In recent years, an increasing number of linguists have re-examined the question of whether markedness has explanatory power, or whether it is a phenomenon that begs explanation itself. This volume brings together a collection of articles with a broad range of critical viewpoints on the notion of markedness in phonological theory. The contributions span a variety of phonological frameworks and relate to morphosyntax, historical linguistics, neurolinguistics, biolinguistics, and language typology.
This collection brings together research on linguistic prescriptivism and social identities, in specific contemporary and historical contexts of cross-cultural contact and awareness. Providing multilingual and multidisciplinary perspectives on both institutional and informal mechanisms of prescriptivism, our contributors relate language norms to frameworks of identity including citizenship, nativeness, ethnicity, politics, and empire.
Creating Success in the Classroom!: Visual Organizers and How to Use Them
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then visual frameworks may be seen as being useful teaching tools. Teachers can use these graphic organizers to demonstrate how ideas and information about a specific problem, passage, text, or unit of study is related and organized. This work introduces 12 visual frameworks, and describes and demonstrates how they can be used with the whole class, small groups, or individuals. Practical tips and specific examples from several curriculum areas are provided - assessment techniques are also covered.
