Novice teachers’ use of pedagogical language knowledge to humanize language and literacy development

Abstract

This study examined how novice teachers of English for speakers of other languages (ESOL) apply their pedagogical language knowledge (PLK). The authors frame PLK as an essential contributor to teachers’ ability to support multilingual students’ language and literacy development, which in turn contributes to the enactment of humanizing pedagogies, because language and literacy skills enable engagement with meaningful content and full participation in schooling and society. Data sources include lesson observations and interviews with 11 ESOL teachers over the course of 3 years. Participants were observed drawing on their PLK to offer humanizing support for the language and literacy development of multilingual students through the following instructional practices: responding to common developmental language needs; promoting vocabulary development; prioritizing receptive and productive skills at the word, sentence, and discourse levels; and using students’ home language knowledge as a resource. The researchers share data that reveals how participants’ PLK informed their use of these instructional practices. These concrete examples offer a deeper understanding of how all teachers could develop and apply PLK to inform their enactment of humanizing pedagogies with multilingual students.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
