Britton and Austen Publish Research on How Student’s Values and Perspectives on Language Affect Their Writing in English

Emma R. Britton, a recent Ph.D. graduate and Theresa Austin, faculty member in the language, literacy, and culture concentration in the College of Education have published research into ethnolinguistically diverse students learning to write in English.

The TESOL Quarterly article captures how student’s idealized perspectives about native English speakers and about the nature of English language shape their learning.
