Advocates for social justice for language minoritized populations around the worldThis book honors the impactful work of Terrence G. Wiley on advancing social justice in the areas of language diversity and language policy. It brings together a group of experienced scholars to provide an overview of research and progress in three areas: heritage and community language education, ideologies of language and literacies, and language policy. The chapters cover a wide range of formal and informal learning spaces and address language policies and practices from the national to the local levels. The international appeal of Wiley’s work is represented through the rich diversity of the contributing scholars and research contexts. With an emphasis on advancing scholarship and advocacy for language minoritized populations in the United States and around the world, this book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in the fields of language education, language policy and sociolinguistics.Contributors Kellie Rolstad, Wayne Wright, Na Liu and Jeff MacSwan: Preface 1.

Provides a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of young learners’ additional language learningThis book provides the first comprehensive overview of young children’s language learning in pre-primary and primary education. It collates research to date on language development and pedagogy among children learning a language in addition to their home language(s) in instructional settings, providing readers with a thorough understanding of the topic and directions for further study. The book promotes a learner-centered approach to research and teaching and encourages critical reflection on how best to conduct research among children. It recognizes the substantial diversity of young language learning experiences and pays attention to individual differences and variability in children’s language development, embracing an ecological perspective sensitive to contextual factors. Closing the gap between research and practice, each chapter opens with pedagogical or policy-related questions, explores relevant theories and research findings from instructed second language acquisition, and offers discussion questions and recommended reading for further reflection and study. This will be invaluable reading for all those who are undertaking research and working with young language learners.Abbreviations Introduction Chapter 1.

Adds significantly to our understanding of meaning makingThis book presents a pragmatic perspective on the development of intercultural communicative competence and intercultural understanding by language learners in the foreign language classroom and in study abroad contexts. Using data from role-play interactions, intercultural episodes and student reflections, including both US learners of Spanish and multilingual learners of other languages, the book examines how a focus on pragmatics and metapragmatic awareness aids the development of intercultural competence. It also addresses current topics such as intercultural impoliteness, the negotiation of and reflection on speech acts at the discourse level, pragmatic competence, agency and pragmatic resistance. The book concludes with a reflection on what it means to be an intercultural speaker along with suggestions for both teaching and assessment.Figures and Tables Acknowledgements Transcription Conventions Introduction Chapter 1.

Responds to the demand into more research on causes of stress and burnout among teachersThis book seeks to understand how language teachers regulate and use their emotions to best serve themselves and their students. It furthers research in the field by providing an in-depth theoretical discussion of emotion regulation alongside a comprehensive exploration in Japan. The study at the heart of the book focuses on three important features: the strategies language teachers employ to regulate their emotions, the motives that they regulate in aid of, and the various contextual factors shaping their strategy and motive decision-making. The findings reveal numerous ways that language teacher emotion regulation is empowered and constrained by identities, notions of good practice, critical experiences and external pressures. The book provides theoretical models of emotion regulation alongside recommendations for researchers, trainers and teachers who are interested in understanding more about the emotional dimension of the language classroom.Acknowledgements Copyright Notice Acknowledgement of Financial Support Figures and Tables Foreword Chapter 1.

Television Drama in Spain and Latin America addresses two major topics within current cultural, media, and television studies: the question of fictional genres and that of transnational circulation. While much research has been carried out on both TV formats and remakes in the English-speaking world, almost nothing has been published on the huge and dynamic Spanish-speaking sector. This book discusses and analyses series since 2000 from Spain (in both Spanish and Catalan), Mexico, Venezuela, and (to a lesser extent) the US, employing both empirical research on production and distribution and textual analysis of content. The three genres examined are horror, biographical series, and sports-themed dramas; the three examples of format remakes are of a period mystery (Spain, Mexico), a romantic comedy (Venezuela, US), and a historical epic (Catalonia, Spain).Acknowledgements Introduction: TV Nations Genres 1.

Let’s Talk. We will have you speaking Tagalog in no time! Lingo Jump's parallel audio language learning system makes it easy to learn languages at your leisure. Whether you're relaxing or on the go, our simple, clear, and fun audio lessons help you learn through imitation of our speakers.Listen and Learn. Through repetition of clearly pronounced words and phrases at a tempo that's easy to follow, you'll not only find it easier to understand and speak Tagalog, you'll also improve your memory, boost your listening skills, and pick up the correct accent. Our speakers follow a specific speech pattern throughout the audiobook, making phrases predictable, and helping you understand words and phrases through context.Talk Like a Local. We know that not everyone speaks in the same way. Dialects, tempos, and accents can vary among a country's regions, and even among quarters within a city. So when you start, you'll hear our audiobook narrators using different intonations of repeated phrases, slowing them down, speeding them up, and placing emphasis on different parts of the phrases.Lingo Jump’s unique parallel audio language learning system combines repetition, different speeds, and predictable speech patterns. Simply listening to the repeated Tagalog phrases helps you pick up languages by instinct. Lingo Jump is ideal to get beginners speaking a Tagalog almost immediately. As you progress, the parallel audio system has you repeat phrases at their natural tempo, removing the slower versions. You can put your newly acquired listening and comprehension skills to the test in the final chapters, where you’ll listen to the phrases without any parallel audio. We’ve designed the first two chapters so that they offer easy immersion. Our speakers break down each word into their distinct syllables and speak slowly. This helps you catch every nuance of the Tagalog language, making it easier for you to improve your listening and speaking skills all by yourself.

