  • Northwest Journal of Linguistics Instructions for Referees Review Criteria
    Northwest Journal of Linguistics Instructions for Referees Review Criteria Topic Papers should deal with indigenous languages of Northwestern North America, including British Columbia, Alaska, the Yukon, the Northwest Territories, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Northwestern Montana. This definition is to be liberally interpreted. For example, papers dealing with contact languages may be appropriate even if they developed after European contact, as may be papers dealing with languages whose focus is elsewhere if there is some particular connection to the Northwest, e.g. a paper about Michif as used in British Columbia. Papers about languages spoken wholly outside of the region will generally not be appropriate but may be considered on the basis of some other connection, e.g. if the language is genetically related to a language of the region. Papers on all aspects of linguistics are acceptable: phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, diachronic, writing systems, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, language acquisition, etc. Papers may be descriptive, theoretical, or philological. Although we expect most papers to contain recent original research, we are interested in making available older unpublished material. Papers that clearly fall outside the scope of the journal will be rejected by the editors without refereeing, but referees may be called upon to give an opinion in marginal cases. Referees should feel free to indicate that a paper would be more appropriate for another journal. Quality The criteria for evaluating

  • Urban Sociology Is the Enduring View of Urban Space As a Proxy for Demographic, Structural, Economic Or Behavioral Variables in Social Research
    UC Santa Barbara Spaces for Difference: An Interdisciplinary Journal Title Finding Space Beyond Variables: An Analytical Review of Urban Space and Social Inequalities Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3tz160nq Journal Spaces for Difference: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 1(2) Author Joseph, Lauren Publication Date 2008-12-01 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Spaces for Difference: An Interdisciplinary Journal Volume 1, Number 2, pp. 29-50 Finding Space Beyond Variables: An Analytical Review of Urban Space and Social Inequalities LAUREN JOSEPH Stony Brook University ABSTRACT Attention to the element of space in the urban setting illuminates how social inequalities and social difference are reproduced and contested. In this review essay, I draw upon urban social research to demonstrate the relevance and utility of spatial analysis in the city, focusing on the dimensions of race, class, gender, and sexuality. I present a conceptual framework for analyzing the intersection of urban space, social inequality, and social difference: (a) urban space as inscribed by boundaries and reflective of patterns of social difference and inequality; (b) urban space as a site and object of struggle between social groups; and (c) urban space as a vehicle for social reproduction through the logic of its universe. Edward Soja points to the recent “spatial turn” of the late 1990s, in which he finds a “renewed awareness of the simultaneity and interwoven complexity of the social, historical, and spatial dimensions of our lives, their inseparability and often problematic interdependence” (2000:7). Drawing on Michel Foucault’s (1984) attention to the intersections of space, knowledge, and power and Henri Lefebvre’s (1991) conceptualization of the relations between spatiality, society and history, social researchers across disciplines have increasingly turned toward examining the social production of space, particularly urban space.

  • Journal of Phonetics (1984) 12: 345-354
    In: Journal of Phonetics (1984) 12: 345-354. On the nature of labial velar shift Raymond Hickey Bonn University Abstract Labial velar shift is a common diachronic occurrence in various languages which in recent works on phonology has been captured by the reintroduction of the Jakobsonian feature [grave]. The type of shift involved, the form and direction it takes is a matter which has received insufficient attention. The present study is an attempt to account for this shift by viewing manifestations of it in Romance, Celtic, Germanic, Slavic and Uralic. The essential difference between lenition and labial velar shift is emphasized and the notion of favouring conditions for the shift (the phonotactic environment of the segments involved) is introduced. In all cases the acoustic (and hence autditory) similarity of the segments which undergo shifting is seen to be the triggering factor. It is by now commonplace to maintain that a phonological framework must take cognizance of, and provide notational means for describing, the interrelatedness of labial and velar segments. Evidence abounds in a variety of languages (see below) that labials and velars relate in a manner which say labials and dentals do not. In early distinctive feature theory (Jakobson and Halle, 1956, p. 43) this fact could be captured by the use of the feature [grave]. It was also quickly recognized by linguists after the publication of Chomsky and Halle (1968) that the abandoning of the feature [grave] constituted a loss in generalization (Ladefoged, 1972, p.44; Hyman, 1973; Lass and Anderson, 1975, p.187). However, in those works where the necessity for the feature [grave] is insisted upon (Davidsen-Nielsen and Ørum, 1978, p.201; Sommerstein, 1977, p.

