Summary

1. Within the fields of education and psychology, the role that discourse plays in social processes of learning and teaching has emerged as a critical empirical and theoretical question. Discourse, Learning, and Schooling explores theoretical and methodological relationships between children's discourse - or socially used language - and their learning in educational settings. The authors in this volume address a range of issues including literacy, authorship, the construction of the self, and classroom interactional processes. Individual chapters range from research studies of classroom discourse to essayist reflections on discourse and literacies. Collectively, these chapters reflect both sociocognitive perspectives on the relations between discourse, learning, and schooling and sociocultural perspectives on discourse and literacies among diverse cultural groups.
