Toward a humanizing pedagogy: Leveling the cultural and linguistic capital in a fifth-grade writing classroom
Abstract
The increasing number of culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) students in the United States has created a priority for examining the perspectives, dispositions, and attitudes that best support these learners’ writing. This study explores the link between a teacher’s developing pedagogical language knowledge and humanizing practices and her teaching of persuasive writing to CLD fifth-grade students. Utilizing case study methodology, the study found that a teacher’s knowledge of language and use of humanizing pedagogy facilitated students’ writing development while preserving their CLD identities. This study contributes to research on asset-based, humanizing pedagogies that build on interrelationships among language, culture, and writing.

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.
