While there are volumes that fall into the category of children's literature, there appears to be relatively few that explore the needs of bilingual learners and the linguistic and sociocultural context of Latino children's literature. This volume makes a needed contribution by addressing the social, cultural, academic, and linguistic needs of Latino bilingual learners who are still underserved through current school practices. We aim to conceptualize different forms of social knowledge so that they can serve as cultural resources for learning, acquiring knowledge, and transforming self and identity. This volume presents a balance of theory, research, and practice that speak to authentic multicultural Latino literature and helps ensure its availability for all students. The intended outcome of this volume then is to create a heightened awareness of the cultural and linguistic capital held by the Latino community, to increase Latino students' social capital through the design of critical pedagogical practices, and for the formulation of a new perspective, that of Latino multicultural literature for children.

Die Beitrage des Bandes sind im akademischen Kontext Deutsch als Fremdsprache verankert und stellen Aspekte heraus, die in der Diskussion zum didaktischen Potenzial von Kulturellem Gedachtnis und Erinnerungsorten bisher wenig Beachtung fanden. Dazu gehoert die Erweiterung des geschichts- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Gedachtnisdiskurses um sprach-, literatur- und kulturdidaktische Elemente ebenso wie seine Differenzierung fur konkrete akademische Konstellationen. Aus der Perspektive des Faches Deutsch als Fremdsprache werden binationale und globale, parallele, geteilte und gemeinsame Erinnerungsorte, das erinnerungspragende Potenzial von Medien und literarischen Texten im Besonderen sowie konkrete Erinnerungsbestande des 20. Jahrhunderts in ihrer hochschuldidaktischen Relevanz thematisiert.

Dieses Buch ist ein Beitrag zu den intensiv gefuhrten Diskussionen uber die Beschreibung des Gegenstandsbereichs Sprache fur den Fremdsprachenunterricht. Seit der Jahrtausendwende mehren sich seitens der didaktisch interessierten Sprachforschung im In- und Ausland verstarkt Stimmen, welche die ausschliessliche Ausrichtung des DaF-Unterrichts an der Schriftsprache bezweifeln. Sie fordern die Fachgemeinschaft zu UEberlegungen auf, welche Normen und Varietaten der deutschen Sprache in den unterschiedlichen Vermittlungskontexten von Sprache einzubeziehen sind. Die Autorin moechte die Relevanz der Vermittlung gesprochener Sprache im germanistischen Sprachunterricht herausstellen und damit eine breite Diskussion uber theoretische und methodische Grundsatzfragen der UEbertragung der linguistischen Erkenntnisse in die philologische Sprachpraxis entfachen wie auch eine Debatte uber das Design der philologischen Sprachausbildung anregen.

"All these white schools I've been sent to are racist," Sonya says. "I'd have done better in a black school. I was an outsider here." These are hard words for Vivian Paley, whose own kindergarten was one of Sonya's schools, the integrated classroom so lovingly and hopefully depicted by Paley in White Teacher. Confronted with the grown-up Sonya, now on her way to a black college, and with a chorus of voices questioning the fairness and effectiveness of integrated education, Paley sets out to discover the truth about the multicultural classroom from those who participate in it. This is an odyssey undertaken on the wings of conversation and storytelling in which every voice adds new meaning to the idea of belonging, really belonging, to a school culture. Here are black teachers and minority parents, immigrant families, a Native American educator, and the children themselves, whose stories mingle with the author's to create a candid picture of the successes and failures of the integrated classroom. As Paley travels the country listening to these stories, we see what lies behind recent moves toward self-segregation: an ongoing frustration with racism as well as an abiding need for a nurturing community. And yet, among these diverse voices, we hear again and again the shared dream of a classroom where no family heritage is obscured and every child's story enriches the life of the schoolhouse. "It's all about dialogue, isn't it?" asks Lorraine, a black third-grade teacher whose story becomes a central motif. And indeed, it is the dialogue that prevails in this warmly provocative and deeply engaging book, as parents and teachers learn how they must talk to each other, and to their children, if every child is to secure a sense of self in the schoolroom, no matter what the predominant ethnic background. Vivian Paley offers these discoveries to readers as a starting point for their own journeys toward community and kinship in today's schools and tomorrow's culture.

