Описание: While there are volumes that fall into the category of children's literature, there appears to be relatively few that explore the needs of bilingual learners and the linguistic and sociocultural context of Latino children's literature. This volume makes a needed contribution by addressing the social, cultural, academic, and linguistic needs of Latino bilingual learners who are still underserved through current school practices. We aim to conceptualize different forms of social knowledge so that they can serve as cultural resources for learning, acquiring knowledge, and transforming self and identity. This volume presents a balance of theory, research, and practice that speak to authentic multicultural Latino literature and helps ensure its availability for all students. The intended outcome of this volume then is to create a heightened awareness of the cultural and linguistic capital held by the Latino community, to increase Latino students' social capital through the design of critical pedagogical practices, and for the formulation of a new perspective, that of Latino multicultural literature for children.

Описание: Measuring research impact and engagement is a much debated topic in the UK and internationally. This book is the first to provide a critical review of the research impact agenda, situating it within international efforts to improve research utilisation. Using empirical data, it discusses research impact tools and processes for key groups such as academics, research funders, ‘knowledge brokers’ and research users, and considers the challenges and consequences of incentivising and rewarding particular articulations of research impact.It draws on wide ranging qualitative data, combined with theories about the science-policy interplay and audit regimes to suggest ways to improve research impact.

Описание: This monograph is not only the first comprehensive grammar of Papapana (a previously undocumented and under-described endangered language) but the first full reference grammar of any Oceanic language of Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, despite this region displaying considerable linguistic innovation and language contact phenomena with numerous typologically significant features. This book describes Papapana on various levels, including phonology, morphology and syntax in noun phrases and the verb complex, and syntax at the clause- and sentence-level. Throughout the grammar, the described phenomena are related to the current research on typological and Oceanic linguistics. Typologically unusual features of Papapana include multiple reduplication, inverse-number marking in the noun phrase and postverbal subject-indexing. The book also describes the sociolinguistic and historical context within which Papapana is spoken and highlights linguistic changes resulting from language contact. The monograph fills an important gap in terms of grammatical descriptions of Bougainville Oceanic languages, and makes a significant contribution to the field of Oceanic linguistics, and to future comparative linguistic and typological research.
Автор: Stephen L. Fisher, Barbara Ellen Smith Название: Transforming Places: Lessons from Appalachia ISBN: 0252036662 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780252036668 Издательство: Marston Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 100320.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In this era of globalization`s ruthless deracination, place attachments have become increasingly salient in collective mobilizations across the spectrum of politics. Like place-based activists in other resource-rich yet impoverished regions across the globe, Appalachians are contesting economic injustice, environmental degradation, and the anti-democratic power of elites. This collection of seventeen original essays by scholars and activists from a variety of backgrounds explores this wide range of oppositional politics, querying its successes, limitations, and impacts. The editors` critical introduction and conclusion integrate theories of place and space with analyses of organizations and events discussed by contributors. Transforming Places illuminates widely relevant lessons about building coalitions and movements with sufficient strength to challenge corporate-driven globalization.

When the world seemed so perfect; family, friends, career. Life tries to mock us with unimaginable things which will happen in just a blink of an eye. Never did I think that the life I am living on will turn out to be the life I never imagined it to be. I was a happy woman who always thinks that "Youth is a state of mind". Working as a hair designer is something that I wanted to do aside from taking care of my dying husband and my kids. I always do things in accordance to my faith in God. However, my life changed after being admitted to having a brain aneurysm, I thought that I would lose my eyesight because of it, just like my sister. But I experienced more painful and most depressing - "A man-made stroke". I questioned God, I lost faith to him and also to humanity after experiencing the bottom rock of life. The irony of life has been chasing after me, indeed. As I started to move forward from all the pain my life has had. A piece of very sad and painful news - I didn't see coming, my sister Barbara, died because of a heart attack. Everyone was mourning, I was anxious and felt all the pain that has been lurking in my heart. I believe that people will not only learn out from direct experience but also from the experiences of others. I don't want people to go through the portal of pain and uncertainties to learn. This story; My Story is a piece of medicine that will help readers accept that everything happens for a reason: feel the pain, cry like a wolf, start to move forward, learn from those experiences, smile like nothing happened, praise the Lord with all your heart and expect that something might happen in just a blink of an eye.
