These epistemic damages are also visible in how ELT textbooks are designed in local contexts. Informed by posthumanism and Southern epistemology, the present study analyzes the discursive/semiotic representation of nature, environment and human-nature relations in English language textbooks in Sindh province of Pakistan – highly affected climate region in South Asia. The study used Eco-CLA and multimodality as theoretical frameworks. The findings suggest that the English textbooks fail to incorporate localized sustainable thinking as well as lack references to marginalized communities affected by deteriorating ecological conditions in Pakistan. Instead, the textbooks tend to normalize the unsustainable stories connecting learning to the physical world in an anthropocentric, aestheticized, and neoliberal consumerist manner, while disregarding nonhuman entities as sentient entities. In light of our findings, we call for posthumanist discursive reparations informed by Southern epistemologies in order to rethink the writing of textbooks in ecologically affected global regions, including Sindh – the authors’ geo-epistemic context. This requires shifting away from anthropocentric disembodied conception of world to an embodied world characterized by nonduality, co-existence, entanglement and harmony.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47468,"journal":{"name":"Linguistics and Education","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 101397"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143394597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a case study of early educators in a Black-majority preschool program, this paper sheds light on early educators’ knowledge, attitudes, professional preparation and needs regarding meeting the educational needs of AAE speakers; caution is warranted due to the small sample size and single source. Nevertheless, the findings from this case study are examined through an anti-racist and anti-linguicism lens, calling for a transformative linguistic approach, translanguaging, that recognizes the injustice of requiring African American children to demonstrate linguistic flexibility by switching codes. This requires their cognitive resources to be allocated to learning the language of the classroom along with other academic and social skills without allowing them access to their full linguistic repertoires. In addition to more research regarding educators’ knowledge, attitudes, and professional preparation regarding AAE, this paper calls for transformative training and ideology shifting, coupled with structural changes, to support early educators to accept the use of dialects used by children by recognizing that each language and language variety is utilized in different spaces for specific functions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47468,"journal":{"name":"Linguistics and Education","volume":"85 ","pages":"Article 101382"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143138131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following a critical post-structuralist lens, this qualitative study examines how the implementation of EMI impacts the emotions and agency of international students in Southwest China.

To empower themselves and alleviate those emotional challenges, international students, as entreprenurial subjects, adopted agencies by exploiting digital space, seeking peer support and utilizing the local linguistic learning resources. The study closes with implications to promote students’ emotional awareness in policy making and implementation, calling for creating inclusive and supportive learning environments that optimize students’ academic success and overall well-being.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47468,"journal":{"name":"Linguistics and Education","volume":"85 ","pages":"Article 101361"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143138128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
