The influence of the idiom spoken by a linguistic community on educational practice

Uz navode iz sovjetske i talijanske metodičke literature, u radu je prikazano istraživanje u kome su učenici, studenti, nastavnici razredne nastave i hrvatskoga jezika očitovali svoju svijest o pripadnosti zavičajnome idiomu. Birali su jedan, dva, tri, a neki i četiri idioma, najčešće kombinacije dijalekata i narječja. Istraživanje je pokazalo da horizontalno distribuirani idiomi čine jezičnu osnovu na kojoj se razvija sposobnost komuniciranja u standardnome jeziku. Afirmira se pojam -školska jezična zajednica-. Naglašava se suodnošenje školske s društvenom jezičnom praksom i pledira za interdisciplinarna istraživanja školske jezične prakse te za znanstveno utemeljenje školske jezične politike.The author presents results of research in which secondary school and university students, elementary school teachers and Croatian teachers showed their awareness of belonging to their native idiom. They chose one, two, three or even four idioms, which were most often combinations of dialect and subdialect. The research showed that horizontally distributed idioms provide the linguistic basis for communicative competence in standard language. The concept of school linguistic community is affirmed. The relationship of school with social linguistic practice is pointed out, along with the need for interdisciplinary research on school linguistic practice and for scholarly establishment of school linguistic policy
