Abstract

The presentation works on the assumption that school is a space, where people with diverse language biographies and language repertoires come together, where language heterogeneity is lived in everyday life. The main aim of the contribution is to explore how the multilingual social spaces in schools are constituted. The results show that multilingualism is, to a certain extent, taken into account in the school, but, unfortunately, linguistic diversity is presented in a disconnected way according to the students and their languages.

Abstract (in Czech)

V prezentaci vycházíme z předpokladu, že škola je prostor, kde se setkávají lidé s různorodými jazykovými biografiemi a jazykovými repertoáry, a kde se v každodenním životě žije jazyková heterogenita. Hlavním cílem příspěvku je prozkoumat, jak jsou konstituovány mnohojazyčné sociální prostory ve školách. Výsledky ukazují, že mnohojazyčnost je ve škole do určité míry zohledňována, ale bohužel jazyková diverzita je vnímána bez ohledu na jazyky žáků.
