A Lawyer's Guide to Cross-Cultural Depositions (Interpretation and translation are complex processes that require in-depth knowledge of two languages and two cultures, as well as familiarity with specific vocabulary. Interpretation and translation are acquired skills of expressing and transferring ideas, formulated within the framework of a particular culture, in another language.) After English, what do you believe are the most frequently spoken languages in Boston?(Language Translation Survey Results from ResourceNet; Haitian Creole registers second with 52%; Cape Verdean Creole registers sixth with 28%) Competing Creole Transcripts on Trial(A paper by Peter L. Patrick & Samuel W. Buell. Abstract: A criminal prosecution of Jamaican Creole (JC) speaking `posse' (gang) members in New York included evidence of recorded speech in JC. Clandestine recordings (discussions of criminal events, including narration of a homicide) were introduced at trial. Taped data were translated for prosecution by a non-linguist native speaker of JC. Defense disputed these texts and commissioned alternative transcriptions from a creolist linguist, who was a non-speaker of JC. Prosecution in turn hired another creolist, a near-native speaker of and specialist in JC, to testify on the relative accuracy of both sets of earlier texts. Differing representations of key conversations were submitted to a non-creole speaking judge/jury, both linguists testified, and defendants were convicted. The role of linguistic testimony and practice (especially transcription) in the trial is analysed. A typology of linguistic expertise is given, and effects of the language's Creole status and lack of instrumentalization on the trial are discussed.)

Using Interpreters and Translators to Meet the Needs of Handicapped Language Minority Students and Their Families (By Sandra H. Fradd; Diane K. Wilen. NCELA Program Information Guide Series, Number 4, Summer 1990. From the Abstract: The value and importance of the services of persons who can communicate ideas and intents across languages and cultures has long been recognized. Formally trained interpreters are widely used today by international business. Interpreters for the deaf and hearing impaired have become commonplace. However, the training and use of interpreters and translators for working with limited English proficient (LEP) students and their families are still uncommon. The need for the services of trained interpreters and translators is apparent, and the importance of training in developing interpretative proficiency is well documented. The purpose of this guide is (1) to highlight the type of background and experience required of interpreters and translators working with special needs of LEP students and their families and (2) to emphasize the importance of training the interpreters and translators as well as those who use their services. By interpreter, we mean a person who translates orally; by translator, we mean a person who produces a rendering from one language to another in written form. Many of the skills needed by a translator also are needed by an interpreter; however, there are also some differences in the skills required. The interpreter requires skills in producing a meaningful live performance, while translators produce more precise written products. MM note: Haitian Creole scholar Roger E. Savain is quoted in several places within document.) |

Case Study: Haitian Bilingual Program: Graham & Parks School, Cambridge, MA (Graham and Parks School, a magnet school serving students from throughout the city of Cambridge, was a special place that developed superb programs for teaching science to students learning English. Graham and Parks had been led for nineteen years by the same principal who acted as a tremendous force for the school's educational vision. The district desegregation plan also shaped the school's program: parents of English-speaking students chose the school through a lottery system, while parents of Creole-speaking students chose the school because the district housed its Creole bilingual program there. The bilingual program served Haitian immigrant students from kindergarten through eighth grade. Through an active partnership with a non-profit educational research organization, TERC (Technical Education Research Corporation), teachers at the school provided a stimulating science program to Creole-speaking students. Most of the Haitian students at the school immigrated to the United States--with or without their immediate families--as a result of the political upheaval in their home country. The majority were very poor. When these children entered Graham and Parks School, some were malnourished; most were unschooled. As a rule, they had no literacy in Creole or English. They had experienced hunger and violence and many were separated from their closest relatives. Working with children who had been traumatized this way was challenging because they were often distracted by their fears and bad memories and seemed to have a sense of hopelessness about the future. On the other hand, and in sharp contrast to the suffering in these children's lives, was their apparent joie de vivre. In classrooms, on the school yard, and in the hallways, students exhibited an exuberant and joyful attitude toward life.)

It recommended developing processes which enable the tracking of literacy achievement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. The Bandscales for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Learners are adapted from the ESL Bandscales (McKay P., Hudson C. and Sapuppo M. (1994). In NLLIA ESL Development: Language and Literacy in Schools, National Language and Literacy Institute of Australia: Canberra), which monitor the reading, writing, listening and speaking developments of students. In 1997, a working party in Cairns adapted the Listening and Speaking Bandscales for Junior Primary Students and the latter were published in Torres Strait as the Oral Language Bandscales in 1998. In 1999, the Bandscales for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Learners (Reading and Writing) were developed for Junior Primary students. The Oral Language (Speaking) Bandscales were added to the website in 2001. During 2000-2002, the Middle Primary/ Middle Schooling Bandscales were developed for Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing. These Bandscales combine the developmental progression of Middle Primary (Year 4-5) and Middle Schooling students (Years 5-10). The adapted Listening Bandscales (Junior Primary) were redrafted and included to complete the Junior Primary package. In response to the high incidence of otitis media amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learners, hearing impairment strategies have been included to all of the Bandscales to support hearing impaired students.

The Present Chèche Konnen Center (A major focus of the Center's work is on students whose first language is not English. Over the years, we have collaborated with teachers in a variety of classroom settings that serve English language learners in both urban and rural districts: transitional, developmental and two-way bilingual and English as a second language (ESOL) programs. We have worked in Spanish, Haitian Creole, and Korean bilingual programs, and with ESOL programs that serve students from multiple language backgrounds. We have worked locally -- in the greater Boston area -- and nationally -- in Arizona, California, Illinois, and Texas.) Learning Experiences in ESL: Resource Guides (Includes lesson plan, suggested teacher and student activities, and some student feedback centered upon Tezen: A Haitian Folktale by Mimi Bartelmi (see pp 7-10 of PDF document); was submitted by Marie José Bernard, Haitian Creole Bilingual Teacher Community of the New York State Education Department) Learning Experiences in the Native Languages (Includes lesson plan, suggested teacher and student activities; features 4 languages: Spanish, Bengali, Haitian Creole and Chinese. See pp 10-13 of PDF document for the HC section "What's in a Name?" submitted by Amidor Almonord, Haitian Creole Bilingual Teacher Community of the New York State Education Department) Report from the Front Lines: What's Needed to Make New York's ESL and Bilingual Programs Succeed (Report published by Advocates for Children of New York; contains tables and statistics regarding number of Haitian and other foreign-born students enrolled in the NY school system) |
