Introduction Eighteen articles are included in these Proceedings of the III edition of the International Colloquium on Languages, Cultures, Identity, in Schools and Society, held in Soria, Spain, July 5-7, 2017. They cover a variety of issues related to the three main topics of the event. Leonor Martínez Serrano describes various European Union’s linguistic and cultural policies, aimed at raising citizens’ sensitivity to linguistic and cultural diversity. The latter are thought to be two of the mains assets of human communities in the 21st century. Also in the realm of linguistic policies, Fajer Bin Rashid discusses the term “Englishes”, and explains how English is taught in a periphery-English country such as Kuwait. The topic of interculturality in teacher training courses is present in five articles. The first two revolve around students’ responses to their real-life scenarios, the following two do so around teacher preparation at the program level, and the final one presents information on how Hispanics are portrayed on TV and films. In the first article, Veronique Lemoine-Bresson, Stephanie Lerat, and Marie-José Gremmo investigate graduate students’ perceptions on the concept of diversity of languages, and how their views on the topic may be altered upon enrolling in an intercultural course in France. Bianca Vitalaru and Iulia Vescan examine the challenges of American students enrolled in a graduate program of study in Madrid, in an effort to understand, and help them with, their academic writing needs. Nancy Rosario- Rodríguez and Anita Vázquez Batisti, for their part, present the foundations of the Multicultural Education Teacher Leadership Academy Model, an initiative aimed at preparing teachers to become future school administrators in multicultural schools in NY. Sheryl Santos-Hatchett and Mara Queiroz Vaughn describe their efforts to infuse Spanish into their university’s curriculum, given the large number of heritage Spanish-speakers enrolled at their institution. Last, but not least, Estela Calero presents an interesting study on how Hispanics are featured in U.S. TV and films, as well as the changes being introduced by some programs to diminish stereotypes. Two articles focus on the educational needs of immigrant students in schools. In the first one, Kristen McInerney investigates public opinion on newcomers’ and immigrants’ educational needs through her analysis of posts on a New York Times blog on immigration and education. Luisa María González and Tamara Robledo describe different activities carried out in a secondary school to promote a more culturally inclusive community. In an additional article, Mark Landry and Lenka Landryova provide practical examples of how gaming can contribute to increasing the English proficiency levels of students enrolled in an Air Transport course at a university in the Czech Republic. Joaquín Sueiro reflects on the meaning of language, culture, and identity, and how these concepts are treated in Spanish language manuals in Galicia, Spain, and Puebla, Mexico. Along these lines, Beatriz Suárez and María Rosa Pérez examine how three Spanish as Foreign Language manuals, addressed to different types or readers and classroom settings, modify their visual content and language to tentatively adapt to the different environments in which they are used. Mother tongue instruction and language use is the subject in three articles related to three different realities, Kenya, Vietnam, and Kazakhstan. In the first one, Hellen Inyega highlights the importance of using students’ mother tongues to make instruction more comprehensible, using examples from East Africa to illustrate her contentions. Cao Thi ̣ Quynh Loan and Richard Gregory Bradley explain their family’s translanguaging practices to promote effective communication. Taryn U’Halie, for her part, explains how the use of dogs as reading partners in Kazakhstan is contributing to the development of literacy in individuals’ native, and other, languages. Adrián Neubauer, Helaine Marshall with Nan Frydland, and Theresa Bodon explore the plights of refugees from different angles. Neubauer describes the location and characteristics of refugees’ camps worldwide, summarizes the Universal Declaration of Human Rights’ and the Convention on the Rights of the Child’s articles alluding to the education of children, and explains the impact of these documents on Spanish educational policies. Marshall and Frydland, for their part, elaborate on the rationale and components of the Mutually Adaptive Learning Paradigm, a paradigm that uses scroll-based teaching and theme booklets to familiarize refugees with the intricacies of their respective host countries. Finally, Bodon explores the plights of refugees in the “Calais Jungle” through the poems and narratives of two Iranian refugees living in the camp. I would like to acknowledge the dedication, interest, and passion for their respective subjects of all the authors and participants in the Colloquium. Having been able to meet, and learn from, so many colleagues from so many different countries, and admire their commitment to the profession is very reassuring, especially when given the difficult times many of us are currently experiencing in our daily practices.

We see her leave the auditorium, high on the Christmas spirit, but she runs into Maritza and Flaca who then make fun of the way she hit herself when she froze onstage, which triggers the memories of her mother pushing her to do things when she was younger. She snaps and runs outside and in a daze attacks Piper (who is in the midst of attacking Pennsatucky), taking out her anger towards her mother.

Seventeen New York productions received 31 Golden Globe nominations, and 13 New York productions received 17 SAG Award nominations. All nominated productions participated in the New York State Film Tax Credit Program. "Thanks to our Film Tax Credit Program, New York State has become a top destination for productions, creating thousands of new jobs and generating billions of dollars in economic activity," said Commissioner Zemsky. “The film industry is one of New York’s most lucrative business sectors, and as today's many New York State nominees have learned firsthand, New York has access to top-level talent and diverse locations throughout the state.” The Film Tax Credit Program has contributed billions of dollars to the state’s economy, and is consistently cited as a leading factor by productions when deciding to film and produce in New York. The 22 productions earning nominations generated more than an estimated $490 million in spending in the state and approximately 31,825 new hires in the state. To date in 2015, a record 197 film and television projects have applied for the Empire State’s program, estimated to generate 184,055 new hires and $2.97 billion in new spending for New York State.