Addresses the pressing need to develop evidence-based teaching practices that lead to high-quality educationWith increasing mobility of people across the world, there is a pressing need to develop evidence-based teaching practices that lead to high-quality education, which serves the needs of inclusive societies and social and epistemic justice. This book presents cutting-edge qualitative case-study research across a range of educational contexts, research-method contributions and theory-oriented chapters by distinguished multilingual education scholars. These take stock of the field of translanguaging in relation to the education of multilingual individuals in today’s globalized world. The volume breaks new ground in that all chapters share a focus on teachers as ‘knowledge generators’ and many on teacher-researcher collaboration. Together, the chapters provide comprehensive and up-to-date applications of the concept of pedagogical translanguaging and present recent research in educational contexts that have hitherto received scant attention, namely secondary-level education, education for adult immigrants and the school-wide introduction of pedagogical translanguaging in primary school. Chapters 1, 3, 4 and 8 are free to download as open access publications under a CC BY NC ND licence.

Addresses the dual challenge of assessing content knowledge and language proficiency in multilingual classroomsThis book examines assessment, testing and evaluation within English-medium education contexts globally. It explores how assessments can effectively measure learning outcomes, integrating both content mastery and language proficiency in multilingual and multicultural classrooms. It features contributions from diverse experts worldwide and offers a comprehensive analysis of assessment practices, emerging trends and their implications for teaching and learning. The authors emphasise inclusivity, equity and effectiveness in English-medium instruction (EMI) assessment. The chapters address a range of topics within assessment, including designing assessments for both content and language goals; addressing challenges in EMI assessment; and incorporating emerging practices such as formative assessments and translanguaging. The book also discusses policy influences on EMI assessment, teacher assessment literacy and the role of innovative technologies like AI in EMI assessments. It provides practical examples and strategies, aiming to enhance EMI assessment practices and bridge the gap between theory and classroom implementation.Tables and Figures Contributors Acknowledgements Jack Pun, Samantha Curle and Pramod K.

We broke our new series on learning Farsi down into different learning stages. Start with the “Lower Beginner” books followed by the “Beginner” and “Upper Beginner” books. Next, progress to the “Intermediate” series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the “Conversations” series. This audiobook is divided into units. While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Farsi. The sample will give you a taste of what you can look forward to. In Unit 1 you will hear Farsi decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Farsi speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Farsi. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Farsi at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Farsi, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.Topics covered in this book:-Asking about family-Asking about relationship status-Expressing frequency-Talking about spare time activities and hobbies-Using quantifiers/determiners-Talking about preference-Talking about abilities-Talking about location of places-Describing appearance-Talking about personality-Talking about the weather-Talking about being ill

Underscores the need for more emotional reflexivity in language teachingPreviously, most studies in this area have focused on the reciprocal effects of language teachers’ emotions, identity, well-being and agency, with emotions often being portrayed as consequential entities. However, this book advances the field by exploring specifically how language teacher emotions can be used as tools for personal and professional development. The authors provide empirical, theoretical, conceptual and practical contributions which demonstrate how emotional responses provide data that can be analyzed and reflected upon and how emotions can be seen not as occurrences that are suffered, but as actions, judgments, choices, responsibilities and data that can be used to improve personal growth and professional lives. The chapters shed light on the potential of emotions as tools for teachers’ personal and professional development, such as, but not limited to, emotional literacy, emotional intelligence, emotional agility and regulation, emotional memory and self-exploratory and self-reflective inquiries.Contributors Acknowledgments Juyoung Song: Foreword Part 1: Establishing Teacher Emotions as Personal and Professional Development Chapter 1.

Bernard Barraud est né à Mont-de-Marsan (Landes), en 1961. Il a vécu une bonne partie de son enfance à Bourges (Cher), puis est arrivé à Nantes (Loire-Atlantique) où il réside toujours actuellement. Après des études de Lettres (en philosophie, linguistique, psychologie cognitive), il a enseigné auprès de publics très variés. Il est actuellement fonctionnaire territorial dans le secteur des solidarités humaines. Bernard Barraud a publié une trentaine de poèmes dans des revues, ainsi que sur des blogs. Traversée de mots est son deuxième livre. la foudre d’Alexandre s’abat-elle sur les étagères d’une bibliothèque ? Qu’est-ce qui se trame au dernier étage d’une tour carrée des îles Shetland ? Pourquoi des millions de mots meurent-ils chaque année ? Laissez-vous emporter par des histoires captivantes, des pensées éphémères et poétiques. Traversée de mots vous promet un voyage fantastique et extraordinaire, dans une réalité parallèle d’une logique implacable. Au rendez-vous, un humour iconoclaste qui secoue les certitudes, une magie des mots qui intrigue et une chorégraphie sémantique qui danse avec les subtilités de la langue. Par moments aussi, la mélancolie s’empare des mots, au détour d’une sombre actualité, pendant que des notes d’optimisme tentent de se faire entendre... Dans ce livre, poèmes, aphorismes, nouvelles s’y succèdent, tel un défilé de mots fantasques et tragiques, joyeux et mystérieux, aux frontières de la réalité et du rêve.
