Pedagogy in diverse secondary school classes: Legacies for higher education

As university teachers we find ourselves grappling with the increasingly diverse legacies of students’ prior pedagogic experiences – some of which seem to work against the quality intellectual outcomes now demanded from higher education. In this context, this paper reports a descriptive study of pedagogy created for Chinese students in a mainstream Australian secondary school with a high level of tertiary entry. An influential literature on student learning in higher education has pointed to the constraining effects of bothWestern and Chinese secondary schooling on university students’ learning. In the case of Chinese students who enter Western universities from Western secondary schools, the picture is complicated by research indicating that students of English as a Second Language (ESL) receive even more constraining forms of pedagogy than their native-English-speaking peers. A framework of Bernsteinian sociological concepts and discourse analytic concepts was employed in the study reported here to explore this possibility. Implications are drawn for managing the transition of ESL students to university contexts, and for reflecting on our own responses to linguistic and cultural diversity in the tutorial room