  • At the Juncture of Prosody, Phonology, and Phonetics – the Interaction of Phrasal and Syllable Structure in Shaping the Timing of Consonant Gestures∗
    At the juncture of prosody, phonology, and phonetics – the interaction of phrasal and syllable structure in shaping the timing of consonant gestures∗ Dani Byrd and Susie Choi The Laboratory Phonology research paradigm has established that abstract phonological structure has direct reflections in the spatiotemporal details of speech production. Past exploration of the complex relationship between lin- guistic structural properties and articulation has resulted in a softening of a severance between phonetics and phonology, which in recent years has begun to likewise encompass the phonetics-prosody interface. The abstract organiza- tion not only of words, but also of phrases, has a complex and rich effect on the articulatory details of speech production. This paper considers how phono- logical and prosodic structure interact in shaping the temporal realization of consonant sequences. Specifically, we examine the influence on articulatory timing of syllable structure effects in onset, coda, and heterosyllabic positions, and prosodic effects in the vicinity of a variety of phrase boundary conditions that grade in strength. Simultaneously, this work seeks to test and refine the π- gesture theoretical model of prosodic representation in speech production (Byrd & Saltzman 2003). 1. Introduction Three of the founders of Laboratory Phonology – Beckman, Ladd, and Pierre- humbert – describe its research paradigm as “involving the cooperation of peo- ple...whoshareaconcernforstrengtheningfoundations of phonology through improved methodology, explicit modeling, and cumulation of results” (Pier- rehumbert, Beckman, and Ladd 2001). Over the preceding nine Laboratory Phonology conferences, leading research in linguistic speech experimentation has clearly established that many aspects of abstract phonological structure are directly reflected in the spatiotemporal details of speech production.

  • Effective Foreign Language Teaching: a Matter of Iranian Students’ and Teachers’ Beliefs
    www.ccsenet.org/elt English Language Teaching Vol. 4, No. 2; June 2011 Effective Foreign Language Teaching: a Matter of Iranian Students’ and Teachers’ Beliefs Mahyar Ganjabi Payamenoor University Tel: 98-9127-049-132 E-mail: [email protected] Received: December 31, 2010 Accepted: January 28, 2011 doi:10.5539/elt.v4n2p46 Abstract This paper reports on a study that investigated the beliefs about language learning of 120 Iranian EFL students and 16 EFL teachers. The primary aim of the study was to reveal whether there was any difference between the beliefs of Iranian students and teachers regarding different aspects of language learning such as grammar teaching, error correction, culture, target language use, computer-based technology, communicative language teaching strategies and assessment. Data were collected using a 24-item questionnaire. It was concluded that there were some differences between the Iranian students’ and teachers’ beliefs regarding what procedures were most effective in bringing about language learning. Discussion of the findings and implications for further research are also articulated. Keywords: Effective language teaching, Teachers’ beliefs, Students’ beliefs 1. Introduction Language practitioners and researchers have already recognized that teachers and their agendas do not have a complete control over what learners learn from English language courses (Allwright, 1984 as cited in Breen, 2001a; Salimani, 2001). The recent emphasis on the holistic approaches to language learning have brought into our focus the fact that learners are not just cognitive beings, that is, they do not approach the task of language learning merely from the cognitive window (Breen, 2001b). But learners are multidimensional beings; they are a combination of a bulk of different variables which help them to learn whatever they are learning in the best possible way.

