Making Signs, Translanguaging Ethnographies - Exploring Urban, Rural and Educational Spaces (Paperback): Ari Sherris,... Making Signs, Translanguaging Ethnographies - Exploring Urban, Rural and Educational Spaces (Paperback)
Ari Sherris, Elisabetta Adami
R950 Discovery Miles 9 500 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book is the beginning of a conversation across Social Semiotics, Translanguaging, Complexity Theory and Radical Sociolinguistics. In its explorations of meaning, multimodality, communication and emerging language practices, the book includes theoretical and empirical chapters that move toward an understanding of communication in its dynamic complexity, and its social semiotic and situated character. It relocates current debates in linguistics and in multimodality, as well as conceptions of centers/margins, by re-conceptualizing communicative practice through investigation of indigenous/oral communities, street art performances, migration contexts, recycling artefacts and signage repurposing. The book takes an innovative approach to both the form and content of its scholarly writing, and will be of interest to all those involved in interdisciplinary thinking, researching and writing.

Teaching Writing to Children in Indigenous Languages - Instructional Practices from Global Contexts (Paperback): Ari Sherris,... Teaching Writing to Children in Indigenous Languages - Instructional Practices from Global Contexts (Paperback)
Ari Sherris, Joy Kreeft Peyton
R1,326 Discovery Miles 13 260 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This volume brings together studies of instructional writing practices and the products of those practices from diverse Indigenous languages and cultures. By analyzing a rich diversity of contexts-Finland, Ghana, Hawaii, Mexico, Papua New Guinea, and more-through biliteracy, complexity, and genre theories, this book explores and demonstrates critical components of writing pedagogy and development. Because the volume focuses on Indigenous languages, it questions center-margin perspectives on schooling and national language ideologies, which often limit the number of Indigenous languages taught, the domains of study, and the age groups included.

Rejecting the Marginalized Status of Minority Languages - Educational Projects Pushing Back Against Language Endangerment... Rejecting the Marginalized Status of Minority Languages - Educational Projects Pushing Back Against Language Endangerment (Hardcover)
Ari Sherris, Susan D. Penfield
R4,055 Discovery Miles 40 550 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book explores Indigenous, tribal and minority (ITM) language education in oral and/or written communication and in the use of new technologies and online resources for pedagogical purposes in diverse geopolitical contexts. It demonstrates that ITM language education transpires in both formal and informal spaces for children or adults and that sometimes these spaces are online, where they become de-territorialized discourses of teaching and learning.' The volume brings together examples of ITM language education that are challenging the forces that flatten 'languacultures' into artefacts of history. It also examines the economic and material realities of the people who live in and through their 'languacultures', or who aspire to do as much. The book will be useful for educators and all those interested in Indigenous and minority language issues, as well as for a wide range of undergraduate, graduate and research contexts where topics of language education and minority rights are the focus.
