Adaptation to schooling and life: Mainland Chinese and South Asian teenage immigrant students in Hong Kong. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2012 (has links)
本論文探討來自中國內地和南亞國家的少年移民學生如何適應香港的教育和生活。他們是香港兩大移民群體,儘管他們的族群和文化背景截然不同,香港人一般都認為他們落後和貧困,與香港社會格格不入。本研究旨在了解他們的求學道路和身份建構過程。而在社會化的討論背景下,求學道路和身份建構是兩個相互關聯、相互重疊的概念。田野調查在香港四所收了大批移民學生的中學進行,時間由幾個月到一年多不等。 / 本研究發現,雖然兩組學生的背景不同,在香港的教育制度下,他們面對相似的限制及不利因素。本文指出,教師認為這兩組學生有類近的學習問題,但卻成因各異,教師亦對自己可以起的作用有不同看法。以上種種皆會影響青少年作為社會成員的身份認同。本文又指出,這兩組學生,在不同程度上自稱是香港的一份子。然而,他們的理由不一,理解也不盡同。 / 在學校層面發生的事情是重要的,因為它反映了在社會層面,大家如何界定誰是社會成員,如何在不同的歷史、文化和社經環境下,轉變想法和做法,以及社會和個人如何在過程中互動。在當前全球化的時代,人口遷移不斷影響世界各地的社會經濟和人口結構。本文提出一個新的角度,以重新思考移民和教育的理論。 / This thesis explores the immigration and schooling experiences of the teenage children of immigrants of the two largest incoming groups to Hong Kong: from Mainland China and from South Asia. Most people in Hong Kong think that both groups are culturally backward and economically impoverished, which means that both do not fit in, despite the fact that they have utterly different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. I seek to understand the factors that are shaping their educational pathways and identity formation, which I consider to be two interrelated and overlapping concepts against the backdrop of socialization. Data are largely drawn from ethnographic fieldwork, from a few months to more than a year, in four secondary schools in Hong Kong which admit a large number of immigrants. / I argue that despite their different backgrounds, both groups of students face very similar structural constraints and disadvantages in Hong Kong’s education system. I also argue that teachers perceive very similar learning problems in these two groups of students, but they see the problems to have stemmed from different causes, and have different understandings how much teachers can do. This has implications on the teenagers’ identities as members of society. I further argue that both groups, albeit to different extents, claim their belonging to Hong Kong in terms of their identity. However, they seem to base their claims on different grounds, and have different understandings of their belonging to Hong Kong. / What goes on in the classroom is important because it reflects in the larger society how people understand and practice who they include and who they exclude; how the ideologies and practices at work change in different historical, cultural, and socioeconomic contexts; and how individuals negotiate the shaping and the inclusion or exclusion. My thesis adds a new perspective for us to rethink theories of migration and education in an era of globalization when the mass movement of people is defining and redefining the socioeconomic and demographic landscapes in many parts of the world. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Chee, Wai Chi. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2012. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 383-415). / Electronic reproduction.