  • Effects of Instruction on L2 Pronunciation Development: a Synthesis of 15 Quasiexperimental Intervention Studies
    RESEARCH ISSUES TESOL Quarterly publishes brief commentaries on aspects of qualitative and quantitative research. Edited by CONSTANT LEUNG King’s College London Effects of Instruction on L2 Pronunciation Development: A Synthesis of 15 Quasi- Experimental Intervention Studies KAZUYA SAITO Waseda University Tokyo, Japan doi: 10.1002/tesq.67 & Over the past 25 years second language (L2) acquisition research has paid considerable attention to the effectiveness of instruction on L2 morphosyntax development, and the findings of relevant empirical studies have been extensively summarized using narrative review meth- ods (e.g., Ellis, 2002) as well as meta-analytic review methods (e.g., Spada & Tomita, 2010). These researchers have reached a consensus that (a) integrating language focus into meaning-oriented classrooms is more effective than a purely naturalistic approach, and (b) contextu- alized grammar teaching methods (e.g., focus-on-form instruction, form-focused instruction) is more effective than decontexualized gram- mar teaching methods (e.g., focus-on-formS instruction, grammar- translation method). What is surprising in this vein of L2 acquisition studies, however, is the lack of research in the area of L2 pronuncia- tion development. Pronunciation teaching has been notorious for its overdependence on decontextualized practice such as mechanical drills and repetition, reminiscent of the audiolingual teaching meth- ods of several decades ago (for discussion, see Celce-Murcia, Brinton, Goodwin, & Griner, 2010). Furthermore, very few language teachers actually receive adequate training in the specific area of pronunciation teaching (Foote, Holtby, & Derwing, 2011). 842 TESOL QUARTERLY Vol. 46, No. 4, December 2012 © 2012 TESOL International Association In recent years, several researchers have made strong calls for research on teaching for intelligible (rather than native-like) pronunciation.

Ir. Sutami 36 Surakarta, Indonesia. E-mail: [email protected] Received: February 24, 2014 Accepted: April 8, 2014 Online Published: May 20, 2014 doi:10.5539/ies.v7n6p25 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ies.v7n6p25 Abstract This study aims at describing the use of language at primary schools grade 1, 2, and 3 in Surakarta. The study belongs to descriptive qualitative research. It emphasizes in a note which depict real situation to support data presentation. Content analysis is used as research methodology. It analyzes the research result of the observed speech event. The data are collected from three sources: informant, events, and documents. Results of the study demonstrate that the use of Javanese language is still dominant in the learning process at primary schools in Surakarta. Many factors affect the use of Javanese language as mother tongue in classroom teaching-learning process. They are (1) balancing the learning process, so that learners are able to better understand the material presented by the teacher (2) teacher’s habit to speak Javanese language, and (3) drawing student’s attention. The factors underlying this phenomenon are explained by teacher and student’s lack of Indonesian language vocabulary. In addition, there is an element unnoticed by teachers.

  • García & Davis-Wiley FINAL Submission of 4-27-16 5
    Journal of Education & Social Policy Vol. 2, No. 5; November 2015 Tomorrow’s World Language Teachers: Practices, Processes, Caveats and Challenges along the Yellow Brick Road Dr. Paul A. García University of Kansas (retired) 5211 Everwood Run, Sarasota, FL 34235 U.S.A. Dr. Patricia Davis-Wiley Professor, WL and ESL ED The University of Tennessee BEC 217, Knoxville, TN 37996-3442 U.S.A. Abstract In this manuscript, the authors discuss multiple issues confronting world language teacher development (WLTD) and suggest options to ensure academic success for all world language (WL) learners. Critics’ claims that WLTD programs lack professionalization can be addressed to “get it right” for tomorrow’s pre-service students—and for their pre-K-12 learners by the establishment of a National Commission on WLTD. Four questions inform our argument that improved professionalization, together with clinical induction and teacher efficacy, will contribute to learners’ success: 1. How might WLTD build upon—and not repeat—past practices? 2. How will standardization initiatives continue to change WLTD? 3. How might investigators align research that contributes to student achievement at the pre-collegiate level? 4. How does the implementation of such endeavors influence our praxis?
