Judith Green is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus in the Department of Education, where she worked from 1990-2016. Her teaching and research focus on teaching-learning relationships, disciplinary knowledge as socially constructed, and ethnographic research and discourse studies of the patterns of everyday life in classroom. Questions that she explores in her research and in her classes include: How do children gain access to school knowledge? What counts as literacy and learning in school settings? How is disciplinary knowledge socially constructed? What opportunities for learning are constructed in classrooms, and who has access to these opportunities? How does the theory you select shape your research questions, the methods you use, and the claims that you can make about a phenomenon?

The ‘Translanguaging & Trans-Semiotizing Research Group’ Channel aims at building a Community of Practice (CoP) of both emergent and experienced scholars for academic exchange on Translanguaging and Trans-semiotising research and pedagogies. It serves as a bridge between theory and practice, an interactive platform for intellectual dialogues across different generations and diverse contexts, a space for imagination, criticality and creativity, and an innovative Public Pedagogy forum for 21st Century students, teachers and researchers.

Jay Lemke refs on themes emerging from our April 22 TL-TS Research Seminar

= this is a good introduction to a method of stimulating more productive dialogue, of the kind Eugene called “instrumental dialogue”, though I imagine it is really a mix of kinds.


Halliday, Michael. 1978. Language as Social Semiotic. London: Edward Arnold.
Halliday, Michael. 1985. An Introduction to Functional Grammar. London: Edward Arnold.

= these are the classic descriptions by Halliday of his notions of “metafunctions” (Ideational, Interpersonal-Attitudinal, and Textual) and of “register” (field of discourse, tenor of discourse, and mode of discourse); there are several later, revised editions of the 1985 book.


Bakhtin, Mikhail. 1935/1981. “Discourse in the novel.” In M. Holquist, Ed. The Dialogic
Imagination. Pp. 259-422. Austin TX: University of Texas Press.

= this is the best source for Bakhtin on “heteroglossia,” the part of his theory of discourse in literature that discusses the different social languages of different social groups or professions in society; for my interpretation of this, see my book Textual Politics (below)

Lemke, J.L. 1995. Textual Politics. London: Taylor & Francis.
= see chapter 2 and the beginning of chapter 3 for my interpretation of Bakhtin’s heteroglossia

Lemke, J. L. (1990) Talking Science: Language, Learning, and Values. Norwood, NJ: Ablex.

= my empirical study of science classroom dialogue, with an early version of social semiotics theory. The publisher has changed a few times over the years.

Lemke, J.L. 2015. “Feeling and Meaning: A Unitary Bio-semiotic Account.” In Trifonas, Peter Pericles (Ed.), International Handbook of Semiotics. [chapter 27]. Dordrecht, NL: Springer.

= the most complete version of my theory of “feeling-meaning”, taking them as two aspects of the same process

Pattern Recognition, Intersubjectivity, & Dialogic Meaning-Making in Education

Link to Abstract & Article :http://dpj.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/dpj…

Dr. Eugene Matusov is Professor of Education at the University of Delaware. He was born in the Soviet Union and studied developmental psychology with Soviet researchers working in the Vygotskian paradigm. He worked as a schoolteacher before immigrating to the United States. Now he investigates and works with sociocultural, Bakhtinian dialogic, and democratic approaches to education, and is editor of the research journal, Dialogic Pedagogy.

Dr. Jay Lemke is Professor Emeritus of the City University of New York. He was formerly Senior Research Scientist and adjunct Professor in the Department of Communication at the University of California, San Diego and in the Laboratory for Comparative Human Cognition. Prior to that he was Professor at the University of Michigan, working in the Ph.D. programs in Science Education, Learning Technologies, and Literacy Language and Culture. At the City University of New York he was Professor and founding Executive Officer of the Ph.D. Program in Urban Education and at Brooklyn College. His research interests span all these fields and work in social theory and social semiotics, discourse analysis, video analysis, multimedia studies, games research, and most recently the role of feeling in making meaning.

The ‘Translanguaging & Trans-Semiotizing Research Group’ Channel aims at building a Community of Practice (CoP) of both emergent and experienced scholars for academic exchange on Translanguaging and Trans-semiotising research and pedagogies. It serves as a bridge between theory and practice, an interactive platform for intellectual dialogues across different generations and diverse contexts, and an innovative Public Pedagogy forum for 21st Century students, teachers and researchers.

Upcoming Live Event, Critical Pedagogy in Hong Kong: Classroom Stories of Struggles and Hope

Please Click on the poster above to be directed to this YouTube Event. You may leave your questions down the comments below or on the YouTube Event Page.

In this conversation, Dr. Carlos Soto draws on his experiences over the last two decades working with youth of diverse backgrounds to explore what it means to be “critical”. We will consider questions such as: How might a critical stance change how we think about language, teaching, and research, and reshape our goals and practices. What ethical considerations do critical approaches raise? Ultimately, is criticality still relevant?

Dr. Carlos Soto is a Lecturer in the Faculty of Education at the University of Hong Kong. He began his career in education in the United States, where he worked in schools and the non-profit education sector. Since 2009, he has worked in Hong Kong’s dynamic education system as a teacher and researcher, focusing on developing critical educational practices. He is author of the book Critical Pedagogy in Hong Kong: Classroom Stories of Struggle and Hope (Routledge) and co-author with Dr. Miguel Pérez-Milans of another forthcoming book, Language, Ethnicity, and the Politics of Struggle: A Critical Ethnography of Activism (Multilingual Matters).

  1. Thanks for organising and hosting the symposium!! We were able to hv in-depth and thought provocative discussion which is not common at all even with colleagues in my corridor. I think I will explore more on meaning-feeling (and of course on drawing!). Please share with me when anyone of you hv further thought or reading materials on this aspect! I will post when I form some more views on this area.

  2. Great sharing of thoughts here! I will keep reading the posts here and interact with you all. A very meaningful meaning-making platform!
