IV. Match the following to the scholar who would most likely agree
- We must not assume learning a new language is always necessarily neutral; it can change your thinking for the worse. _Cohn
I think this question was the most challenging; Tan and Adnan both discuss how learning and using a given language cha nges you and can often result in less access to socio -cultu ral worlds. But they never suggest that these languages change your thinking for the worse. Only Cohn does this when she directly claims that learning technostrategic language changed her thinking such that she no longer saw the human suffering behind nuclear arms deci sions; her thinking about the issue of nuclear power changed for the worse (according to her values at least) when she used this language that abstracted and minimized the human cost.
We must be free, and the best way to be free is to think for yourself. _Kant
We must be free, and the best way to be free is work together with others. Freire
(I gave you 2 points if you answered “Azevedo & Gonçalves”; they don’t explicitly discuss liberation the way Freire does, but since Freire ’s notion of literacy is critical to their ideas, I think this is an okay secondary answer.)
We must not assume learning a new language is always necessarily neutral; non- native languages can be imposed on children of a colonized country to promote the power of that country. Adnan
We must be free, and the best way to be free is to actively notice the world around you Perec__
