Abstract This one-year qualitative study examined the role Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies (Paris, 2012; Paris & Alim, 2014) had on secondary pre-service teachers in an urban school. This study examined the journey of six pre-service urban high-school teachers in Arizona as they enact Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy (CSP) in a year-long student teaching residency. Pre-service teachers worked with and learned from English Language Learners in various contexts. Factors that influenced their CSP practices are discussed through themes that emerged from interviews and classroom observations.
这项为期一年的定性研究考察了文化维持教学法的作用(巴黎,2012;Paris & Alim, 2014)对城市中学职前教师的影响。本研究考察了亚利桑那州六名职前城市高中教师在为期一年的学生教学实习中实施文化持续教学法(CSP)的过程。职前教师与不同背景下的英语学习者一起工作并向他们学习。影响他们CSP实践的因素通过访谈和课堂观察中出现的主题进行讨论。
