Writing from Sources: How Three Undergraduate Multilingual WRITING FROM SOURCES: HOW THREE UNDERGRADUATE MULTILINGUAL WRITERS NEGOTIATED ELEMENTS OF SOURCE-BASED WRITING IN AN EAP COURSE THAT USED LITERARY AND NONLITERARY SOURCE TEXTS. DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Faye I. D‘Silva, M.A. Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Alan Hirvela, Advisor Dr. David Bloome Dr. Keiko Samimy Copyrighted by Faye D‘Silva 2014 Abstract The long-standing debate over the value of literature in the teaching of L2 academic writing has been ongoing. Given the general discomfort with the use of literature in source-based writing and in EAP writing instruction and the absence of literary texts in EAP writing courses, studies that look at how source texts are used in L2 writers‘ acquisition of academic literacy skills are rare. Operating in response to that debate, this study sought to explore how three undergraduate multilingual academic writers negotiated the specific academic discursive practice of using both literary and nonliterary texts to complete source-based writing tasks. In doing so, the overarching goal of this study was to explore the use of literature within the context of teaching source-based writing in an EAP writing course. Theoretical formulations drawn from Vygotsky‘s sociocultural theory of mediation as extended by Lantolf (2000) formed the core framework of analysis for the study. Using qualitative methods of data gathering such as, participant observation, interviews, and document analysis, the primary sources of data examined were personal journals, course artifacts, questionnaires, interview transcripts, and field notes. The study sheds light on the complexities involved in learning multifaceted academic discursive practices such as source-based writing. The findings suggest that although the participants encountered some discursive challenges in the practice of using sources, they negotiated the practice of source-based writing in individually nuanced ii ways by adopting an agentive approach to employing mediating semiotic resources in their social context. A substantive new finding was related to how the use of a literary text has the potential to enhance and encourage the participant‘s creativity in the composition of their own texts. This finding could be characterized as a grounded theoretical hypothesis and was evident in the ways that elements of creativity were embedded in their composed texts. Ultimately, then, the study has contributed new knowledge to the ongoing debate about the use of literary texts in research-based EAP writing instruction. iii Acknowledgements My graduate student journey at the Ohio State University has been touched and inspired by a number of people and in this space, I wish to express my sincerest thanks and appreciation to all those who have shaped my life in many special ways.

  • From Dialogue to Bakhtin's Dialogue
    From Dialogue to Bakhtin’s Dialogue: A Critical Review in Learning Disability Research Waseem Mazher, M.A. Teachers College, Columbia University & Jong-Gu Kang, Ed.D. Daegu University Abstract: The purpose of this study was to understand the nature of dialogue used in peer- refereed research articles related to learning disabilities (LD) and instruction. We attempted to evaluate the quality of dialogue in these articles through a lens that Bakhtin and various disability studies scholars offer. In addition, we suggest that disability scholars’ concepts and uses of dialogue provided a way for us to frame our Bakhtinian critique in the broader context of theorizing the social model of disability. From a critical review of these articles, we identified various limitations in ways that dialogue is used to conduct the studies and also in the ways that dialogue is represented by the authors. The studies often minimized the voices of the students labeled as LD. We offer many suggestions for how to present their voices in research and how to improve teaching through conceptualizing learning in a different, more sensitive way as informed by Bakhtin’s notion of dialogue. Key Words: learning disability, dialogue, Bakhtinian Editor’s Note: This article was anonymously peer reviewed. Some authors in the field of special education, including Learning Disabilities (LD), have pointed out the need for researchers to engage in and report dialogue with students labeled as LD (Gallagher, Heshusius, Iano, & Skrtic, 2004; Reid, 1991; Reid & Button, 1995). Although there are several scholars who engage in dialogue with students labeled as LD, these students' voices are still hard to hear.

The book is based on a five-year study of computers for writing in actual school settings and presents what skilled teachers know about using computers to enhance the teaching of writing in the less than perfect conditions of ordinary clas7;rooms. The book describes classroom environments called "Writing Lands" where computers enhance a process approach to teaching writing and makes the point that what students do with any writing tool depends less on the power of the technology than on the power of the teacher. The book also shows how teachers in the vanguard are using computers to foster collaborative writing and teacher-student dialogue, and explains how these teachers cope with the knotty practical questions computers pose in the average school.

