Those Who Know and Are Known: Students Using Ethnography to Interrogate Language and Literacy Ideologies

Abstract: Framing ethnography as a form of democratic inquiry, this study examines how the author worked with a group of Mexican and Vietnamese American adolescents to learn and apply ethnographic tools to interrogate language and literacy ideologies in their school and community.

Significant studies across English education, composition and writing research demonstrate the depth and historicity of some of those influences (Boyerin, 1993; Brandt, 2001; Brass, 2011a, 2011b; Ek, 2008; Elster, 2003; Han, 2018; Han and Varghese, 2019; Juzwik et al , 2020; Juzwik and Weyand, 2019; LeBlanc, 2017, 2018; Moss, 2003; Norton, 2008; Papen, 2018; Peshkin, 1986; Sarroub, 2002, 2005; Wong et al , 2013).
