Medium of Instruction Policies: Which Agenda? Whose Agenda?

by James W. Tollefson Amy B. M. Tsui

Medium of instruction policies in education have considerable impact not only on the school performance of students and the daily work of teachers, but also on various forms of social and economic (in)equality. In many multiethnic and multilingual countries, the choice of a language for the medium of instruction in state educational systems raises a fundamental and complex educational question: what combination of instruction in students' native language(s) and in a second language of wider communication will ensure that students gain both effective subject-content education, as well as the second-language skills necessary for higher education and employment? Beyond this educational issue of choice of language(s) of instruction, medium of instruction policies are also linked to a range of important sociopolitical issues, including globalization, migration, labor policy, elite competition, and the distribution of economic resources and political power. The contributors to this volume examine the tension between the educational agendas and other social and political agendas underlying medium of instruction policies in different countries around the world, and unravel the connections between these policies and the related, critically important educational, social, political, and economic issues. Medium of Instruction Policies: Which Agenda? Whose Agenda? is intended for scholars and specialists in education, language policy, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, and language teaching, and is intended for use in graduate and advanced undergraduate courses on language education and language policy.

Meine Familie ist arm: Wie Kinder im Grundschulalter Armut erleben und bewältigen

by Karl August Chassé Margherita Zander Konstanze Rasch

Im Buch wird aus Schilderungen von Kindern deutlich, wie sie sich, ihre Familie, ihr Umfeld unter Armutsbedingungen sehen. Eine einzigartige Analyse der verheerenden, vielschichtigen Auswirkungen von Armut auf Kinder. Das Buch liefert die Ergebnisse einer qualitativen Studie, die die Lebenslage von Kindern im Grundschulalter aus der Perspektive der Kinder untersucht. Es handelt sich um eine der ersten Studien, die auf Eigenaussagen der Kinder basiert. Insgesamt zeigt sich, dass die Prozesse zunehmender Benachteiligung und des mehrdimensionalen Ausschlusses von Kindern eine theoretische, empirische und konzeptuelle Herausforderung für die Soziale Arbeit darstellen. Es wird vor allem das bislang unzureichende Instrumentarium der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe deutlich. Im Ergebnis diskutiert das Buch Vorschläge für eine konzeptionelle Umorientierung der Jugendhilfe, womit ein nachvollziehbarer Transfer der Ergebnisse in den Bereich der sozialpädagogischen, erzieherischen und bildungsrelevanten Berufe erfolgt.

Models and Modeling Perspectives: A Special Double Issue of mathematical Thinking and Learning

by Richard Lesh

This special issue of Mathematical Thinking and Learning describes models and modeling perspectives toward mathematics problem solving, learning, and teaching. The concern is not only the mature forms of models and modeling in communities of scientists and mathematicians, but also the need to initiate students in these forms of thought. The contributions of this issue suggest a variety of ways that students (children through adults) can be introduced to highly productive forms of modeling practices. Collectively, they illustrate how modeling activities often lead to remarkable mathematical achievements by students formerly judged to be too young or too lacking in ability for such sophisticated and powerful forms of mathematical thinking. The papers also illustrate how modeling activities often create productive interdisciplinary niches for mathematical thinking, learning, and problem solving that involve simulations of similar situations that occur when mathematics is useful beyond school.
