Constructing Multiple Subjectivities in Classroom Literacy Contexts
Sarah J. McCarthey
The University of Texas at Austin
Abstract
Demonstrates ways in which three students in a multi-age, literature-based grade 3/4 classroom constructed and reconstructed their subjectivities based on demands of the social setting. Notes that each student’s participation was influenced by gender, social class, ethnicity, and the task. Suggests that interpretations of students’ interactions provide opportunities for developing a more sophisticated approach to multicultural education.
