Educating Chinese–Heritage Students in the Global–Local Nexus: Identities, Challenges, and Opportunities

Editat de Guofang Li, Wen Ma
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 aug 2017
Weaving together a richly diverse range of student voices, perspectives, and insights, this collection of studies from around the world offers the educational community a better understanding of K-12 and adult Chinese–heritage students’ languages, cultures, identities, motivations, achievements, and challenges in various cross-cultural settings outside North America. Specifically, it addresses these overarching questions:
  • What are Chinese–heritage students’ experiences in language and education in and outside schools? How do they make sense of their multiple ethnic and sociocultural identities?
  • What unique educational challenges and difficulties do they encounter as they acculturate, socialize, and integrate in their host country? What are their common struggles and coping strategies?
  • What are the instructional practices that work for these learners in their specific contexts? What educational implications can be drawn to inform their teachers, fellow students, parents, and their educational communities in a global context?
Individual chapters employ different theoretical frameworks and methodological instruments to wrestle with these questions and critical issues faced by Chinese–heritage learners.

Recenzii

"This book fills [a] void by looking at Chinese diaspora in multiple geographic regions and countries ... with regard to the learning of the host language and English, as a lingua franca, while also learning and/or maintaining Chinese language and culture as a heritage language. … [It] gives readers an opportunity to compare and contrast the varied, data-driven studies and ethnographic accounts that represent the rich, yet complex intersection of sociocultural, multilinguistic and psycho-emotional perspectives."
Jun Liu, Vice Provost for Global Affairs and Professor of Linguistics, Stony Brook University, USA, from the Foreword
"This volume present[s] a great variety of contexts and different challenges, issues and experiences of different kinds of CHLs in different parts of the world…. [and] provide[s] us with some important pointers about what future work needs to be done."
Angel M. Y. Lin, Professor of English Language and Literacy Education, University of Hong Kong, from the Afterword
