本文报告了一项对印度各地八名中学英语教师的多语言实践的比较案例研究,他们都是使用多种标准来确定其背景的专家。从课堂观察、访谈和其他来源收集、分析和比较了不同案例的定性和定量数据。研究发现,尽管参与者之间存在明显的差异,但他们都参与了包括学习者语言在内的复杂的翻译实践,总是优先考虑学习者的参与而不是语言的选择。它还发现,在每种情况下,学习者总是反映其教师的各种翻译实践,课堂社区的实践被发现反映了更广泛的印度社会的实践,使学习者既能满足单语笔试的规范要求,又能学习更灵活地将英语融入口语教学。鉴于这些发现,在印度和整个全球南方类似的多语种背景下,对教育政策和实践提出了两项建议:政策制定者和机构避免对单一语言目标语言的无条件认可(例如:在语言教学中,教师应优先考虑让学生参与课堂话语和活动,而不是最大限度地使用目标语言。
This paper reports on a comparative case study of the multilingual practices of eight secondary teachers of English from across India, all identified as experts of their contexts using multiple criteria. Both qualitative and quantitative data from classroom observations, interviews and other sources were collected, analysed and compared across cases. It finds that, while there was noticeable variation among the participants, all engaged in complex translingual practices that were inclusive of their learners’ languages, invariably prioritising learner participation over language choice. It also finds that, in each context, learners invariably mirrored the varied translingual practices of their teachers, and that the practices of the classroom community were found to be reflective of practices in wider Indian society, enabling learners both to meet the normative requirements of monolingual written exams while also learning to integrate English more flexibly in their spoken repertoires. Given these findings, two recommendations are offered for educational policy and practice, both in India and comparable multilingual contexts across the Global South: for policy-makers and institutions to avoid the unqualified endorsement of monolingual target language (e.g. ‘English-only’) practices in language instruction, and for teachers to prioritise learner inclusion in classroom discourse and activities over maximal target language use.
