Emma Trentman shares some Ideologies regarding language learning on episode 362 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode

When you take language out of its social context and it is decontextualized, then you lose sight of how that language is connected to its social context.

When you take language out of its social context and it is decontextualized, then you lose sight of how that language is connected to its social context.
-Emma Trentman

Rather than focusing on what language we are using, try focusing on how we are using language in particular social contexts.
-Emma Trentman

Note: Emma sent over a corrected pronunciation for Mike Mena’s name and we were unable to get it into the main episode audio. We hope people will check out his YouTube channel for both an accurate pronunciation, along with some excellent content from a linguistic anthropologist.
