"This book offers a linguistic ethnographic account of secondary schooling in Umbria, Italy, examining the complex intersection of language, socioeconomic class, social persona, and school choice to provide a holistic portrait of the situatedness of student "success." The book explores the everyday sociolinguistic practices at the three types of Italian secondary schools in Umbria-lyceum, technical institute, and vocational school-and the language ideologies and de facto language policies associated with them. Leone-Pizzighella unpacks the ways in which students are socialized by both peers and teachers into specific academic discourses and specialized forms of knowledge throughout their school careers. In its close analysis of the microinteractional contexts of these classrooms, drawing on a corpus of naturally occurring classroom discourse, the volume illuminates the ways in which certain forms of talk are exalted while others policed and how students either submit to or resist the social labels ascribed to them. This account provides deeper insights into the ways in which educational institutions are constructed and maintained via talk. This book will be of interest to students and scholars interested in educational linguistics, linguistic anthropology, classroom discourse, language-in-education policy, and education policy"--

In den letzten Jahrzehnten hat die Forschung die verschiedenartigen individuellen und sozialen Erträge der Hochschulbildung dokumentiert. Die Realisierung dieser Erträge wird jedoch in vielen Ländern durch hohe Abbruchquoten und lange Studiendauern beeinträchtigt. Bei der Untersuchung der Ursachen für fehlenden Studienerfolg verweist die neuere Literatur auf die entscheidende Rolle von sogenannten ``behavioral biases'' und den daraus resultierenden Bedarf an Maßnahmen, die diese ausgleichen. Vor diesem Hintergrund untersucht diese Dissertation die Wirksamkeit mehrerer kostengünstiger und ei...

The r between varying degrees of student success & 2 diff types of student characteristics was investigated: (1) background (age at matriculation, sex, father's occup, father's educ'al attainment, mother's educ'al attainment, hometown size, & HSch grade point average); & (2) academic orientation. The relationship between student success & certain types of reference group support was also studied but results are reported elsewhere (W. T. Gustavus, "Successful Students and Dropouts: An Investigation into Reference Group Support and Student Attrition," unpublished paper read at the annual meetings of the Southwestern Sociol'al Society [see SA E8035/SWSA/1971/0104]). 3 diff groups of students were studied: dropouts (N=122), readmitted students (N=186), & successful students (N=234). Very few diff's emerged among the 3 groups re background characteristics. Only father's educ'al attainment was found to be signif'ly related to degree of success: the fathers of readmitted students & dropouts had higher educ'al attainments than the fathers of successful students. When the 3 groups were compared as freshmen & sophomores, the readmitted & successful students were generally more academically motivated & vocationally committed than the dropouts. When the same groups were compared as juniors & seniors, the same trend was found, with the readmitted students being even more motivated & committed than their younger counterparts. By controlling for yr in Coll, it was possible to elaborate what otherwise would have amounted to another traditional comparison between total success or total failure & obtain a more realistic picture. Further res on attrition with the sample of readmitted students is suggested. 3 Tables. M. Maxfield.
