This work provides an analysis of how knowledge is constructed and
defined by teachers and lecturers in schools and
universities/colleges. It considers how everyday uses of reading,
writing, numeracy and science are cast aside in favour of academic
language and academic discourse, arguing that such discourses are
alien to learners' daily experiences and are, therefore, difficult
to acquire and adopt.;Chapters examine literacies of English,
mathematics and science as practised in and outside schools and
colleges. The book is interdisciplinary and multicultural, adopting
perspectives from the UK, USA, South Africa, India, Brazil and
Kenya. It should be of interest to a wide market of
educationalists, including those involved in educational policy
making, teacher education, cultural/multicultural studies,
development studies, anthropology, and adult and continuing
education.
