双语双语教育(DLBE)项目的框架是为了反映多元话语(de Jong, E.[2013])。政策话语与教育政策中的美国语言。教育学报,88(1):98-111)。DLBE项目的不断扩展,毫不奇怪地揭示了教育者语言意识形态的多样性和不断变化的景观。本研究以调查为基础,采用推理统计和定性专题分析的方法,对一个大型城市学区在全学区范围内自上而下实施DLBE项目的管理人员和教师的语言意识形态进行了研究。以下三个研究问题指导了我们的调查:(1)DLBE学校中流行的教育者语言意识形态是什么?(2)参与DLBE、教学经验水平、教育者的母语和DLBE培训程度如何以及在多大程度上影响这些语言意识形态?(3)教育工作者如何看待计划向DLBE的转变?除英语外的其他语言(OTE)是天赋、多语言是问题等8种语言意识形态占了数据差异的46%。所有四个经验变量都区分了意识形态取向。教育工作者报告说,意识形态紧张和缺乏支持影响了这些措施的实施。
ABSTRACT Dual language bilingual education (DLBE) programs are framed to reflect pluralist discourses (de Jong, E. [2013]. “Policy Discourses and U.S. Language in Education Policies.” Peabody Journal of Education 88 (1): 98–111) and affiliated language ideologies. The continued expansion of DLBE programs not surprisingly brings to light the diverse and ever-changing landscape of educator language ideologies. This survey-based study used inferential statistics and qualitative thematic analysis to explore the language ideologies of a random sample of administrators and teachers involved in a district-wide, top-down implementation of a DLBE program in a large urban school district. The following three research questions guided our investigation: (1)What are prevalent educator language ideologies in DLBE schools? (2) How and to what extent do these language ideologies vary by: participation in the DLBE, level of teaching experience, educator's home language, and degree of DLBE training? (3) How do educators perceive the attempted program shift to DLBE? Eight language ideologies including languages other than English (OTE) as endowments and multiple languages as a problem accounted for 46% of the variance in the data. All four experiential variables differentiated ideological orientation. Educators reported that ideological tensions and lack of support influenced their implementation.
