Language policy in education refers to the official rules governing language use in education systems. These policies vary between countries and within countries based on population language(s), history, culture, and politics. In India, language policy in education has been significant given its multilingual nature. Major education commissions and policies in India have recommended using regional languages as the medium of instruction up to grade 5 and introducing English and Hindi afterward to promote multilingualism and national unity while preserving cultural diversity. An effective language policy is important for equity, improved learning outcomes, multilingualism, cultural preservation, and social cohesion.

Socio political context of school subjectFousiya O P
This document discusses the socio-political context of school subjects. It notes that the approach to school subjects depends on different ideologies such as Plato's view of focusing on manual skills and crafts. Liberal and progressive views see education as developing the individual based on their interests and needs. School subjects should be based on social, cultural, and political phenomena. The document also outlines the structure of schooling in India from pre-school through higher education and discusses dichotomous views of schooling for university versus for everyday life.
The structural approach to teaching English focuses on teaching language structures like sentence patterns, phrases, idioms, and routines. It involves selecting and grading structures systematically and practicing them through drills. The approach aims to establish mastery over 275 essential structures and 3000 root words. It emphasizes oral skills and condemns formal grammar teaching. Some advantages are developing the habit of speaking English and automatically learning some grammar. Limitations include being mechanical, not considering learner capacity, and not providing guidance on presentation or exercises.

multilingual education in India:Language Barriers and Tribal Education: A Com...Bhaskar Reddy
India, a country renowned for its rich linguistic diversity—it has 22 official languages in addition to a plethora of regional and local dialects—faces a significant language barrier in the academic domain. This difficulty has significant effects on the educational paths of its varied students and connects strongly beyond national, tribal, and regional contexts. In the middle of this linguistic maze, the Indian government launched an innovative program called Multilingual Education that is intended especially for tribal groups across the country. The goal of this comprehensive study is to identify the fundamental linguistic problems that Indian tribal children encounter in the ever-changing context of multilingual education. The present study will be conceptual in nature. The study is based on analysing reviews available in online domains, such as; Journals, papers, articles, research reports, book chapters,websites, and other related secondary sources. Many Research had demonstrated that a crucial element in raising the educational attainment of students of minority is an education that starts in the mother tongue and develops proficiency in the second language before using it as the medium of instruction. This minimizes the linguistic and cultural barriers that students must overcome when they enter school. Beside that this exploration will help the educational policy makers and curriculum planers to make effective policy and curriculum by integrating tribal culture, language and values.
Keywords: Challenges in Tribal Education, Multilingual Education, Language Problems, Tribal Students, Tribal Education.
Some of the challenges of linguistic diversity discussed in this paper are:
Linguistic discrimination and marginalization: The paper argues that linguistic diversity is
often seen as a problem or a threat by dominant groups, and that linguistic minorities face
various forms of discrimination and marginalization in education, employment, media, and
public services.
Linguistic endangerment and loss: The paper warns that linguistic diversity is under threat
from the forces of globalization, urbanization, and assimilation, and that many languages are
endangered or extinct due to lack of support, recognition, and transmission.
Linguistic conflict and violence: The paper examines how linguistic diversity can be a source
of conflict and violence in multilingual societies, especially when language is linked to
ethnic, religious, or political identities and interests, and when linguistic rights are violated or
denied.
Linguistic complexity and communication: The paper acknowledges that linguistic diversity
poses challenges for communication and understanding across linguistic boundaries, and that
it requires linguistic competence, awareness, and sensitivity to deal with linguistic
complexity and diversity.
Linguistic diversity is the variety of languages spoken by different groups of people. It
reflects the rich and complex cultural heritage.
This document discusses effective early literacy instruction strategies for English language learners.

15046936 -teacher-training-in-tribal-areas-of-orissa-india-rupantar- (2) (1)Dr Mahendra K Mishra
The document discusses issues related to education of tribal children in India. It notes that over 60% of teachers in tribal areas are non-tribal and do not understand tribal culture and language. This leads to a mismatch between the teachers' values and the children's culture. As a result, learning is blocked and national education goals are not achieved. It emphasizes the need for a child-centered education in the tribal child's mother tongue. Teachers require training to understand tribal cultures and use participatory teaching methods that value the tribal experience and worldview. Overall, the document calls for reforming the education system to make it more responsive to the needs of tribal children.

Ken Cruickshank - Research on Languages in NSW SchoolsMLTA of NSW
The document discusses research being conducted on language programs and resources in Australian schools. The research involves mapping existing language programs, surveying school staff attitudes towards language learning, and conducting case studies of individual schools to understand factors that contribute to successful language programs. Preliminary findings from the staff survey indicate generally positive attitudes towards language learning, with exposure to languages through personal experience being the strongest predictor of support.
The document discusses mother tongue-based multilingual education (MTB-MLE). It explains that MTB-MLE uses the student's mother tongue and additional languages in the classroom. Students first develop a foundation in their mother language before adding other languages. The purpose is to develop cognitive and reasoning skills to operate in different languages. MTB-MLE provides a strong foundation in the first language and successful transition to additional languages to enable lifelong learning. It also maintains local culture while providing national language acquisition.

