Dealing with socially acute questions in the English-language classroom
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

In this article, I propose a toolbox that L2 teachers can draw from to nurture, facilitate, and foster constructive intercultural dialog when dealing with socially acute questions (SAQs) in the English-language classroom. Starting off with a case study describing a poorly managed racist incident that occurred in one of the author’s interfaculty conversation classes, the article provides insights into SAQs from Transdisciplinarity, Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), and the Pedagogy of Encounter. The article continues with an introduction to the concepts of Safe Spaces and Story Circles, and a reminder of the key concepts of Cross-Cultural Pragmatics. It aims at providing a SAQ toolbox that the L2 teacher can draw from to deal with SAQs in cross-cultural dialog situations they may encounter in their English-language classrooms, meeting the stakeholders’ (the L2 learners’ and teacher’s) academic expectations as well as emotional needs.

This video "Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes, 1909Đ1929: When Art Danced with Music" celebrates one of the most dazzling cultural enterprises of the twentieth century.

Combining Russian and Western traditions with a healthy dose of modernism, the company thrilled and shocked audiences with its powerful fusion of choreography, music, design and dance. Though it was based in Paris, the company toured throughout Europe, the United States and South America. Its influence continues to be felt today. A 28-minute video is available to watch online.
