Book Synopsis Intercultural Communicative Competence for Global Citizenship by : Marina Orsini-Jones
Download or read book Intercultural Communicative Competence for Global Citizenship written by Marina Orsini-Jones and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work builds on the assumption that language learning and teaching needs to be made more relevant to the 'glocalised' digital world we live in. Its authors argue that staff in Higher Education (HE) must prepare students for effective online interaction and explores the digital, linguistic and critical intercultural components of ‘global citizenship’. The book pivots around an innovative research study; linguistic politeness frameworks are revisited to analyse the written online exchanges on an Online International Learning (OIL) - or intercultural telecollaborative - project between the UK and France.Through the use of cyberpragmatics, and inspired by Meyer and Land’s ‘threshold concept pedagogy’, the authors examine the challenges and solutions identified by an ‘expert student’ in managing rules of engagement and intercultural awareness when interacting online. This book will appeal to students and scholars of applied linguistics, education, sociolinguistics and intercultural communication, and provide a valuable resource for teacher trainers, language teachers and educators across the world.

Book Synopsis Ab Initio Language Teaching in British Higher Education by : Ulrike Bavendiek
Download or read book Ab Initio Language Teaching in British Higher Education written by Ulrike Bavendiek and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2022-12-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing extensively on the expertise of teachers of German in universities across the UK, this volume offers an overview of recent trends, new pedagogical approaches and practical guidance for teaching at beginners level in the higher education classroom. At a time when entries for UK school exams in modern foreign languages are decreasing, this book serves the urgent need for research and guidance on ab initio learning and teaching in HE. Using the example of teaching German, it offers theoretical reflections on teaching ab initio and practice-oriented approaches that will be useful for teachers of both German and other languages in higher education. The first chapters assess the role of ab initio provision within the wider context of modern languages departments and language centres. They are followed by sections on teaching methods and innovative approaches in the ab initio classroom that include chapters on the use of music, textbook evaluation, the effective use of a flipped classroom and the contribution of language apps. Finally, the book focuses on the learner in the ab initio context and explores issues around autonomy and learner strengths. The whole builds into a theoretically grounded guide that sketches out perspectives for teaching and learning ab initio languages that will benefit current and future generations of students.
Book Synopsis Empirical Studies in Didactic Audiovisual Translation by : Cristina Plaza-Lara
Download or read book Empirical Studies in Didactic Audiovisual Translation written by Cristina Plaza-Lara and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-26 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection showcases a wide range of empirical studies in didactic audiovisual translation (DAT), fostering replication of the present work to encourage future research and further expansion of DAT’s applications in language learning settings. The book seeks to offer a complementary perspective with the spotlight on empirical work, building on previous lines of inquiry rooted in descriptive analysis and the “experimental turn.” The volume is divided into three parts, aiming to bring together disparate studies from a range of classroom contexts and educational levels which draw on a mixed-methods approach in one place. The first part features research on captioning, or written language transfer, while the second includes on studies on revoicing, or oral language transfer. A final section looks at combined studies integrating both revoicing and captioning, while looking ahead to possibilities for new lines of empirically grounded research on the use of audiovisual modes at the intersection of translation and foreign language education. This volume will be of interest to students and scholars in audiovisual translation, translation studies, language education, and technology and language learning.
Book Synopsis Contextualised open educational practices by : Jako Olivier
Download or read book Contextualised open educational practices written by Jako Olivier and published by AOSIS. This book was released on with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers original research on the implementation of open educational practices through the use of open educational resources at the university level. The emphasis on open education in this book is on contextualising resources, supporting student agency and fostering self-directed learning specifically within a South African milieu. The envisaged chapters cover conceptual and review research and empirical work focussing on open educational practices and the use of renewable assessments. The work starts off with an overview of an institutional-wide open education project that prompted the research followed by research on open education in terms of various modules in the health science, music education, law, philosophy, dietetics, anthropology, French language learning, journalism and political science. There is a clear gap in the literature on open education in terms of open educational practices, specifically in terms of contextualising resources, supporting student agency and fostering self-directed learning in a South African context. Despite the existence of some general works on open education in terms of policy, social justice and open textbooks, this book will be unique in exploring the intersections of openness, specifically with contextualisation, student agency and self-directedness.
