Guest Speakers:
Dr. Patricia (Patsy) Duff is a Professor of Applied Linguistics and Distinguished University Scholar in the Department of Language and Literacy Education at the University of British Columbia. Patsy’s main scholarly interests are related to language socialization across bilingual and multilingual settings; qualitative research methods in applied linguistics (especially case study and ethnography); issues in the teaching, learning, and use of English, Mandarin, and other international and heritage languages in transnational contexts.
Masaru Yamamoto is an Applied Linguist and a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Language and Literacy Education at the University of British Columbia. His research interests include multilingual socialization, language learner identity and agency, (dys)investment, and (non-)participation in postsecondary settings, integrating ethnographic case study and other methodological approaches, such as multimodal interaction analysis and social network analysis.
Host: The Research Engagement and Collaboration Hub (REACH), the Department of Language and Literacy Education, Faculty of Education, University of British Columbia.
Host in This Episode:
Ziwen Mei is a Ph.D. Candidate in Language and Literacy Education at the University of British Columbia. Her work focuses on multilingual and multicultural education, particularly with children and families from disadvantaged backgrounds. Her doctoral research examines family language policy, deterritorialization, and the intersections of social class and rural–urban labour migration in China.
This episode grows out of the earlier REACH workshop, “Multiscalar approaches to ethnographic research in applied linguistics: Focal activities, discourse and analysis,” where Dr. Patricia Duff and Masaru Yamamoto helped push the conversation forward and deepen the themes we explored together. We’re thankful for their role in co-designing and leading that session, and for shaping the dialogic space that now enables this extended conversation.
