Digital Genres, New Literacies and Autonomy in Language Learning
Author: María José Luzón
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443823619
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
The exponential growth in the amount and complexity of information transmitted and shared on the Internet and the capabilities afforded by new information technologies result in the continuous emergence of new genres and new literacy practices that call for new models of genre analysis and new approaches to teaching literacy and language, where language learning autonomy has to take centre stage. Any pedagogical approach which seeks to develop autonomy in online language learning should also be concerned with the development of new literacies, with raising an awareness of digital texts and with the cognitive processes learners engage in when constructing meaning in hypertext. The purpose of this volume is to lay the foundations for an approach to online language learning which draws on the analysis of digital texts and of the practices and strategies involved in using such texts. With this aim in mind, this book incorporates and draws relations between research on digital genres, autonomy, electronic literacies and language learning tasks, combining theoretical reflections with pedagogical research. The chapters in this volume, written by researchers from different academic traditions, report research concerning digital genres, new literacy skills and the design of webtasks for effective language learning. These chapters will be useful resources for researchers and doctoral students interested in the development of autonomous language learning in digital environments.

Manual of Romance Languages in Africa
Author: Ursula Reutner
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110626179
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 662
Book Description
With more than two thousand languages spread over its territory, multilingualism is a common reality in Africa. The main official languages of most African countries are Indo-European, in many instances Romance. As they were primarily brought to Africa in the era of colonization, the areas discussed in this volume are thirty-five states that were once ruled by Belgium, France, Italy, Portugal, or Spain, and the African regions still belonging to three of them. Twenty-six states are presented in relation to French, four to Italian, six to Portuguese, and two to Spanish. They are considered in separate chapters according to their sociolinguistic situation, linguistic history, external language policy, linguistic characteristics, and internal language policy. The result is a comprehensive overview of the Romance languages in modern-day Africa. It follows a coherent structure, offers linguistic and sociolinguistic information, and illustrates language contact situations, power relations, as well as the cross-fertilization and mutual enrichment emerging from the interplay of languages and cultures in Africa.

Langues à niveaux multiples
Author: Jacques Lerot
Publisher: Peeters Publishers
ISBN: 9789042914285
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : fr
Pages : 298
Book Description
La bibliographie de Jacques Lerot impressionne. Par son volume - tout au long de sa carriere, il a ete un auteur fecond - , mais aussi par sa qualite - ainsi, son Precis de linguistique generale (Paris, editions de Minuit, 1993) - et par l'ouverture d'esprit qu'elle manifeste. A l'occasion de son depart a la retraite, vingt et un amis - collegues de Belgique ou de l'etranger, anciens etudiants ou doctorants - se sont reunis a l'instigation de Heinz Bouillon pour proposer 18 articles, ecrits en francais, allemand, neerlandais ou anglais, quatre langues que Jacques Lerot pratique assidument. Comme les horizons de Jacques sont larges, les sujets etudies sont multiculturels, abordant des regions aussi bien proches que lointaines comme le Burundi ou Madagascar. Ils illustrent aussi la multiplicite des diverses approches possibles dans l'etude des faits de langue, passant de la linguistique a la litterature sans oublier la didactique. Dans sa vision scientifique, Jacques Lerot a toujours soutenu que toute explication avait sa place si l'on distingue des niveaux multiples. Gageons qu'il trouvera pour chacune des contributions ici offertes une belle place dans son systeme de pensee a lui.

African multilingualism and the Agenda 2030 / Multilinguisme africain et l'Agenda 2030
Author: Thomas Bearth
Publisher: LIT Verlag Münster
ISBN: 3643802811
Category :
Languages : fr
Pages : 328
Book Description
The UN Agenda 2030 read as an expression of a commitment to predefined goals, raises the question of a link, between failure to provide for needs of linguistic inclusion on the one hand and lingering deficits of adhesion on the other. Stated as a key factor for implementation sensitivity to language diversity correlates positively with inclusivity and sustainability, as this volume explains through case studies ranging from agriculture to health, education, human rights and ecology, and from digital inclusion to translation and science, thus enabling comparative advantages to turn language barriers into interfaces for `glocal' development.
