The aim of this small-scale research is to deepen understanding of why disengagement with formal modes of the study of English language is so prevalent among learners in FE. It also analyses whether student engagement in English language learning can be increased by introducing more socially-situated literacies into vocational learning and language development activities. This approach to exploring how students respond to the disconnect between socially-situated literacies and functional literacies is informed by Gadamer’s ‘Fusion of Horizons’ [5]. Subsequently, my interest in Gadamer’s work leads me to the respective works of Zimmerman [9], Freire [4] and Bernstein [2]. It is argued that low attendance and disappointing outcomes in GCSE English re-sit written examinations in FE are in part, symptoms of wider issues surrounding a deep-rooted disengagement with, and lack of motivation for, the study of language. However, my experience as a teacher of vocational education indicates that the same students can engage meaningfully with language when the mode of language they study more closely reflects the realities of their cultural, personal and social experiences and life histories.","PeriodicalId":90007,"journal":{"name":"Literacy information and computer education journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45912195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our educational communities are also more global, with language and cultural differences, with technologies that continue to develop and offer opportunities to enhance our teaching and learning. Our course and instructional design need to remain responsive to our changing populations with a nimbleness in our strategic pedagogies that enable us to adjust with the changing times. We need to “future-proof” our designs and ensure personalized learning opportunities. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) offers a path to that end. UDL provides extra layers of design deliberation, including the use of existing and emerging technologies, that will reflect our considerations of our learners’ uniqueness while also increasing the likelihood that their background knowledge and skills will also be tapped successfully [1]. Our programs are now global communities of learners who see each other as sources of knowledge and untapped resources for learning. This work presents the results of a course design with UDL that evolved over several years with an international demographic of learners. Results from the last two years are shared as an example of the implementation of UDL in course design, with data from the students’ evaluations of multiple sections of 2 graduate level courses.","PeriodicalId":90007,"journal":{"name":"Literacy information and computer education journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46131636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
