This book examines Chinese tertiary students' experiences of
learning English in Sino-Australian programs in China. Using an
institutional ethnography, the book examines one well-established
Sino-Australian program based at a Chinese university. The book
explores the ways that participant students used the Chinese words,
tropes and their meanings to describe their English learning
experiences with both local Chinese and foreign English teachers.
This book introduces an innovative theoretical framework,
"representation theory with a multilingual perspective", to analyse
how Chinese students' everyday experiences are constructed and
mediated through language, discourse and identity. This framework
also highlights graphic examples of how concepts are created in
both Chinese and English, and thus serves as a powerful tool for
deconstructing dichotomies between China and the West. The aim of
this book is, then, two-fold: to show how a novel theoretical lens
can help us to develop more nuanced understandings of Chinese
students, and to propose a new methodological and theoretical
framework through which one can challenge the monolingual
subjectivity and parochial views of both Chinese and Western
conceptions.
