Book Synopsis The Language of Popular Science by : Olga A. Pilkington
Download or read book The Language of Popular Science written by Olga A. Pilkington and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-12-26 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you read (or write) popular science, you might sometimes wonder: how do the authors manage to make subjects that once put you to sleep in science class both so entertaining and approachable? The use of language is key. Based on analyses of popular science bestsellers, this linguistic study shows how expert popularizers use the voices and narratives of scientists to engage readers, demonstrating the power of science and portraying researchers as champions of knowledge. By doing so they often blur the lines between nonfiction and fiction, inviting readers to take part in thought experiments and turn ordinary scientists into omnipotent heroes.

Book Synopsis The Grammar of Thinking by : Daniela E. Casartelli
Download or read book The Grammar of Thinking written by Daniela E. Casartelli and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sentence (1) represents the phenomenon of reported thought, (2) that of reported speech: (1) Sasha thought: "This is fine" or Sasha thought that this would be fine (2) Sasha said: "This is fine" or Sasha said that this would be fine While sentences as in (1) have often been discussed in the context of those in (2) the former have rarely received specific attention. This has meant that much of the semantic and structural complexity, cross-linguistic variation, as well as the precise relation between (1) and (2) and related phenomena have remained unstudied. Addressing this gap, this volume represents the first collection of studies specifically dedicated to reported thought. It introduces a wide variety of cross-linguistic examples of the phenomenon and brings together authors from linguistic typology, corpus and interactional linguistics, and formal and functional theories of syntax to shed light on how talking about thoughts can become grammar in the languages of the world. The book should be of interest to linguists, philosophers of language, linguistic anthropologists and communication specialists seeking to understand topics at the boundary of stylistics and morphosyntax, as well as the grammar of epistemicity.

Book Synopsis Establishing Scientific Classroom Discourse Communities by : Randy K. Yerrick
Download or read book Establishing Scientific Classroom Discourse Communities written by Randy K. Yerrick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-12-13 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Establishing Scientific Classroom Discourse Communities: Multiple Voices of Teaching and Learning Research is designed to encourage discussion of issues surrounding the reform of classroom science discourse among teachers, teacher educators, and researchers. The contributors--some of the top educational researchers, linguists, and science educators in the world--represent a variety of perspectives pertaining to teaching, assessment, research, learning, and reform. As a whole the book explores the variety, complexity, and interconnectivity of issues associated with changing classroom learning communities and transforming science classroom discourse to be more representative of the discourse of scientific communities. The intent is to expand debate among educators regarding what constitutes exemplary scientific speaking, thinking, and acting. This book is unparalleled in discussing current reform issues from sociolinguistic and sociocultural perspectives. The need for a revised perspective on enduring science teaching and learning issues is established and a theoretical framework and methodology for interpreting the critique of classroom and science discourses is presented. To model and scaffold this ongoing debate, each chapter is followed by a "metalogue" in which the chapter authors and volume editors critique the issues traversed in the chapter by opening up the neatly argued issues. These "metalogues" challenge, extend, and deepen the arguments made. Central questions addressed include: *Why is a sociolinguistic interpretation essential in examining science education reform? *What are key similarities and differences between classroom and scientific communities? *How can the utility of common knowledge and existing classroom discourse be balanced toward alternative outcomes? *What curricular issues are associated with transforming classroom talk? *What other perspectives can assist in creating multiple access to science through redefining classroom discourse? Whether this volume improves readers' science teaching, assists their research, or helps them to better prepare tomorrow's science teachers, the goal is to engage them in considering the challenges faced by educators as they navigate the seas of reform and strive to improve science education for all.
Book Synopsis The Literature of Science by : Murdo William McRae
Download or read book The Literature of Science written by Murdo William McRae and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Each of the book's three sections addresses a distinct set of topics. The first section, concerned with language and rhetoric, discusses how scientific information can be mistranslated for nonscientific audiences, how scientists try to escape the constraints of their professional discourse, and how tropes shape scientific epistemology. The second section, which focuses on history, myth, and narrative, shows that the literature of science is shaped by our view of history, is the product of our culture's mythic and narrative practices, and is therefore subject to interpretive decoding. Centered on ideology and culture, the third section explains that the literature of science has at times advanced, but now seems ready to subvert, orthodox structures of knowledge and power. It goes on to suggest how the scientific and popular cultures can reach a better mutual understanding." "The Literature of Science represents a major effort to examine the central questions raised by the interaction of science and culture."--BOOK JACKET.