  • Schoolwide the Fundamentals of Grammar and Conventions
    SCHOOLWIDE THE FUNDAMENTALS OF GRAMMAR AND CONVENTIONS EXTENDED PROGRAM NARRATIVE AND RESEARCH DOCUMENT INTRODUCTION To build a foundation for college and career readiness in language, students must gain command of the conventions of standard English grammar, usage, and mechanics as well as learn other ways to use language to convey meaning effectively. A core tenant of The Fundamentals of Grammar and Conventions is that the teaching of grammar and conventions is most successful when presented in context and not in isolation. This foundation explicitly aligns with Common Core Instructional Shifts that emphasize text-dependent classroom experiences. The enclosed document illustrates the alignment of The Fundamentals of Grammar and Conventions to the Common Core State Standards in both narrative and graphical form. The Fundamentals of Grammar and Conventions aligns to: • Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy (CCSS) o Language o Speaking and Listening o Writing • Common Core Instructional Shifts • The Publisher’s Criteria for the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts & Literacy • New Research on Text Complexity • Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) Model Content Frameworks and Smarter Balance THE FUNDAMENTALS OF GRAMMAR AND CONVENTIONS: Connecting the Common Core to Best Practice Table of Contents The Fundamentals of Grammar and Conventions: Connecting Common Core State Standards To Best Practice (Graphical Chart) ........page 1 The Fundamentals of Grammar and

  • TEXT and VOICE in TWENTIETH CENTURY DRAMA Performativity of the Dramatic Text THESIS – SUMMARY
    TEXT AND VOICE IN TWENTIETH CENTURY DRAMA Performativity of the Dramatic Text THESIS – SUMMARY Gabriella Ágnes Nagy Doctoral School of Studies in Hungarian Literature Head of School: Dr. Zoltán Kenyeres Program in Comparative Literature Head of Program: Dr. Mihály Szegedy-Maszák Supervisor: Dr. Mihály Szegedy-Maszák, Member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Eötvös Loránd University Faculty of Arts 2008, Budapest 1 Subject, theoretical grounds and aim of research My research has focused on the study of dramatic texts from a perspective made possible by the concepts of performativity and theatricality. Through the analysis of a few dramatic texts, the dissertation tries to demonstrate how the text is able to provide the theatrical practice with new energy. Our possibilities are not confined to the mere disposal of the dramatic text, or the transformation of the text into acoustic noise, a roar, or the renouncing of the text on behalf of other signifying systems, but in each case the staging of the text poses questions for both the receptive and the productive aspects. The main theoretical guidelines for the research have been the speech act theory developed by Austin together with its critique, questions of authority and the problems of context, parergon and frame from the perspective of the theory of arts and of deconstruction. In addition I have developed and understood the concept of theatricality as a relational concept. Introduction The dissertation approaches from different perspectives the problems of the inscriptions of performativity and theatricality of the dramatic text – this is done through some texts written in the twentieth century.

  • O Lord, Open My Lips
    “O Lord, open my lips . .” (A Bi-labial Plosive Prayer of Praise) O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will proclaim your praise. (Psalm 51:15) A sermon by Siegfried S. Johnson on the 14th Sunday after Pentecost, August 26, 2018 (Volume 02 Number 08) Christ of the Hills UMC, 700 Balearic Drive, Hot Springs Village, Arkansas 71909 In last week’s message using the Rosetta Stone to speak of the gift human language my text was the Genesis 11 story of the Tower of Babel, which I suggested was the Big Bang of human language, an explosion of tongues into the world. Our worship opened with Charles Wesley’s “O, for a Thousand Tongues to Sing.” Of human language I wrote a sentence I want to expand upon this morning, “something beyond our comprehension is happening whenever our breath is winded gently through teeth and lips to form a word.” Often my mornings, at some point, breathe the beautiful prayer of King David in Psalm 51 which I’ve used this morning as a refrain, having the congregation repeat it three times in our Call to Worship, “O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will proclaim your praise.” The study of linguistics, the opening of the lips and the fashioning of words, has long fascinated me. When as a child my parents noted I had a speech impediment they arranged for lessons in phonics in a beautiful ante-bellum home in Pine Bluff, (now on the National Register) of a local teacher skilled in linguistics. Her name was Arie Beall, mother of Martha Beall.
