description: This text presents directions in classroom education generated by using ethnography and sociolinguistics as teaching tools, the theory behind these efforts, and the classroom practices involved. Chapters provide an introduction to ethnographic and sociolinguistic research, highlight the integration of students as researchers of culture and language in their own communities with concerns for academic learning, describe projects in which students studied language as sociolinguists, and describe how students' research on issues of culture and language was either a part of or led to their taking social action.
