Elia Delphi – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2024
In this article, I make sense of my encounters with the language of objectivity as a student, tutor, mentor, and researcher. I rely on Dorothy E. Smith's conceptualisation of the ethic of objectivity, a practice that requires the student to devalue their embodied experience while ripping it from their experiential knowledge, which in turn they…

Beisly, Amber H. – Educational Psychology Review, 2023
Approaches to Learning (AtL) is an umbrella construct describing children's attitudes, habits, and learning styles as they engage in learning. First introduced by the National Education Goals Panel to indicate a child's readiness to learn in school, AtL includes openness to new tasks, initiative, task persistence, and imagination. Over the years,…

Gabriela Johnson – Higher Learning Research Communications, 2024
In this essay, I explore the complex intersection of language, identity, and education with a particular focus on the importance of fostering linguistic equity in higher education settings.

Dustin, Daniel; Schmalz, Dorothy; Allen, Lawrence – Schole: A Journal of Leisure Studies and Recreation Education, 2022
In "The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas are Setting Up a Generation for Failure," Lukianoff and Haidt contend that an atmosphere of "safetyism" threatens the university's ability to serve as an arena for free speech and academic freedom. In this paper, we examine their thinking through one…

L. L. Aull – Across the Disciplines, 2024
This article traces the history of college writing and suggests a different way ahead. To show why we need this approach, the article historicizes the start of postsecondary English as a paradoxical one, committed to egalitarian ideals while privileging narrow and exclusive English usage. To offer an alternative approach, the article synthesizes…

Flores, Nelson – Theory Into Practice, 2020
In this article, I argue that academic language is a raciolinguistic ideology that frames racialized students as linguistically deficient and in need of remediation. I propose language architecture as an alternative framing of language that can serve as a point of entry for resisting these raciolinguistic ideologies in both research and practice.…

Nekoueizadeh, Marziyeh; Bavali, Mohammad; Bagheri, Mohammad Sadegh; Rassaei, Ehsan – Online Submission, 2020
Metadiscourse, defined as discourse about discourse, has been borrowed from philosophy into applied linguistics and has evolved as a new area of research in this field. Although metadiscourse is a relatively new subfield in applied linguistics, it has been researched by a range of scholars around the world. The current paper reports the findings…

Constant Leung – Critical Inquiry in Language Studies, 2023
The notion of language proficiency in English Language Teaching (ELT), as an internationalized educational enterprise, has tended to be operationalized in terms of stable lexicogrammar and enduring normative patterns of social use. It will be argued that this 'established' stability has been challenged by the scholarship in several fields of…

MacSwan, Jeff – Language Teaching Research, 2020
The author situates language education policy and scholarship on Academic English within the broader historical context of standard language ideology, the view that the language variety of socio-economic elites is intrinsically more complex than other varieties. It is argued that the current predominant focus on the nature of school language gives…

Sexton, Waynel; Beegle, Rebecca – English in Texas, 2020
Academic language is the formal language that is common in books and at school, but that students are unlikely to encounter in everyday conversations with friends and family. Not only is academic language critical to school achievement but it is also foundational for the true comprehension of contentrich subjects. Academic language should permeate…

Linares, Emily; Blocker, Déborah – Foreign Language Annals, 2021
Research on academic socialization has predominately focused on the L2 educational experiences of international students. While foreign language (FL) research has explored "multiliteracies" and "intercultural learning," literacy in a FL continues to be understood as the use of foreign words and grammar combined with culturally…

Zucker, Tricia A.; Cabell, Sonia Q.; Pico, Danielle L. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Developing young children's vocabulary is essential for later reading success; thus, early childhood classrooms require a comprehensive vocabulary approach that teaches academic vocabulary. Yet even providing young children with child-friendly definitions of sophisticated words can be a challenge. First, the authors outline the components of a…

The article discusses the use of various institutions of scientific imperialism, including the institution of publishing academic articles in English, the institution of standardizing how research should be reported, and the institution of indexing of articles in two global databases. We show that the establishment of institutions of scientific…

Newman, Trent – Language Policy, 2021
In this article I examine lecturers' beliefs about the use of Tetum for academic, scientific and vocational communication at university in Timor-Leste and discuss the discursive and performative language planning roles that they play in the intellectualisation of the language. Drawing on analysis of recorded discussions among university lecturers…

Gotti, Maurizio – Language Learning in Higher Education, 2020
The recent developments concerning the use of foreign languages in the academic world have strongly favoured English, which has become the preferred medium for international communication in many contexts. This spread of English as a lingua franca has had relevant implications for teaching and research purposes, due to the need for a common…
