Author and Teacher Trainer Katherine Rilley explores the role of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) in English language teaching and materials. Katherine explains how CDA can help educators identify hidden meanings, assumptions, and power dynamics within their teaching materials so we can make changes that foster a more inclusive and supportive environment.Watch with closed captions here.Understanding Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA)CDA is an approach that examines how language and imagery in teaching materials can shape social realities, reinforce stereotypes, and influence ideologies. Katherine emphasises the importance of ensuring materials reflect diverse voices, backgrounds, and experiences.Gender and Stereotypes in TextbooksKatherine shares examples of how textbooks can reinforce outdated gender roles, such as referring to professionals as "policemen" or "firemen" instead of using gender-neutral terms. She discusses how such representations can limit students' perceptions of their future potential.Adapting Materials for InclusivityKatherine stresses that no single textbook can fully meet the needs of all learners. Teachers should adapt materials to reflect different cultures, abilities, and perspectives. She encourages educators to use inclusive visuals, update resources, and incorporate diverse voices.Actionable Steps for TeachersKatherine's top tips for educators:Evaluate your materials to ensure they are inclusive and cater to all students' needs.Research to find materials that promote diversity and foster greater diversity and inclusion.ABOUTKatherine Reilly is an ELT Teacher Trainer and Author of numerous publications in children's literature, teaching materials and ICT.

Identity in Times of Crisis, Part IV: Identity, Language and Culture Summary In this episode, we dive into the relationship between identity, language, and culture, ‎exploring how language shapes and constructs our understanding of the world rather ‎than merely reflecting it. Drawing on thinkers like Wittgenstein, Derrida, etc, we unpack ‎the idea that identity is a discursive construct, brought into being through the ‎processes of language and thought. We challenge traditional concepts, such as ‎Descartes' "I think, therefore I am," and discuss how meaning is inherently unstable, ‎constantly shifting through language. Critical Discourse Analysis helps us explore these ‎linguistic structures and their influence on society. Join me as we delve into these ‎thought-provoking ideas, and don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments ‎below!

Welcome to another episode of The Words Matter Podcast.Thanks again to all of you that are supporting the podcast via Patreon – your support is making these episodes and this qualitative research series possible. And you can visit the Patreon here if you'd like to support the show.So, we're up to episode seven of this qualitative research series, and today I'm speaking with Dr Anna Rajala about critical theory.Anna originally trained as a Physiotherapist (Pirkanmaa University of Applied Sciences in Finland), and then pursued Master of Art's in Philosophy, Politics and Economics of Health (UCL in London).She recently completed her PhD in Humanities, at the Centre for Applied Philosophy, Politics and Ethics, at the University of Brighton, UK. Her thesis analysed the relationship between theory and practice of the critical theorist Theodor Adorno's  philosophy and her work re-reads the relationship in the context of ethical theories and concepts used in physiotherapy.Anna is currently working as a Researcher in the Academy of Finland funded project Assembling Postcapitalist International Political Economy at Tampere University in Finland, in which she is analysing global physiotherapy discourses on dementia, politics, and economics. She is Co-chair of Critical Physiotherapy Network, co-Editor-in-Chief of the peer-reviewed journal of the Finnish Death Studies Association, and co-founder of a mental health physiotherapy webpage. Read more about Anna's work in her blog hereAnna's research interests include German and French philosophy, medical humanities, ethics, politics of affect, and philosophy and global political economy of dementia, mental health, incontinence, and rehabilitation.She has published on the embodied value of long-term care and critical physiotherapy ethics, and she is currently preparing both single- and co-authored publications on Critical Discourse Analysis and diverse economies of dementia rehabilitation, deconstructive readings of incontinence-related political economy, and a critical reading of Shakespeare's character Richard III.So she perfectly qualified to walk us through critical theory.In this episode we speak about: Critical theory as a framework for pursing qualitative research (see book here by Jerry Willis that we mention in our chat). The reach of critical theory into political, social and economic life. How qualitative research which is situated in critical theory looks to challenge the taken for granted assumptions, social norms and practices and the understanding of discourses and power inequalities. How critical theory is also critical of itself and has gone some way to evolving away from its Marxist roots. How critical research tries to go beyond merely describing the social world and its problems but has a moral focus on change, action and emancipation as a result of the knowledge it generates. Finally Anna shares some of her own research using her critical theory lens and offers advice for those wanting to begin to explore and think with critical theory (see here). So this was such an interesting and enlightening conversation with Anna. As you'll hear, I was somewhat daunted by the theoretical, social and political weight and breadth of critical theory and I was concerned I would feel like a child lost in an amusement park when trying to convey its history and relevance to qualitative work – but fortunately Anna held my hand firmly and skilfully guided me through the conversation.While we didn't dive deep into critical theory, as we would have never likely never surfaced – I think that we covered sufficient ground to introduce some of its major premises and positions and hope it provide an entrance point for those wanting to learn more – I know it certainly did for me.Find Anna on Twitter @AnnaIlonaRajala  You can support the show and contribute via Patreon hereIf you liked the podcast, you'll love The Words Matter online course and mentoring to develop your clinical expertise  - ideal for all MSK therapists.Follow Words Matter on:Instagram @Wordsmatter_education @TheWordsMatterPodcastTwitter @WordsClinicalFacebook Words Matter - Improving Clinical Communication★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

