[PLing] Reminder: Parental engagement and multilingualism: analyzing identity constructions, talk by Valéria Schörghofer-Queiroz

[Khoi Nguyen]

Dear colleagues,


Just a little reminder, or in case you missed it: on the *27th of 
November, 1pm in Seminarraum 2 in Sensengasse 3A, *there will be a talk 
by Valéria Schörghofer-Queiroz (Zentrum für Lehrer*innenbildung, 
University of Vienna) entitled:

/*Parental engagement and multilingualism: analyzing identity 
constructions*/

A brief summary:

Parental engagement is considered a multidimensional construct, 
understood to be a key factor to support students in their learning 
processes, and, therefore, associated with pupils’ good performance in 
school. However, for multilingual families with a migration history, 
parental engagement can pose unique challenges. Drawing on Norton’s 
(2013) concept of investment and a notion of identity that considers its 
intersection with capital and ideology (Darvin & Norton, 2015), in this 
dissertation assumes that if social practices are perceived as 
exclusionary, they may affect how multilingual parents negotiate their 
identity within society, their perceived right to speak within the 
school community, and their possibilities of parental engagement. The 
goal of this study is to understand how multilingual parents construct 
their identity in the context of parental engagement, taking into 
consideration how capital and ideological aspects are intertwined in 
this process. In this presentation, a special focus for the discussion 
will be given to the theoretical framework as well as some emerging 
findings.


We'd love to see you there and feel free to share with anybody who might
