Stratégies d’orientation et d’insertion professionnelle des jeunes issus de l’immigration à Montréal : motifs de choix des institutions postsecondaires anglophones et francophones
|
| Abstract |
In Quebec, immigrant youths have to attend French primary and secondary schools according to government-imposed linguistic policies. However, at the postsecondary level, students are free to choose their language of instruction. The authors present the results of a qualitative research conducted with thirty-seven students from immigrant backgrounds who attended either French or English institutions at the college (CEGEP) and university levels. The authors' conclude that their qualitative analyses shows that linguistic academic choices are linked to the students' professional integration strategies. Thus, a strategic rationale mainly explains the linguistic choices these youths made. The reasons linked to a linguistic sense of belonging or to identity questions are almost absent in these youths' discourses. Likewise, the "expressive" dimension of school choices, based on self-fulfilment through education, is practically not mentioned by the youths.
