Adolescent & Adult Literacies in Multilingual School Settings by Emily Machado https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies en-us 2019-05-02 19:45:54 UTC 2019-05-03 01:11:18 UTC hello@padlet.com "Although Christina’s character played the role of the 'appropriate' interviewee, students perceived her as inauthentic. However, students saw Maya’s character as 'real' and thought she should have gotten the job, despite the fact that her language practices clashed with the interview context. It seemed that if a person of color like Christina spoke and behaved so professionally, she must have been acting, performing an identity not authentic to her" (Seltzer, p. 7). https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356443712 2019-05-03 00:52:47 UTC https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356443712 Seltzer quoting Young (2009) https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356443882 "..if studets who speak Black english Are]]> 2019-05-03 00:53:46 UTC https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356443882 Definition of Literacy https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356443913  a situated social activity and a process and that its consequences are never predictable nor guaranteed.

This raises the difficult question of which pedagogical efforts are truly emancipatory and which only appear to be while further solidifying existing social distinctions, particularly in a time of unprecedented global flows and transnational connections” (Brooks, 2007, p.321). https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356444140 2019-05-03 00:55:08 UTC https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356444140 Job Interview role-play discussion https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356444187 "Students’ reading of
this scene was unexpected for Ms. Winter and me and
reveals a previously unforeseen consequence of raciolinguistic
ideologies: Although students’ role-plays demonstrated that they could engage in what has been
described as code-switching,
this might not involve a
switch in their understandings of who they are in relation
to white listening subjects." (Seltzer, p. 7)

Yet, I maintain that we must question, indeed critique, the assumed value of tests and test scores in educational programs such as this and the kinds of literacy practices fostered by them, especially as they compare with the kinds of knowledges, language proficiencies, and literacies that language learners actually need to survive and thrive in the “real world”—the world beyond the classroom door" (Warriner, 2007).]]> 2019-05-03 00:55:53 UTC https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356444285 Brooks p.360 https://padlet.com/machado21/literacies/wish/356444351 "her alternative spelling actually signifies the depth and extent of her English language knowledge, not a deficiency.
