This book introduces Critical Language Awareness (CLA) Pedagogy as
a robust and research-grounded framework to engage and support
students in critical examinations of language, identity, privilege
and power. Starting with an accessible introduction to CLA,
chapters cover key topics-including World Englishes, linguistic
prejudice, news media literacy, inclusive language practices, and
more-in an inviting and thought-provoking way to promote reflection
and analysis. Part I provides an overview of the foundations of CLA
pedagogy, while Part II highlights four instructional pathways for
CLA pedagogy: Sociolinguistics, Critical Academic Literacies,
Media/Discourse Analysis, and Communicating Across Difference. Each
pathways chapter is structured around Essential Questions and
Transferrable Skills, and includes three thematic learning
sequences. Part III offers tools and guidance for tailoring CLA
pedagogy to the reader's own teaching context and to students'
individual needs. The volume's wealth of resources and activities
are a pedagogical toolkit for supporting and embracing linguistic
diversity in the classroom. The cohesive framework, concrete
strategies, engaging activities, and guiding questions in this
volume allow readers to come away with not only a deeper
understanding of CLA, but also a clear roadmap for implementing CLA
pedagogy in the classroom. Synthesizing relevant research from
educational linguistics and writing studies, this book is ideal for
courses in English/literacy education, college composition, L2
writing instruction, and educational linguistics.
