内容説明

Unlike more conventional language learning literature where the political dimensions of language learning are seldom acknowledged or addressed, Lilia Bartolom candidly discusses the dominant deficit ideology underlying cultural difference explanations of linguistic minority student underachievement as well as the romantization ideology that implicitly presents dominant culture ways of speaking as more advanced and desirable ways of communicating. }In her book, The Misteaching of Academic Discourses, Lilia I. Bartolom thoughtfully discusses the significance of teaching working-class linguistic minority students academic discourse styles necessary for success in school and she powerfully describes one teachers attempts to do so. The author presents her classroom study as a case in point and captures the ideological battle of wills that results when one teacher attempts to elicit from students more standard and academic ways of speaking. Unlike more conventional language learning literature where the political dimensions of language learning are seldom acknowledged or addressed, Bartolom candidly discusses the dominant deficit ideology underlying cultural difference explanations of linguistic minority student underachievement as well as the romantization ideology that implicitly presents dominant culture ways of speaking as more advanced and desirable ways of communicating. Her book critically analyzes a well-intentioned teachers efforts to teach her working class Mexican American students mainstream academic ways of speaking and unmasks the veiled antagonistic relationship between a white teacher and her students of color, the students resistance efforts, and the teachers resulting deficit explanations of her students performance. The Misteaching of Academic Discourses is a must read for all those educators who are faced with issues of language, race, and class. }
