摘要本文从跨语言学的角度来探讨学校的教学,在这些学校里,课堂上的多语种语言实践在教育政策和评估实践中遇到了不那么流畅的语言意识形态。在一个Khayelitsha学校的民族志风格的案例研究中,教师在课堂教学中的语言是流动的,混合语言资源,往往是创造性的和有益的方式。一种典型的话语模式是“互补性跨语言”,即资源在没有从一种命名语言翻译到另一种命名语言的情况下被整合。另一方面,“再生产的translanguaging”也会发生,即首先使用一组语言资源,然后再使用另一组语言资源。我们发现,教师运用语言资源,在他们的处置与一些技巧,使学习者从事学科内容。然而,在学校的语言政策和考试制度中体现出来的机构语言意识形态,使这种熟练的语言实践从一种资产变成了一种相对劣势。尽管教师们意识到他们违反了校长的语言政策,也知道他们的学生正在努力适应单语考试的要求,但他们继续使用跨语言来获得教学优势,尽管学校管理层有严格的分离主义语言意识形态。
Abstract We draw on a translanguaging perspective in this paper to examine teaching in schools where heteroglossic languaging practices in classrooms encounter less fluid language ideologies in educational policy and assessment practices. In an ethnographic-style case study in a Khayelitsha school, the teachers’ languaging in classroom teaching is shown to be fluid, mixing language resources, often in creative and helpful ways. One typical discourse pattern is that of ‘complementary translanguaging’, where resources are meshed without translation from one named language to another. On the other hand, ‘reproductional translanguaging’ also occurs, where meaning is first made using one set of language resources and then made again using another set. We find that teachers apply the language resources at their disposal with some skill to make learners engage with subject content. However, the institutional language ideologies that materialise in the school’s language policy and in testing regimes, turn such skilful language practices from an asset into a relative disadvantage. While aware that they are transgressing the principal’s language policy as well as knowing that their students are struggling with monoglossic examination requirements, teachers continue to translanguage for the pedagogic advantages this brings, despite the rigid, separatist language ideologies that inform school management.
