WRITING AND BEING WRITTEN: How literacy practices, genres and discourses construct identities Roz Ivanič Literacy Research Centre Lancaster University

The discoursal construction of my own identity: an example value valorize

LISAS ESSAY How is the new national ESOL curriculum being implemented within the Adult College, Lancaster?

Her first paragraph ended: So this essay will be an analysis of the relationship between theoretical ideas … and classroom practices (Brumfit and Mitchell, 1990, p. 14). I will begin by offering details of the new E.S.O.L. curriculum, then describe the class that I observed, and finalise by deciding whether this class fit within the constraints of the curriculum.

…. in the middle of the essay …. In the break I asked the tutor what she thinks of the new Adult ESOL Core Curriculum. She said that she considered it to be very good, as it includes everything that ESOL tutors at the Adult College include in their classes. She added that they should not need to change anything at the Adult College because of the new curriculum.

…. in the middle of the essay …. In the break I asked the tutor what she thinks of the new Adult ESOL Core Curriculum. She said that she considered it to be very good, as it includes everything that ESOL tutors at the Adult College include in their classes. She added that they should not need to change anything at the Adult College because of the new curriculum. This tutors view diverges from the views of the other tutors in the college, who consider that the new curriculum is flawed (see previous section). I therefore decided to investigate why she should hold these divergent views.

…. in the middle of the essay …. In the break I asked the tutor what she thinks of the new Adult ESOL Core Curriculum. She said that she considered it to be very good, as it includes everything that ESOL tutors at the Adult College include in their classes. She added that they should not need to change anything at the Adult College because of the new curriculum. As Bourdieu (1977) convincingly argues, one of the ways in which dominant views are often reproduced is by the process of colonization of those who are most oppressed by them.

…. in the middle of the essay …. In the break I asked the tutor what she thinks of the new Adult ESOL Core Curriculum. She said that she considered it to be very good, as it includes everything that ESOL tutors at the Adult College include in their classes. She added that they should not need to change anything at the Adult College because of the new curriculum. Helene also teaches the advanced and extra-advanced classes in the evenings at the Adult College.

and the paragraph ended …. After the break, the class sprang into an impromptu class discussion about cultural differences. Perhaps Helene allowed this to happen because it was the last class but she might also have thought that conversations in English were of benefit to her students. Even this spoken communication can be related to the Adult ESOL Core Curriculum because one of the requirements is to describe and compare … give general descriptions as well as more specific descriptions (p. 336). It seems that Helene was absolutely right, that the content and structure of the ESOL lessons at the Adult College are already built around the requirements of this new curriculum.
