Title | Book: Gendered Identities and Immigrant Language Learning |
Body | From http://www.multilingual-matters.com/display.asp?isb=9781847692139 Gendered Identities and Immigrant Language Learning by Julia Menard-Warwick Publisher: Multilingual Matters Summary: Based on participant observation in a California English as a Second Language family literacy program, this ethnographic study examines how the complexly gendered life histories of immigrant adults shaped their participation in both the English language classroom and the education of their children, within the contemporary sociohistorical context of increasing Latin American immigration to the United States. Through outlining the connections between (gendered) identity work and language learning, this study builds theoretical and empirical justification for teachers to negotiate classroom practice with each community of learners, responding to students' individual goals, histories, and lives outside the classroom.
