  • Looking for Parametric Correlations Within Faroese Höskuldur Thráinsson University of Iceland
    Looking for parametric correlations within Faroese Höskuldur Thráinsson University of Iceland Abstract: This paper first reviews some parameters that have been suggested to account for variation within Scandinavian, focussing for concreteness on the parameters proposed by Holmberg and Platzack (1995) and Bobaljik and Thráinsson (1998). As this review shows, Faroese is not as well behaved as the parametric approach to Scandinavian syntax would lead us to expect. In addition, the variation found within Faroese syntax is often gradient and not as categorical as the conventional parametric approach to variation would predict. Yet it can be shown that some of the correlations predicted by Holmberg and Platzack’s (1995) Agr Parameter and Bobaljik and Thráinsson’s (1998) Split IP Parameter are found in Faroese syntax and they are turn out to be statistically significant. In the final section it is argued that to account for facts of this sort we need to revise our ideas about parametric variation, language acquisition and the nature of internalized grammars — and that this will be necessary regardless of what we think of the particular formulation of parameters assumed by Holmberg and Platzack on the one hand and Bobaljik and Thráinsson on the other. 1. Parametric variation in Scandinavian syntax1 1.1. The agreement parameter and the case parameter In their comparative work on Scandinavian around 1990, which culminated in their influential book On the Role of Inflection in Scandinavian Syntax (1995), Holmberg and Platzack (henceforth H&P or P&H, depending on the order of authors in the relevant publications) divide the Scandinavian languages into two main groups, i.e.

  • Indo-European Linguistics: an Introduction Indo-European Linguistics an Introduction
    This page intentionally left blank Indo-European Linguistics The Indo-European language family comprises several hun- dred languages and dialects, including most of those spoken in Europe, and south, south-west and central Asia. Spoken by an estimated 3 billion people, it has the largest number of native speakers in the world today. This textbook provides an accessible introduction to the study of the Indo-European proto-language. It clearly sets out the methods for relating the languages to one another, presents an engaging discussion of the current debates and controversies concerning their clas- sification, and offers sample problems and suggestions for how to solve them. Complete with a comprehensive glossary, almost 100 tables in which language data and examples are clearly laid out, suggestions for further reading, discussion points and a range of exercises, this text will be an essential toolkit for all those studying historical linguistics, language typology and the Indo-European proto-language for the first time. james clackson is Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Classics, University of Cambridge, and is Fellow and Direc- tor of Studies, Jesus College, University of Cambridge.

  • Discover How Oracy Links with Metacognition
    The place of oracy withing the Thinking Matters approach Introduction ‘Oracy’ is a relatively new term. Coined in the 1960s by Andrew Wilkinson it was intended to put oracy on a par with numeracy and literacy in schools. Oracy can be defined as: ‘Our ability to communicate effectively using spoken language. It is the ability to speak eloquently, articulate ideas and thoughts, influence through talking, listen to others and have the confidence to express your views. These are all fundamental skills that support success in both learning and life beyond school. It is purposeful classroom talk which develops children’s speaking and listening skills and enhances their learning through the effective use of spoken language.’1 In their timely document, Speak for Change, Millard and Menzies set out the history of oracy in schools, analyse the current landscape and make recommendations for the future. What may surprise us, however, is that the report offers no evidence of an improvement in oracy in education since 2017. In fact, Talking about a Generation2 reported that teachers then generally lacked confidence in tackling oracy and few had specific strategies for doing so. This, despite a clearly overwhelming need and plentiful advice and guidance. At the same time, Thinking Matters (TM) had also noted an increasing concern surrounding oracy in schools. Those using the term suggested it had meaning beyond the National Curriculum and Ofsted’s specific expectations of language3. Thinking Matters’ research had indicated that student readiness for the future should include the explicit teaching of speaking skills and that this should not be left to chance in the general hum of ‘group work,’ or ‘classroom discussion.’ In his paper Improving Oracy and Classroom Talk in English Schools: Achievements and Challenges4, Robin Alexander provides a history of the development, success and missteps in our perception of speech and communication in schools over half a century.

    Education Endowment Foundation Oracy Curriculum, Culture and Assessment Toolkit Evaluation report and Executive summary June 2015 Independent evaluators: Dr Bronwen Maxwell, Professor Cathy Burnett, Dr John Reidy, Ben Willis, Sean Demack The Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) The Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) is an independent grant-making charity dedicated to breaking the link between family income and educational achievement, ensuring that children from all backgrounds can fulfil their potential and make the most of their talents. The EEF aims to raise the attainment of children facing disadvantage by: • Identifying promising educational innovations that address the needs of disadvantaged children in primary and secondary schools in England; • Evaluating these innovations to extend and secure the evidence on what works and can be made to work at scale; • Encouraging schools, government, charities, and others to apply evidence and adopt innovations found to be effective. The EEF was established in 2011 by the Sutton Trust, as lead charity in partnership with Impetus Trust (now part of Impetus-The Private Equity Foundation) and received a founding £125m grant from the Department for Education. Together, the EEF and Sutton Trust are the government-designated What Works Centre for improving education outcomes for school-aged children.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Making the case for oracy skills in higher education: practices and opportunities Abstract In this paper I make the case for embedding oracy practices in the HE curriculum through explicit teaching of oracy skills and a shared common language to describe these skills. Active learning and teaching approaches as well as growing expectations of graduate employability skills have resulted in greater demands on students in UK higher education in terms of their oracy (speaking and listening) skills. Whilst oracy skills have long been the focus of studies in compulsory educational contexts, there is little transfer of research findings to a higher education context. With the aim of opening up the discussion on oracy skills in HE, this paper reports on an exploratory study carried out to investigate how teachers on two undergraduate business modules incorporated oral communication skills in their content, pedagogy and assessment. Data were gathered from observations of lectures and seminars, course documents, and semi-structured interviews with tutors.

  • Five Components of Effective Oral Language Instruction
    Five Components of Effective Oral Language Instruction 1 Introduction “Oral Language is the child’s first, most important, and most frequently used structured medium of communication. It is the primary means through which each individual child will be enabled to structure, to evaluate, to describe and to control his/her experience. In addition, and most significantly, oral language is the primary mediator of culture, the way in which children locate themselves in the world, and define themselves with it and within it” (Cregan, 1998, as cited in Archer, Cregan, McGough, Shiel, 2012) At its most basic level, oral language is about communicating with other people. It involves a process of utilizing thinking, knowledge and skills in order to speak and listen effectively. As such, it is central to the lives of all people. Oral language permeates every facet of the primary school curriculum. The development of oral language is given an importance as great as that of reading and writing, at every level, in the curriculum. It has an equal weighting with them in the integrated language process. Although the Curriculum places a strong emphasis on oral language, it has been widely acknowledged that the implementation of the Oral Language strand has proved challenging and “there is evidence that some teachers may have struggled to implement this component because the underlying framework was unclear to them” (NCCA, 2012, pg. 10) In light of this and in order to provide a structured approach for teachers, a suggested model for effective oral language instruction is outlined in this booklet. It consists of five components, each of which is detailed on subsequent pages.
