Abstract

In this qualitative study stemming from a discourse community with six elementary teachers in the United States, discourse analysis was used to explore how these teachers discuss the international notion that youth are in a social and emotional crisis. The teachers resisted a deficit narrative that youth are to blame for this crisis and require fixing. Resistance was evident in teachers' discursive strategies such as illuminating students’ strengths, recognizing how “crisis” can emerge from systems operating as intended, and pointing out the contradictory metaphors of movement (stuck in the past, obsessed with progress) that can prevent global transformation in education.

孩子们（不是）没事：教师对处于社会情感危机中的青少年言论的看法

在这项定性研究中，我们与美国的六位小学教师组成了一个话语社区，通过话语分析来探讨这些教师是如何讨论青少年处于社会和情感危机这一国际概念的。教师们抵制赤字叙事，即青少年是这场危机的罪魁祸首，需要加以解决。这种抵制体现在教师的话语策略中，如彰显学生的优势，认识到 "危机 "是如何从按计划运行的系统中产生的，并指出运动的矛盾隐喻（停留在过去，沉迷于进步）可能会阻碍全球教育变革。
