"Between Two Grammars builds on earlier works in the field of
language learning and teaching and brings new ideas about language
teaching in a Creole-speaking environment. Using Jamaica as the
example, the history of education is examined with a view to
explaining some of the current attitudes to schooling and the
objections to accepting Jamaican Creole (Patois/Patwa) as a
necessary part of the consciousness of the classroom teacher.
Constructed with an understanding of the unique requirements for
language teaching in the Caribbean, whilst integrating theory and
practice, Dr Byan s recommendations in Between Two Grammars are the
result of years of research within the fields of sociolinguistics,
language education, Caribbean history and teacher education.
Educators, whether in training or in practice; and Education
policymakers will find Between Two Grammars not only an enriching
presentation of the nature of language debates in the Caribbean but
also an empowering tool for improved language teaching practice. "
