Educators and researchers in variety of locations around the world
increasingly encounter linguistically and socio-culturally diverse
groups of students in their classrooms and lecture halls. The
chapters in this edited collection explore how students, teachers
and researchers understand and engage with this diversity by
examining everyday forms of talk and writing in relation to
standardised forms and schooling expectations. It brings to our
attention sets of sites and themes from around the world concerned
with developing critical responses to the challenges and
opportunities provided by social and linguistic diversity in
education. Such diversity requires more dynamic and mobile concepts
of language and literacy than has often been the case in
educational discourse and the chapters show how these might work,
making the book's contribution to the field both timely and
challenging.
This book brings together authors actively involved in shaping the
field of literacy studies, presenting a robust approach to the
theoretical and empirical work which is currently pushing the
boundaries of literacy research and also pointing to future
directions for literacy research.
