  • Xystems, Communications, and a Framework of Xystematics*
    Intercultural Communication Studies XVIII: 2 2009 Radwańska-Williams Language Contact and Language Learning in a Multicultural Setting: A Case Study of an Indian Family in Macao Joanna Radwańska-Williams, Macao Polytechnic Institute According to Salikoko Mufwene (2007), the ultimate locus of language contact is always in the individual act of communication. In a multilingual setting, individual acts of communication are encounters between different individuals’ multiple idiolects. Language contact thus becomes the motivation for individual language acquisition, and the driving force for the acquisition of multilingualism. This paper discusses the life histories of an Indian family that settled in Macao 26 years ago, the owners of a famous Indian restaurant which is an integral part of the Macao community. The paper focuses on issues of language learning, cultural integration, and the sociolinguistic impact of economic development. Special attention is given to the characteristics of a “good language learner” shown by one of the members of the family, who keeps multilingual notebooks of her language learning. Language contact has usually been conceptualized from the point of view of the development of a hybrid community language, such as a pidgin or a creole. As Mufwene (2007) points out, from this point of view, hybridity is seen as genetically anomalous, as an extreme phenomenon resulting from an unusual concatenation of circumstances thrusting radically different communities into linguistic contact with each other. However, as Mufwene (2007) also points out, it is possible to entertain the opposite perspective and to view contact and hybridity as entirely normal and frequent phenomena. If contact between languages, communities, populations, and cultures is normal rather than anomalous, then the focus of the description of a sociolinguistic situation could simply be on what kind of contact is taking place, and what kinds of changes ensue from it.

  • Service Philosophy
    THE UNIVERSITY OF MACAU Faculty of Science and Technology Department of Computer & Information Science Dr. Kam Hou Vat Statement of Service Philosophy Background It is my perception that virtually every college and university recognizes some kind of institutional service as being part of the responsibility of each faculty member. The philosophy sustaining my commitment in this important area of institutional service comes from my early reading of Robert K. Greenleaf's work on servant-leadership. I am deeply impressed by Greenleaf’s legacies, as demonstrated through The Greenleaf Center for Servant-Leadership (http://www.greenleaf.org/). His seminal essay "The Servant as Leader" (Greenleaf, 1977, pp.21-61) constitutes my essential understanding of the origin and definition of what it means to be a servant-leader. In Greenleaf's own words, "Servant and leader - can these two roles be fused in one real person, in all levels of status or calling? If so, can that person live and be productive in the real world of the present?" I have to confess that this is a constant challenge, and I am learning to live up to this challenge day-by-day. It has inspired the living, loving and learning in my life, including my various services sustained at the University of Macau and beyond. Meanwhile, it is also my observation that an organization’s ability to learn is often a process of leveraging the collective individual learning of the entity so as to attain a higher-level organization-wide goal. This is a continuous process of creating, acquiring, and transferring knowledge accompanied by a modification of individual and organizational behavior to reflect on new knowledge and insights.
