      abstract = {This volume explores the nature of discourse in secondary  and upper elementary mathematics and science classrooms.  Chapters examine conditions that support or hinder teachers  and students, in particular language learners, in employing  language as a tool for learning. The volume provides rich  oral and written language examples from a range of  classroom contexts to illustrate how linguistic practices  affect students' appropriation and display of disciplinary  specific knowledge. Chapters further explore linguistic  practices through with the support of discourse analytic  models that foreground the authentic classroom data with  the aim of understanding the dynamics of the classroom. The  authors investigate the intersection between discourse and  learning from a range of perspectives, including an  examination of key concepts such as intertextuality,  interaction, mediation, scaffolding, appropriation, and  adaptations. This volume offers concrete suggestions on how  teachers might benefit from a discourse approach to  teaching in the areas of mathematics and science.},