This document discusses considerations for promoting success for English language learners. It addresses defining bilingualism, the benefits of bilingualism for individuals and societies, and the effects of bilingualism on children according to research. While bilingual education has challenges in the U.S., the document outlines strategies like using students' native language in instruction, collaborative teaching, and challenging instruction to promote deep proficiency in both languages.
This document discusses mother tongue-based multilingual education (MT-Based MLE) in South Asia. It defines MT-Based MLE as using students' mother tongue and additional languages as languages of instruction in school. The rationale provided is that using children's mother tongue builds confidence and a strong educational foundation, while additional languages help build a bridge to other languages. Successful MT-Based MLE programs introduce additional languages orally before introducing literacy and use both the mother tongue and additional languages throughout primary school. Strong education policies that support linguistic diversity and MT-Based MLE are needed to ensure quality education for all students.
Mother Tongue Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) is an approach that uses the learner's mother tongue as the primary medium of instruction. It aims to develop literacy and mastery of content areas in the mother tongue before transitioning to additional languages like Filipino and English. MTB-MLE seeks to address issues like high dropout rates and functional illiteracy in the Philippine education system by building on the learner's existing linguistic skills and knowledge. It promotes multilingualism, cultural preservation, and stronger educational outcomes compared to systems that use the learner's non-native language from the start.
Provides a brief overview of the historical and legal perspectives on bilingual education in the United States. Also includes challenges, students and teachers face as well as possible supports teachers can use when working with English Language Learners (ELLs).
India has the largest tribal population in the world, about 8.5 crore people. Many tribal children face difficulties in school because instruction is often not in their native language. While some government schemes aim to improve tribal education, problems remain at multiple levels including the school system, curriculum relevance, teacher quality, and socioeconomic barriers facing tribal communities. Effective solutions require addressing issues related to policy, planning, implementation, and aligning education with tribal cultures and environments.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

1. Challenges in Multilingual Education
Some Critical Questions
Views from the field

2. Consider
• In New York city schools 47 % children in primary
schools are non-white
• In London 30 % children in primary schools are
from Asia ( Tamil, Punjabi, Bengali, Hindi)
• In Gadchiroli – about 60 % children are tribal and
they don’t understand Marathi,
• In Bastar , 70 % children don’t understand
classroom language in class I – III
• In Odisha about 8 lakh tribal children don’t
understand Odiya in primary schools
• African countries revealed that their primary
education is failing in mostly tribal areas
3. Why ?
• Language of children is different from the language
of teaching/ text book
• Medium of instruction is the state official language
which does not help the linguistic minority children
• Curriculum and text books are uniform and unsuitable for
diverse group of children
• Teacher education is silent about the language
pedagogy( most of the children fail in language- let alone to
speak of language of science and math..
They take shelter of rote memory ..(abhikriyatmak
rasayan,bichhedan, bighatan,swasan,many more….)
4. • Language as the marker of capturing and
perpetuating knowledge has many thing to
contribute to learning of the children .
• In fact experience is not instrumental to
learning but experience itself is learning.
• Children learn with this world without a threat
of watchful eyes, but in an environment where
re-cognition is attached to life.
• In the school some authority is teaching them
Experiential learning
5. • IN what language the children learn?
• What is the context of a subject or topic of a text book
when we teach? Do these texts represent the everyday
life experience of the children?
• Do the children able to think in a language that they
don’t practice in their home?
• Do the teachers speak in the language that children
understand? in what language we teach the children?
• Do the teachers’ feel that the scientific languages of
math and science are intelligible to the students?
Some thoughts….
6. Two situation
• Situation- 1
Children don’t know my language , How can they
learn. I am not responsible for their failure.
• Situation – 2
I don’t know the children’s language and culture
How can I teach them?
which one is child centric?
8. 8
Results…
• High dropouts
• Low achievement
• Failure in achieving national goal
• Loss of human resource
• Increase in social discrimination
• Blocking education and literacy
• Non participation of community
• Violation of children's linguistic and cultural right
9. 9
Constitutional Obligations

Weaker sections of the society (SC & ST)
• Art.350-A – Adequate facilities for instruction in mother
tongue at the Primary stage of education to children of
Linguistic Minority groups

Quotes from the National Curriculum
Framework - 2005
• Language of the children :
• The mother tongue is a critical conduit () for enabling children to
construct their own knowledge. Foreword, page 4)
• Cultural context of the children:
• curricula, syllabi, and textbooks should enable the teacher in
organizing classroom experiences in consonance with the child’s
nature and environment, and thus providing opportunities for all
children. (Executive Summary, page 8)
11. RtE - 2009
Art29 Mother tongue should be imparted to
children as far as practicable
12. SSA Goal
Education for equity of access to equity of opportunity and equity of out
come(dalits,girls,adivasi,minorities, CWSN,urban deprived children,migrants
children)
Education for quality - better pedagogical input in teaching learning process (
not counting the incentives)
MLE in Odisha
SSA Odisha adopted tribal education in 10 languages from class I to Class V
from 2006-07 till now 544 schools
32000 Tribal children
873 teachers from tribal communities
Now on 31st July Govt. of Odisha adopted more 1000 schools and posted
5000 tribal teachers in MLE schools
13. Dantewada- 78%, Bastar 66 %
Jashpur :63% Kanker: 56%
Sarguja 55% Korea 44 %
Besides some small groups are scattered
Literacy 52 %( MP)
31 tribes- literacy highest 33 % lowest 19%
Chhatishgarhi language spoken by about 2crores people belong to Indo Aryan
language group
Can we ignore these language resources of the children and claim child
centred pedagogy( CCP)?
Can we say that CCP is possible with out a communicative language of the
children?
Is it not true that language of TB is teacher centric? Or even pedo-centric?
