Abstract:

This book explores multilingual practices such as translanguaging,
code-switching and stylization in secondary classrooms in Hawai’i. Using
linguistic ethnography, it investigates how students in a linguistically
diverse class, including those who speak less commonly taught languages, deal
with learning tasks and the social life of the class when using these
languages alongside English as a lingua franca. It discusses implications for
teachers, from balancing student needs in lesson planning and instruction to
classroom management, where the language use of one individual or group can
create challenges of understanding, participation or deficit identity
positionings for another. The book argues that students must not only be
allowed to flex their whole language repertoires to learn and communicate but
also be aware of how to build bridges across differences in individual
repertoires. It offers suggestions for teachers to consider within their own
contexts, highlighting the need for teacher autonomy to cultivate the
classroom community’s critical language awareness and create conducive
environments for learning. This book will appeal to postgraduate students,
researchers and academics working in the fields of sociolinguistics and
linguistic ethnography as well as pre-service and in-service teachers in
linguistically diverse secondary school contexts.
