【讲座内容】
English literacy has historically meant reading and writing in Standard English. A cosmopolitan orientation to literacy education suggests that while reading and writing in Standard English, students will unavoidably interact with diverse dialects and languages. Further, they will encounter diverse cultural discourses and, through deep engagement with these discourses, potentially form affinity with the communities and groups behind these discourses. This cosmopolitan orientation demands that we develop students’ ability to deeply engage with diverse cultural discourses in Standard English, other dialects, and other languages, leading to what I call transliteracy development. Ultimately, they should foster fluid, flexible cultural identities, resulting from the affinity cultivated in their interactions with people from different parts of the world. In my presentation, I will first introduce the notion of transliteracy. Then, drawing on examples from a university-level English writing course offered in China, I will explain how a cosmopolitan perspective can facilitate multilingual students’ literacy development across languages and cultures.
