ABSTRACT

Language policy is an influencing factor of the educational outcome for pupils in Africa. Colonial languages have been largely used and African Languages are neglected. Despite this, the South African Constitution (1996) declares eleven official languages. However, curricular developments favour Afrikaans and English. To analyse the implementation of the official language policy, we focus on Limpopo Province. Over 1000 questionnaires were answered by teachers. This approach aimed to analyse the language practices and language attitudes of teachers. Schools in Limpopo showed significant differences between the official language policy and the daily language practices. Some teachers implement the official language policy; others use one or more African languages in their oral communications during the lessons in the form of Code Switching. This is seen in relation to the contemporary debates regarding translanguaging as an educational pedagogy.

南非林波波公立学校教育者的隐性语言政策潜力(未使用)

摘要

语言政策是影响非洲学生教育成果的因素。殖民地语言已被广泛使用,而非洲语言则被忽略。尽管如此,《南非宪法》(1996年)还是宣布了11种官方语言。但是,课程发展有利于南非荷兰语和英语。为了分析官方语言政策的执行情况,我们关注林波波省。老师回答了1000多个问卷。这种方法旨在分析教师的语言习惯和语言态度。林波波(Limpopo)的学校在官方语言政策和日常语言习惯之间显示出显着差异。一些老师执行官方语言政策;其他人在课程中以代码切换的形式在口头交流中使用一种或多种非洲语言。
