All English Accents Matter In Pursuit of Accent Equity Diversity and Inclusion

All English Accents Matter In Pursuit of Accent Equity Diversity and Inclusion

Orelus' valuable study draws on the scholarly work of sociocultural and postcolonial theorists as well as testimonies collected from study participants to explore accentism the systemic form of discrimination against speakers whose accents deviate from a socially constructed norm. Orelus examines the manner in which accents are acquired and the effects of such acquisition on the learning and educational experiences of linguistically and culturally diverse students. He goes on to demonstrate the ways and the degree to which factors such as race class and country of origin are connected with nonstandard accent-based discrimination. Finally this book proposes alternative ways to challenge and counter the accentism that minority groups including linguistically and culturally diverse groups have faced in schools and in society at large. It will be of interest to all of those concerned with linguistic/accent-based prejudice and the experience of those who face it. | All English Accents Matter In Pursuit of Accent Equity Diversity and Inclusion

Georgian Houses for All

Georgian Houses for All

First published in 1978 Georgian Houses for All describes how little Gregorian houses came into being and how the original inhabitants used them. Gregorian houses at their smallest and simplest can be seen everywhere in the British Isles – detached semi-detached and joined together in terraces. There are probably still over a million of them built during a period of 130 years without the direct aid of architects. John Woodforde points out that an instinctive wish for a symmetrical front seems to be shown by young children’s drawings of houses these being generally balanced and orderly. The Georgians’ love of symmetry marked in their way of hanging pictures was part of a desire for private order amongst public disorder a desire to have one small sphere in which nature was fully controlled. John Woodforde reminds us that in the present-day return to terrace-house building the Georgian version remains a valuable guide. The book will be of interest to students of architecture urban planning and history.

Province and Politics in Late Imperial China Viceregal Government in Szechwan 1898-1911

Province and Politics in Late Imperial China Viceregal Government in Szechwan 1898-1911

First Published in 1984 Province and Politics in Late Imperial China presents analysis of one of the regional governments of China the administration of the Szechwan governor-general from its apogee at the end of the nineteenth century to its nadir in the revolution of 1911. The Szechwan governor – general not only ruled the one province of Szechwan but also exercised significant powers in Kweichow the Tibetan borderlands and parts of Yunnan and Hupei as well as playing a major role in imperial politics. He was therefore a regional and not simply a provincial figure while Szechwan was characteristic of the system of Chinese regions. This book seeks to show that the main threat to the dominance of the Szechwan governors – general came from their own modernizing activities; viceregal government broke down in the attempt to use traditional means to modern ends. In microcosm therefore Szechwan displays the pattern in both politics and ecology that was one of disruptive modernization in China. This book is an interesting read for scholars of Chinese history. | Province and Politics in Late Imperial China Viceregal Government in Szechwan 1898-1911

War Peace and Populist Discourse in Ukraine

War Peace and Populist Discourse in Ukraine

This book explores the detrimental effects on global peace of populism’s tendency to present complex social issues in simplistic good versus evil terms. Analyzing the civilizational discourse of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky with respect to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine—with his division of the world into civilized us versus barbarian them—the book argues that such a one-dimensional representation of complex social reality leaves no space for understanding the conflict and has little if any potential to bring about peace. To deconstruct the civilization versus barbarism discourse propagated by Zelensky the book incorporates into its analysis alternative articulations of the crisis by oppositional voices. The author looks at the writing of several popular Ukrainian journalists and bloggers who have been excluded from the field of political representation within Ukraine where all oppositional media are currently banned. Drawing on the discourse theory of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe the author argues that the incorporation of alternative perspectives and silenced voices is vitally important for understanding the complexity of all international conflicts including the current one between Russia and Ukraine. This timely and important study will be relevant for all students and scholars of media and communication studies populist rhetoric political communication journalism area studies international relations linguistics discourse analysis propaganda and peace studies. | War Peace and Populist Discourse in Ukraine

Letters Literacy and Literature in Byzantium

Letters Literacy and Literature in Byzantium

These studies look at general problems of reading Byzantine literature at literacy practices and the literary process but also at individual texts. The past thirty years have seen a revolution in the way Byzantine literature has been viewed: no longer is it considered a decadent form of classical literature or a turgid precursor of modern Greek literature. There are still prejudices to overcome: that there was no literary public or that Byzantium had no drama or humour but Byzantine texts are now read as literature in the social context of literacy and book culture. One genre is treated here more fully: the letter (Derrida said that letters represent all literature). In these studies epistolography is examined from the point of view of genre of originality of communication and as evidence for political history. Other genres touched on include the novel historiography parainesis panegyric and hagiography. The section on literary process includes essays on genre patronage and rhetoric and the section on literacy practices deals with both writing and reading. The collection includes one unpublished lecture which acts as introduction and additional notes and comments. | Letters Literacy and Literature in Byzantium

