patterns of return migration, transnational community and familial relationships, and niche labour markets. The book takes a broad interdisciplinary perspective, drawing on sociology, anthropology, history, sociolinguistics, literature, and education, to provide a detailed case study analysis. While the case is specific, many other geographic regions will share some of the factors the book explores. Understanding how these factors interact will provide a useful point of contrast for analysing them in a range of other international contexts.

Whose voices are taken into account in language policy and planning and whose have been ignored or more actively silenced? This is the central question addressed in this book. What are the political and social factors that have helped to create these historical exclusions, in terms of endangerment and loss of traditional languages? What are the global influences on the local landscape of languages and linguistic rights? What are the implications for cultural heritage and identity? In analyzing these questions and reporting on research in an array of countries, the chapter authors also suggest ways forward toward designing more inclusive policies and practices in educational contexts, whether in the context of obligatory schooling or in less formal educational contexts.UNESCO estimates that at least 43% of the estimated 6000 languages spoken in the world are endangered. Such statistics remind us that the linguistic diversity that characterizes the human condition is a fragile thing, and that certain languages need to be cultivated if they are to survive into the 21st century and beyond. The chapters in this volume originated as presentations at the XV World Congress of Comparative Education Societies (Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2013). They represent several global regions, namely Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America. They provide analyses of language policy and politics at the local, regional, national and transnational levels, grass-rootslinguistic revitalization initiatives, and the attitudes of minority and majority speakers toward minoritized languages and cultures and towards intercultural and multilingual education programs.
