Osaamistavoitteet
The course objective is to familiarize students with theory in linguistic anthropology and critical discourse studies that explain language ideology and linguistic identity practices, particularly in language education contexts. Students will also reflect on their own language ideologies, identity practices, and language learning experiences in light of these theories. They will conduct a critical discourse study based on presented models that applies these approaches to a public policy making case study in the domain of language education. We will focus our attention on educational contexts where language and intercultural skills are being taught and learned to consider the implications of our theories and case studies for these contexts.
