商品描述

This volume offers an approach to language and literacy instruction that brings together theoretical concepts of multiliteracies and second language acquisition. This approach is illustrated through examples of innovative teacher-generated action research conducted in Indigenous and English, dual language and immersion classrooms, all situated in the context of language and cultural maintenance and revitalization. These examples of praxis help to bridge the gap between theory and practice in Indigenous language and literacy teaching.

The volume draws on critical theories of praxis and the concept of multiliteracies and multimodalities, with specific attention to the design cycle as a way to conceptualize and engage in praxis through research and pedagogy. The authors trace teacher trajectories relating to (language) teaching and their positionalities in language revitalization and maintenance efforts by using a participatory teacher action research approach. The final chapterbrings together Indigenous and western onto-epistemological and methodological perspectives in a conversation among two western and an Indigenous scholar, who have been working together with the teacher-researchers whose stories are presented in this volume.

This volume is of interest to scholars, graduate students, educational practitioners and educational leaders interested in multiliteracies, multimodalities, teacher action research, and Indigenous pedagogies.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書提供了一種結合多元識字和第二語言習得理論概念的語言和識字教學方法。這種方法通過在土著語言和英語、雙語和沉浸式教室中進行創新教師生成的行動研究的實例來加以說明,這些教室都處於語言和文化維護和振興的背景下。這些實踐的例子有助於在土著語言和識字教學中將理論與實踐之間的鴻溝拉近。

本書借鑒了批判性實踐理論和多元識字和多模態的概念,特別關注設計循環作為一種概念化和通過研究和教學參與實踐的方式。作者們通過使用參與式教師行動研究方法,追蹤與(語言)教學相關的教師軌跡以及他們在語言振興和維護努力中的位置。最後一章將土著和西方的本體論和方法論觀點結合在一起,進行了一次對話,參與對話的是兩位西方學者和一位土著學者,他們與在本書中呈現的教師研究者一起工作。

本書對於對多元識字、多模態、教師行動研究和土著教育感興趣的學者、研究生、教育從業人員和教育領導者具有重要意義。
