Reimagining Dialogue on Identity, Language, and Power w/NYS TESOL Past President Dr. Ching-Ching Lin
Episode Summary:
Although Dr. Ching-Ching Lin has been a TESOL professional for many years, beginning her career as a high school teacher, she emphasizes her passion for using her knowledge to volunteer and make an impact that goes beyond teaching to opening up dialogues among her colleagues. One of the topics of those dialogues is the idea that we need to rethink how we conceptualize multilingual learners and our version of “helping” them. She says, “we need to reeducate ourselves in order to create an equitable space.” These are just a few of the notions she asserts during our conversation about her book “Reimagining Dialogue on Identity, Language, and Power”. Listen in as Dr. Lin takes us back to the prevailing issues of pandemic times to express her motivation for editing the book, and talks about the impact of dialogue in academic research.
RBERNing Questions for this Episode:
1- What was the inspiration behind the book you’ve edited with Dr. Clara Bauler, “Reimagining Dialogue on Identity, Language, and Power?”
2- What key takeaways can educators get from reading this book?
3- Chapter 7 is titled “Forming Performative Space through Legitimate Peripheral Participation: Digitally-Mediated Dialogic Inquiry of Four BIPOC TESOL Professionals.” Can you unpack this title for us and explain the process for data collection for this particular chapter and what makes it so unique?
