Keynote: Joan Kelly Hall - How Current Understandings of Language and Culture (should) ...

ICC 2014 Keynote: Joan Kelly Hall (Pennsylvania State University), "How Current Understandings of Language and Culture (should) Inform L2 Pedagogy" In this presentation, Dr. Hall aims to lay out the major underpinnings of contemporary thought on two concepts considered to be at the heart of L2 pedagogy: language and culture, and consider their implications for L2 pedagogy. Current views consider language to be fundamentally dynamic, provisional, grounded in and emergent from its locally situated uses in culturally framed and discursively patterned communicative activities. Culture is considered to be equally dynamic, comprised of constellations of dispositions and expectations that are continually recreated in the myriad intellectual and practical communicative activities constituting our daily lives. After presenting an overview of current understandings, Hall will explore implications for language pedagogy with a specific focus on dialogic inquiry, a pedagogical approach that considers teaching and learning to be an integrated, collaborative and purposeful process of knowledge construction. She will conclude with specific recommendations for redesigning L2 classrooms. This address was co-sponsored by the Center for Advanced Language Proficiency Education and Research (CALPER) at Pennsylvania State University. The University of Arizona is committed to ensuring an accessible and inclusive experience for students, employees and all who use University technology and resources.