In addition to talking about their own journey to becoming critical scholars, Jamila and Ashley talk to us about the importance of centering voices and perspectives that have been traditionally marginalized in the academy. Their work builds a pathway forward for rigorous data analysis that will shape future generations of critical scholars. After an overview of the book and its contribution, Ashley and Jamila each summarize their chapters. Ashley’s chapter applies Habermas’ theory of colonization of the lifeworld to the analysis of for-profit television advertisements. She talks about why it is important to study the for-profit sector in higher education, how she transcribed and coded the advertisement, and what this technique allows us to understand about how for-profit sectors are shaping the higher education system. Jamila’s chapter uses tweets from Black Twitter and the #BlackWomenAtWork hashtag. She tells us the inspiration for her inquiry, how she applies Critical Discourse Analysis and W.E.B. Du Bois’ theory of double consciousness to code and interpret tweets, and what this analysis contributes. These are just two examples of the range of data sources and theories that authors use in the book, with other chapters analyzing syllabi, photos, interviews, and political campaign speeches. The book came together as a result of a graduate-level seminar taught by Rachelle Winkle-Wagner, and Jamila and Ashley talk about what it was like to be involved as both editors and writers in the project. They describe how they worked with authors, provided feedback, and humanized the writing and editing process, demonstrating yet another level of their scholarship.

Chris Sacca, activist investor, recently argued that Black Twitter IS Twitter. For example, African American usage of the service often dominates user metrics in the United States, despite their minority demographic numbers as computer users. This talk by André Brock unpacks Black Twitter use from two perspectives: analysis of the interface and associated practice alongside discourse analysis of Twitter’s utility and audience. Using examples of Black Twitter practice, Brock offers that Twitter’s feature set and ubiquity map closely onto Black discursive identity. Thus, Twitter’s outsized function as mechanism for cultural critique and political activism can be understood as the awakening of Black digital practice and an abridging of a digital divide. André Brock is an Assistant Professor of Communication Studies at the University of Michigan. Brock is one of the preeminent scholars of Black cyberculture. His work bridges Science and Technology Studies and Critical Discourse Analysis, showing how the communicative affordances of online media align with those of Black communication practices. Through December 2016, he is a Visiting Researcher with the Social Media Collective at Microsoft Research New England.

The Oregonian/2003 This week I discuss the branch of linguistics – Critical Discourse Analysis, or CDA – that most informs my approach to grammatically analysing texts. It’s the ‘critical’ part of CDA that appeals to me most – an aim of most practitioners of CDA is to explore the role language plays in maintaining or … Continue reading Episode 55: Critical condition

Critical Discourse Analysis has identified a number of (fallacious) argumentation schemes that reoccur in anti-immigration discourse and which serve strategically to legitimise restrictive immigration policies. In this paper, I argue that the move from the premise to the presupposed conclusion which realises such argumentation strategies in fact reflects adapted decision rules operationalised by a so called ‘cheater-detection’ module (Cosmides 1989). On this account, assertions in anti-immigration discourse provide the necessary input to the cheater-detection module to result in decisions in favour of discriminatory policies and practices. Persuasion, or perhaps even manipulation, is then not a matter of pragmatic reasoning processes but may instead involve the exploitation of evolved cognitive programmes. I show how assertions in anti-immigration discourse activate the cheater-detection module in a critical analysis of representations of immigrants and asylum-seekers in the British right-wing press.
