Fonseca, Maria da Conceição Ferreira Reis – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2020
The diversity of vulnerability conditions, that have prevented children and adolescents from exercising their right to school education, also produces a diversity of cultural references of the public that comes to Basic Education programs for Youth and Adults in developing countries. This diversity often forges appropriation processes of numeracy…

Taylor, Alice Y. – Ethnography and Education, 2022
Youth movements rose in Brazil in the past decade, fighting for equitable access to education alongside plural -- anti-capitalist, anti-racist, and feminist -- struggles. This article examines interactions by which Brazilian youth activists organise, politicise, and define who constitutes a movement. It focuses on a 2019 public hearing to defend…

da Silva, Rivaldo Lopes; dos Santos, Bruno Ferreira – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
The study of questions has occupied a prominent role in the research into classroom discourse.

Harjunpää, Katariina; Mäkilähde, Aleksi – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2016
One of the most studied forms of multilingual language use is "code-switching," the use of more than one language within a speech exchange. Some forms of code-switching may also be regarded as instances of "translation," but the relation between these notions in studies of multilingual discourse remains underspecified. The…

Souto-Manning, Mariana – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2014
In this article, I question the micro-macro separation in discourse analysis, the separation of personal and institutional discourses. I apply a mostly macroanalytic perspective (critical discourse analysis [CDA]) to inform a predominantly microanalytic perspective (analysis of conversational narratives) and vice versa. In the combination of these…

Straubhaar, Rolf – Race, Ethnicity and Education, 2017
The hegemonic ideology of racial democracy and rural cultural norms of racial silence continue to inform racial identities and national racial discourse in Brazil, in this case within the Landless Rural Workers' Movement (MST), a left-wing movement for agrarian reform. In this article I engage in textual analysis of a textbook from the MST's youth…

Senefonte, Fábio Henrique Rosa – Online Submission, 2014
There are primarily two discourses on slang: one is based on the Linguistic Purism View (slang is seen as an ugly, poor and/or dirty vocabulary); and on the other hand, the Socio-historical-cognitive view understands slang as a rich component of language (BARRA, 2007; MATTIELLO, 2005; ZARBALIYEVA, 2012). Taking this into consideration, this…

Petrucci, Peter – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2012
When films rich in cinematic discourse are translated, "character equivalence", the extent to which translated dialogue distorts identities in the original film, may pose a special challenge for the screen translator. This article discusses this issue in the context of "Talk to me" (Lemmons 2007), a film which showcases…

Junqueira, Eduardo S. – Language and Education, 2008
This article presents the contextualised interpretive analysis of communicative practices (artefacts including a song and a comic strip) developed by economically disadvantaged secondary students from two Brazilian public schools. Students' uses of standard and popular languages stretch and problematise social and cultural constructions about what…

Koike, Dale April – Hispania, 1991
Examines the Brazilian Portuguese use of verb tenses in oral narrative episodes as a device to mark certain utterances that have a cohesive function in relating the episode to the overall purpose of the narrative, facilitating the listener's interpretation of the discourse in a global fashion. (CB)