High-Impact ePortfolio Practice and Catalyst in Action Set

This set includes: High-Impact ePortfolio Practice and Catalyst in Action. Between them these two books by on the one hand providing the theory foundations and guiding principles for impementing ePortfolios and on the other providing concrete examples of implementation across institutional types and a wide range of programs provide faculty and administrators with a comprehensive roadmap to integrating ePortfolios in multiple settings at their institutions as a means to improve retention graduation and student engagement. Review of High-Impact ePortfolio Practice: “One of the main takeaways for me is that good ePortfolio work can be done effectively at any type of institution. Happily Eynon and Gambino explain how by illustrating the requisite steps and conditions to do ePortfolio well in the classroom and beyond. Moreover all students benefit especially those who are less well prepared for college which is one of the most important and necessary features of a high impact practice. The other noteworthy lesson for me personally is that the field now has another HIP to add to the officially approved list. My sincere thanks and congratulations to all those involved for producing this important work and providing the guidance the enterprise needs to strengthen undergraduate education and enrich and deepen student learning. Bravo. ”—George Kuh Senior Scholar National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment Chancellor’s Professor of Higher Education Emeritus - Indiana University Review of Catalyst in Action: “Catalyst in Action features twenty case studies from a diverse set of institutions extending from broad access community colleges through four-year colleges and major universities in the U. S. and abroad to graduate programs in education and divinity. Readers will find in these pages a wealth of new detail on the 'how' of institutionalizing ePortfolios from first year experiences and bridge programs to designs for entire programs to enhancements for high priority educational goals such as effective writing. ”—Carol Geary Schneider Lumina Fellow and president emerita of the Association of American Colleges and Universities A Co-Publication with AAC&U | High-Impact ePortfolio Practice and Catalyst in Action Set

Writing in-Between Collaborative Meaning Making in Performative Writing

Writing in-Between Collaborative Meaning Making in Performative Writing

Writing in-Between lies at intersections: between theory and praxis; between fiction and non-fiction; between author and reader; between the personal and the political. Beginning with a conceptual glossary that prepares readers for their journey through the book Dinesh offers two central texts to invite readers to become co-creators. The first F for _____ is written as an “academic novella” and culminates with an interactive section that is composed of guided invitations for the reader/co-creator. The second text Julys takes the form of a “dramatic memoir” and intersperses invitations for readers/co-creators between each of its chapters. Dinesh brings these threads together in an entirely interactive concluding chapter where her hopes for collaborative meaning making take centre stage. In all of its unique invitations to engage Dinesh’s readers/co-creators can either choose to craft their creations in personal notebooks or blank spaces in this work’s physical copy or to engage more publicly via virtual forums that can be accessed via QR codes and accompanying links that are scattered throughout the book. Guided by questions about writing can “do” — questions that have shaped Dinesh’s work as an artist scholar and educator for almost two decades — Writing in Between embodies one central tenet: that the significance of performative writing might be most powerfully experienced through a collaborative process of meaning making between a text’s author and its readers turned co-creators. | Writing in-Between Collaborative Meaning Making in Performative Writing

Literacy Essentials Engagement Excellence and Equity for All Learners

In her practical and inspirational book Literacy Essentials: Engagement Excellence and Equity for All Learners author Regie Routman guides K-12 teachers to create a trusting intellectual and equitable classroom culture that allows all learners to thrive as self-directed readers writers thinkers and responsible citizens. Over the course of three sections Routman provides numerous Take Action ideas for implementing authentic and responsive teaching assessing and learning. This book poses a key question: How do we rise to the challenge of providing an engaging excellent equitable education for all learners including those from high poverty and underserved schools? Teaching for Engagement: Many high performing schools are characterized by a a thriving school culture built on a network of authentic communication. Teachers can strengthen classroom engagement by building a trusting and welcoming environment where all students can have a safe and collaborative space to grow and develop. Pursuing Excellence: Routman identifies 10 key factors that describe an excellent teacher ranging from intellectual curiosity to creativity and explains how carrying yourself as a role model contributes to an inclusive caring empathic and fair classroom. She also stresses the importance for school leaders to make job-embedded professional development a top priority. Dismantling Unequal Education: The huge gap in the quality of education in high vs low income communities is the civil rights issue of the 21st century according to Routman. She spells out specific actions educators can take to create more equitable schools and classrooms such as diversifying texts used in curriculums and ensuring all students have access to opportunities to discuss reflect and engage with important ideas. From the author I wrote Literacy Essentials because I saw a need to simplify teaching raise expectations and make expert teaching possible for all of us. I saw a need to emphasize how a school culture of kindness trust respect and curiosity is essential to any lasting achievement. I saw a need to demonstrate and discuss how and why the beliefs actions knowledge we hold determine the potential for many of our students. Equal opportunity to learn depends on a culture of engagement and equity which under lies a relentless pursuit of excellence. | Literacy Essentials Engagement Excellence and Equity for All Learners

Bicycle Justice and Urban Transformation Biking for all?

Bicycle Justice and Urban Transformation Biking for all?

As bicycle commuting grows in the United States the profile of the white middle-class cyclist has emerged. This stereotype evolves just as investments in cycling play an increasingly important role in neighborhood transformations. However despite stereotypes the cycling public is actually quite diverse with the greatest share falling into the lowest income categories. Bicycle Justice and Urban Transformation demonstrates that for those with privilege bicycling can be liberatory a lifestyle choice whereas for those surviving at the margins cycling is not a choice but an often oppressive necessity. Ignoring these invisible cyclists skews bicycle improvements towards those with choices. This book argues that it is vital to contextualize bicycling within a broader social justice framework if investments are to serve all street users equitably. Bicycle justice is an inclusionary social movement based on furthering material equity and the recognition that qualitative differences matter. This book illustrates equitable bicycle advocacy policy and planning. In synthesizing the projects of critical cultural studies transportation justice and planning the book reveals the relevance of social justice to public and community-driven investments in cycling. This book will interest professionals advocates academics and students in the fields of transportation planning urban planning community development urban geography sociology and policy. | Bicycle Justice and Urban Transformation Biking for all?
