  • KEYNOTE SPEAKERS Contesting Language Norms and Ideologies
    KEYNOTE SPEAKERS Contesting Language Norms and Ideologies: Voice and Agency in Classroom Interaction in Selected Black and Coloured Schools in Cape Town Felix Banda University of the Western Cape Formulations of language education in South Africa are predicated on ‘pure’ countable languages as home and first language, second language and third additional language of instruction. The general aim of this paper is to contrast the language ideologies in official language policy documents of provincial and national governments with the ideologies informing actual classroom practice in education settings. Drawing from recent notions of language as social practice, the paper uses classroom interaction data from selected coloured and black schools in Cape Town to explore classroom language practices that defy prescribed language policy pronouncements as well as dominant ideologies of languages as being constituted by autonomous entities. It will be argued that the emergent language practices are not only counter-hegemonic but also ensure increased and broader participation by learners in their own education. The paper will show how learners’ spaces of interaction and use of linguistic resources are not bound by rigid domain boundaries or inflexible hegemonic linguistic systems, and that this openness leads to the decentring of the ‘standard’ language. The paper will also discuss the implications of the disjuncture in late modern South Africa between the language practices of learners on the one hand and the prescribed norms of language use promoted by the South African education system and gatekeepers for language education policy on the other hand. Outcomes-based Language Frameworks: Can They Accommodate the Diversity of Language Learner Achievements? Catherine Elder University of Melbourne The paper reviews ongoing debates surrounding the development and use of frameworks that describe student achievements in language learning.
