Description
In Canada, as is true in several other countries and educational jurisdictions, language and identity are at the forefront of both educational debates and policy development in various governing bodies, such as the classroom, schools, school boards, postsecondary institutions, provincial, territorial and federal ministries, as well as arms-length and nongovernmental agencies (NGOs). Policymaking and implementation decisions occur at micro and macro social levels within each of these contexts. This double special issue of the Canadian Journal of Education (RCE/ CJE 33[2] and [3]) presents findings of original research in Canada since 2000 on language, identity, and educational policy from a variety of theoretical perspectives, including sociolinguistics, psychology, higher education, sociology of education, policy studies, second language education. We aim to interest a wide readership of researchers, educators, and policy makers, in the hope that the studies presented will encourage and foster a trans-disciplinary dialogue.
