Rethinking the Social in Language and Education
Helps education professionals understand the educational/societal situations they are dealing with, and literacy instruction and second language learning in particular contexts. This third edition progressively works through differences and tensions in the discourses and practices of sociolinguistics, bilingual education, whole language, and more.The third edition of "With Literacy and Justice for All: Rethinking the Social in Language and Education" continues to document Carole Edelsky's long involvement with socially critical, holistic approaches to the everyday problems and possibilities facing teachers of language and literacy. This book helps education professionals understand the educational/societal situations they are dealing with, and literacy instruction and second language learning in particular contexts. Edelsky does not offer simplistic pedagogical formulas, but rather, progressively works through differences and tensions in the discourses and practices of sociolinguistics, bilingual education, whole language, and critical pedagogy - fields whose practitioners and advocates too often work in isolation from each other and, at times, at cross purposes. |
