In particular, it examines the impact of the increasingly sophisticated forms of...

ISBN: 9783039114344 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This study explores the field of ESL (English as a Second Language) classroom learning within a formal learning institution. Influenced by the sociocultural theory in SLA (Second Language Acquisition), the book sheds light on the question that has been boggling the minds of language practitioners and researchers: Why is ESL classroom talk the way it is? Based on a case study of a school in an ESL community, it argues persuasively that classroom talk may be linked in important ways to an operative sociocultural structure of ESL pedagogy over and above the classroom at the institutional level....

ISBN: 9783034312769 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 249 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume investigates the changes undergone by written communication in our globalized world as English as a Lingua Franca (ELF). The latter usually functions as a language for communication purposes, but also becomes a language for identification purposes. The study takes into account different web-genres: from the replication of existing genres in other media to cybergenres, whose key evolutionary force is the progressive exploitation of the new functionalities afforded by the new medium. The variety of the contexts of use has made it possible to consider different ELF-using communities...

Corpus Analysis for Descriptive and Pedagogical Purposes: ESP Perspectives
ISBN: 9783034315166 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. There is hardly any aspect of verbal communication that has not been investigated using the analytical tools developed by corpus linguists. This is especially true in the case of English, which commands a vast international research community, and corpora are becoming increasingly specialised, as they account for areas of language use shaped by specific sociolectal (register, genre, variety) and speaker (gender, profession, status) variables.
Corpus analysis is driven by a common interest in linguistic evidence, viewed as a source of insights into language phenomena or of lexical,... There is hardly any aspect of verbal communication that has not been investigated using the analytical tools developed by corpus linguists. This is es...

The Language of Thieves and Vagabonds
ISBN: 9783484309944 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 165 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The object of the volume is the analysis of the main dictionaries and glossaries of the canting language (the particular jargon spoken by thieves and vagabonds) that appeared in the 17th and 18th centuries. The scholars' attention has mostly concentrated on the earliest publications - particulary those appearing in the Elizabethan period -, while relatively little research has investigated subsequent canting dictionaries and glossaries. The aim of the present volume is to fill this gap. The main works on canting published in the 17th and 18th centuries are analysed in chapters 3 to 10. The...

Understanding Chinese Efl Teachers' Beliefs and Practices in the Textbook-Based Classroom
ISBN: 9783034330534 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Textbooks have long been considered a pivotal learning and teaching resource in classrooms. However, there is a paucity of research on how teachers use textbooks in relation to their beliefs, with analytic methods in such studies mainly restrained to content-based thematic analysis. To this end, from the perspectives of Halliday's (1994) systemic functional linguistics (SFL) and Vygostky's (1978) socio-cultural theory (SCT), this book explores how a Chinese college English teacher acts upon his beliefs and uses textbooks to mediate his students' English learning in his classroom. Drawing...

Academic Posters: A Textual and Visual Metadiscourse Analysis
ISBN: 9783034320832 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 367 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume presents a cross-disciplinary analysis of academic poster presentations, taking into consideration the text and visuals that posters display depending on the discipline within which they are created. As the academic poster is a multimodal genre, different modal aspects have been taken into consideration when analysing it, a fact that has somehow complicated the genre analysis conducted, but has also stimulated the research work involved and, in the end, provided interesting results.

The Semantic Salience Hierarchy Model; The L2 Acquisition of Psych Predicates
ISBN: 9783039113002 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This empirical study examines the learning problem of the argument structure of psych predicates such as -The dog frightens John- and the related V-ing adjectives such as -The dog is frightening to John-. The problem is theoretically interesting because of the marked nature of the thematic role mapping of these sentences in relation to the principle of the Uniformity of Theta Assignment Hypothesis (UTAH). The problem is highly relevant to our understanding of second language acquisition, as this is known to be a prevalent difficulty among language learners. The author has framed the learning...
