Teacher input is rarely solicited to determine the perceptions of teachers regarding their…

Impacting Attitudes of ELL Students: Integrated Learning Communities in Introductory Science Courses
Fayon, Annia K.; Goff, Emily; Duranczyk, Irene M. – Learning Assistance Review, 2010
In large introductory science courses at the postsecondary level, there is significant anecdotal evidence of traditionally underrepresented students disengaging from the lectures, resulting in withdrawals or failures.

In this paper, we propose that learning in engineering involves taking on the discourse of an engineering community, which is intimately bound up with the identity of being a member of that community. This leads to the notion of discursive identity, which emphasises that students' identities are constituted through engaging in discourse. This view…
