This paper discusses issues surrounding the use of Australian Aboriginal English in the classroom in the light of a recent survey. AE is not ‘bad English’, ‘lazy English’ or ‘uneducated English’ to be corrected and eliminated. Registered in England & Wales No. I take the position that this recognition in schools depends to a significant degree on universities training their preservice teachers to recognise Aboriginal English as necessary to Aboriginal student learning and therefore as a legitimate dialect of the classroom, and this in turn requires universities to recognise the importance of Aboriginal English in their own curricula. However, we would suggest that there are a number of possible implications for both Dean and his teacher within the concept of the PLR (and more than mentioned here). * Views captured on Cambridge Core between . The suggestion is that such changes might make classrooms places that work for the Aboriginal students educationally, culturally and socially, and assist them to become confident and capable users of Standard Australian English. What this PEN intends, is to acknowledge the information that such resources are able to deliver, while also drawing attention more closely to how AE is played out in everyday classroom interactions between Aboriginal students and their teachers.

Aboriginal English in the Classroom 133 (2006: 60) maintains, making comparisons between learners’ first and second dialect is likely to help students notice features of the second dialect that are As illustrated by Lisa’s classroom responses, the typical news session within many classrooms can be very intimidating for many Aboriginal students, threatening risk and shame. It is the Baiyai image of the traditional Aboriginal meeting place that we are advancing as a metaphor for contemporary classrooms where Aboriginal learners and their teachers come together. Is the identification of different language tracks the same for Aboriginal students as it is for students from other cultural groups? Many Aboriginal students prefer not to be the centre of attention in the classroom. Consider these questions while thinking about classrooms you are familiar with: It is worth pausing here to note that because of language differences some students from other cultural groups find it difficult to pronounce certain letters but this is invariably not seen as careless or incorrect English. Berolah, Lorraine, Lilyjane Collins and Noel Crustaufo 1996.
