摘要

摘要作为全球教育产业的一部分，国际文凭（IB）在世界各地的教育体系中发挥着重要作用。尽管对IB的赞美之词比比皆是，但对它的了解仍然模糊而肤浅，主要依赖于IB组织或其附属机构提供的信息。为了对IB现象有新的认识，本研究结合语料库语言学和批判性话语分析，考察了IB在世界各地非IB生成数据中的表现。基于语言选择不是随机的，意义与单词的使用方式密切相关的原则，一个2300万字的全球新闻文章语料库和草图引擎，对典型性模式进行了分析，以揭示与IB相关的理所当然的价值观。研究结果表明，以高度积极的措辞谈论IB的霸权方式与围绕其他教育系统的相应不足话语相联系。

The discursive representation of the International Baccalaureate in the global press: a computer-assisted discourse analysis

ABSTRACT As part of the global education industry, the International Baccalaureate (IB) plays an important role in education systems around the world. Although laudatory descriptions of the IB abound, knowledge about it remains vague and superficial, relying predominantly on information produced by the IB organization or its affiliates. To gain fresh insight into the IB phenomenon, this study combines corpus linguistics and critical discourse analysis to examine representation of the IB around the world in non-IB generated data. Based on the principle that choice in language is not random, meaning is intimately connected with the way words are used, a 23 million word corpus of global press articles and Sketch Engine, patterns of typicality are analyzed to uncover values associated with the IB that are taken for granted. Findings show hegemonic ways of talking about the IB in highly positive terms tied to corresponding discourses of deficiency surrounding other education systems.

期刊介绍： Discourse is an international, fully peer-reviewed journal publishing contemporary research and theorising in the cultural politics of education. The journal publishes academic articles from throughout the world which contribute to contemporary debates on the new social, cultural and political configurations that now mark education as a highly contested but important cultural site. Discourse adopts a broadly critical orientation, but is not tied to any particular ideological, disciplinary or methodological position. It encourages interdisciplinary approaches to the analysis of educational theory, policy and practice. It welcomes papers which explore speculative ideas in education, are written in innovative ways, or are presented in experimental ways.
