Abstract

ABSTRACT This article describes the teaching practices of two K–12 English language teachers in the Philippines at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Data used in the study came from the interview of the two teachers, and a content analysis of some modules that they used. The study utilised Canagarajah’s critical pedagogy framework to describe the extent to which the teachers’ reported teaching practices, and the modules they used localised the teaching of English. Results revealed that teachers localised mostly in the level of content and strategies, but considered the language of the texts they used in the classroom to make sure that the meaning and form of the texts were accessible to their students. Moreover, localising was done only as ‘praxis’, and not as a ‘mode of inquiry’, so students were not made aware of their social positioning. Implications for curriculum design and teacher development programmes are discussed.

情境化和本地化学习:考察2019冠状病毒病大流行期间菲律宾多语种环境中两名英语教师的案例

本文描述了两名K-12英语教师在2019冠状病毒病疫情期间在菲律宾的教学实践。研究中使用的数据来自对两位老师的访谈，以及对他们使用的一些模块的内容分析。该研究利用Canagarajah的批判性教学法框架来描述教师报告的教学实践的程度，以及他们使用的英语教学模块。结果显示，教师主要局限于内容和策略的水平，但也会考虑他们在课堂上使用的文本的语言，以确保学生能够理解文本的意义和形式。此外，本地化只是作为一种“实践”，而不是作为一种“探究模式”，所以学生们没有意识到他们的社会定位。讨论了对课程设计和教师发展计划的影响。
