  • Exploiting the Bilingual's Psycho-Social
    International Journal of Arts & Sciences, CD-ROM. ISSN: 1944-6934 :: 09(02):551–564 (2016) EXPLOITING THE BILINGUAL’S PSYCHO-SOCIAL CHARACTERISTICS TO ENHANCE VOCABULARY ACQUISITION Enoka Makulloluwa Brock University, Canada This paper is a literature review exploring to what extent translation from the second language (L2) to first language (L1) and the construction of mnemonics based on culturally relevant imagery facilitate the encoding and retrieval of new vocabulary words in English as a Second Language (ESL) undergraduates. The study is mainly informed by the Bilingual Dual Coding Theory (BDCT), which assumes that cognitive activity of a bilingual is mediated by the two verbal systems in his/her language repertoire and the image system representing his/her knowledge of the world. Based on the literature, I propose that the use of L1 and culturally relelvant imagery together provide a potential vocabulary learning strategy to ESL learners as they acknowledge the learners psycho-social characterisitcs into consideration. Keywords: L1, Imagery mnemonics, BDCT, Vocabualry. Introduction Research suggests that there exist an achievement gap in terms of academic performance between English as a Second Language (ESL) learners with Limited English Proficiency (LEP) and their native English- speaking counterparts (Bibian, 2006; Hakuta, Butler, & Witt, 2000; Stahl & Nagy, 2006; Gu, 2013). This is due to their inadequate skills in the medium of classroom instruction. In particular, one of the literacy skills that causes learners insurmountable difficulties is vocabulary. It is identified as one of the main explanations for the achievement gap between ESL learners with LEP and their native English-speaking peers (August & Shanahan, 2006; Giridharan, 2012; Ramachandran & Rahim, 2004).

Anthropology 513 Bioarchaeology Seminar Instructor: Dr. Corey Ragsdale Office: Social Science 217 Email: [email protected] Office hours: TR 2:00 to 3:30 Course Description Bioarchaeology allows us to ‘people’ the past. To do this, bioarchaeologists follow two general rules of thumb. First, they contextualize human remains in physical space, cultural milieu, and pre-historic time. That is, skeletonized and mummified bodies are never examined without also considering their associated archaeological materials. Second, bioarchaeologists regard ancient bodies as bio-cultural phenomena. Human biology is impacted directly by culture, and vice versa. With these two ideas in hand, we will explore bioarchaeology’s history, development, major topical concerns, and debates. We will also engage critically with categories and assumptions about race, sex/gender, age, ethnicity, disease and disability, violence, and body parts. To conclude the semester, we will reflect upon bioarchaeology’s relevance in contemporary politics.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: March 19, 2014 Casey De La Rosa 310.360.1981 [email protected] Sundance Institute Expands Support to Writers and Creators of Series for TV and Online Platforms First ‘Sundance Institute Episodic Story Lab’ to Be Held in Fall 2014 at the Sundance Resort, with Norman and Lyn Lear as Founding Supporters Los Angeles, CA — Sundance Institute today announced a significant expansion of its renowned labs for independent artists to include dedicated support for writers and creators of series for television and online platforms. The first Sundance Institute Episodic Story Lab will be held in Fall 2014 at the Sundance Resort in Sundance, Utah. Building on the Institute’s 30-year legacy of developing new work from storytellers with distinctive and risk-taking stories, this new initiative addresses the need for more opportunities for learning and mentorship of singular and diverse voices in scripted TV and online series. In collaboration with accomplished mentors, writers at the six-day, immersive Episodic Story Lab will work on developing stories and characters that play out over multiple episodes and will also have the opportunity to better understand the landscape for production and distribution of serialized stories. Both drama and comedy writing will be supported at the Lab, which has been organized under the leadership of Michelle Satter, Founding Director of the Institute’s Feature Film Program. The Lab is made possible by generous support and guidance from television producer Norman Lear and his wife, Institute Trustee Lyn Lear. The Institute cites the growth of great writing and bold content in recent years as inspiration for the Lab.