Situated within the interrelated disciplines of sociolinguistics and sociology of language, this book explores the language use and attitudinal perceptions of a sample of 130 adults who received Gaelic-medium education (GME) at primary school, during the first years of that system's availability in Scotland. As the first students to have attended GME are now in their late 20s and 30s, this volume offers a timely examination of the long-term outcomes of the system in its earliest years, and of the future prospects for Gaelic language maintenance and revitalisation in Scotland. The book presents in-depth discussion and analysis of narratives in order to demonstrate former Gaelic-medium students' present-day relationships to the languages they speak, offering fascinating insights into the possible reasons - historical, ideological and personal - for these relationships. This book presents the first open assessment of the outcomes of Gaelic-medium education in Scotland, and offers suggestions for individuals and policymakers seeking to revitalise languages internationally.

Authoritative and accessible, this book introduces the theory and practice of teaching writing to students of EFL/ESL learners. While assuming no specialist knowledge, Ken Hyland systematically sets out the key issues of course design, lesson planning, texts and materials, tasks, feedback and assessment and how current research can inform classroom practice. This second edition is completely revised to include up-to-date work on automated feedback, plagiarism, social media, Virtual Learning Environments and teacher workload issues. It takes the clear stance that student writers not only need realistic strategies for drafting and revising, but also a clear understanding of genre to structure their writing experiences according to the expectations of particular communities of readers and the constraints of particular contexts. Review exercises, reflection questions, plentiful examples and a new extensive glossary make the book invaluable to both prospective and practicing teachers alike.

Im Mittelpunkt der Publikation steht die Untersuchung einer gymnasialen Behandlung Margaret Thatchers in Zeiten von Neoliberalismus, "Brexit" und nationalem Populismus. Der Autor argumentiert fur die Behandlung Thatchers, da diese globale Themen pragnant aufgreift und das im Englischunterricht weiterhin bedeutsame zielkulturelle Verstandnis Grossbritanniens gewahrleistet. Die Arbeit beschreibt dabei das fur die historische und politische Kulturvermittlung notwendige Zusammenspiel der Didaktiken in einem facherubergreifenden oder bilingualen Unterricht. Der Autor prasentiert das Modell einer "semiotischen kulturellen Kompetenz", tatigt eine grundlegende Auseinandersetzung mit den relevanten Aspekten des Kulturunterrichts und arbeitet Unterrichtsbeispiele aus.

Fur eine erfolgreiche Integration in das deutsche Bildungssystem benoetigen neuzugewanderte Kinder und Jugendliche eine gezielte Foerderung in Deutsch als Zweitsprache. In vielen Schulformen werden hierfur separate Klassen eingerichtet, die einen UEbergang der Lernenden in den Regelunterricht vorbereiten und begleiten. Obwohl der Unterricht in solchen Klassenformaten hohe und gleichzeitig sehr spezifische didaktische Anforderungen an die unterrichtenden Lehrkrafte stellt, existieren bis heute nur wenige passgenaue Angebote zur gezielten Weiterbildung. Das Buch setzt an dieser Ausgangslage an und prasentiert neben theoretischen Grundlagen fur die Arbeit in schulischen DaZ-Klassen auch konkret verwendbare Unterrichtsentwurfe.

Their focus is on the expanding role that collaboration between the public and private sector has come to play in the governing of schools, children, and families in response to an array of worldwide economic and social changes. The contributors to this volume highlight the new relationship between civil society and the state through partnerships and what that linkage has come to mean for an array of educational issues including academic achievement, school governance, school parent-relationships, teacher education, the construction of family and community involvement, and the discourses of reform as practices that order participation and action.
