Language Awareness in the Curriculum explores a new approach to teaching literacy in a multicultural classroom by seeking to make students more sensitive to the role language plays in everyday life. It challenges them to ask questions about language, its origins and its location in the world’s language ‘map’. The learning process of LA includes the reconstruction of language experience and an opening for new and culturally diverse experiences in the classroom. The authors examine such issues as cultural dimensions of LA, language variety in the classroom, LA and information technology, literacy in the global village, minority rights and language policies, storytelling in the curriculum, the English literature curriculum and standards for the English Language Arts. Language Awareness in the Curriculum offers a unique introduction to culturally significant issues affecting the nature of language learning in a multicultural classroom.
