  • How to Get Published in ESOL and Applied Linguistics Serials
    How to Get Published in TESOL and Applied Linguistics Serials TESOL Convention & Exhibit (TESOL 2016 Baltimore) Applied Linguistics Editor(s): John Hellermann & Anna Mauranen Editor/Journal E-mail: [email protected] Journal URL: http://applij.oxfordjournals.org/ Journal description: Applied Linguistics publishes research into language with relevance to real-world problems. The journal is keen to help make connections between fields, theories, research methods, and scholarly discourses, and welcomes contributions which critically reflect on current practices in applied linguistic research. It promotes scholarly and scientific discussion of issues that unite or divide scholars in applied linguistics. It is less interested in the ad hoc solution of particular problems and more interested in the handling of problems in a principled way by reference to theoretical studies. Applied linguistics is viewed not only as the relation between theory and practice, but also as the study of language and language-related problems in specific situations in which people use and learn languages. Within this framework the journal welcomes contributions in such areas of current enquiry as: bilingualism and multilingualism; computer-mediated communication; conversation analysis; corpus linguistics; critical discourse analysis; deaf linguistics; discourse analysis and pragmatics; first and additional language learning, teaching, and use; forensic linguistics; language assessment; language planning and policies; language for special purposes; lexicography; literacies; multimodal communication; rhetoric and stylistics; and translation. The journal welcomes both reports of original research and conceptual articles. The Journal’s Forum section is intended to enhance debate between authors and the wider community of applied linguists (see Editorial in 22/1) and affords a quicker turnaround time for short pieces.

  • GRADE 11 WRITING PRACTICES Dez Poelinca
    GRADE 11 WRITING PRACTICES Dez Poelinca An exploration of grade 11 learners writing practices from the perspective of a teacher at a well-resourced public school in Johannesburg Abstract This study explored the reality of the current writing practices at work in the grade 11 English Home Language classroom from a teacher’s perspective. The research site is a well-resourced public school with qualified teachers in central Johannesburg where English is taught as the Home language and is the medium of instruction (LOLT). Ninety- eight grade 11 participants were purposively selected because they all attended the same school since grade eight and received the same teachings of language construction and composition. Qualitative research methodology was employed encapsulating this ethnographic case study where data was collected over a period of three months through observations, unstructured interviews, and a writing activity with the researcher as a permanent, full time English teacher interacting and teaching learners English Home Language daily. Research found a lack in studies that retrieved data through the physical teaching of writing. The study from the perspective of the teacher found critiques against writing approaches suggested in CAPS (2011) confusing and refutable. Each writing approach serves a different purpose and synergy of these approaches works best when equipping learners with the tools to produce good writing. According to Woolfolk (2013), activities and teaching methodology directs and guides learner behavior. When learners encounter activities that stimulate their curiosity and relates to their interest they are more likely to be motivated to learn (Huitt, 2011). Finally, the study calls for more explicit research regarding the relationship between the teaching of writing and pedagogical knowledge of teachers.The study conformed to all ethical research conditions by first obtaining consent of all participants with the option of declining without penalty.

  • WRITING YOUR FAMILY HISTORY a Guideline for Your Project
    WRITING YOUR FAMILY HISTORY A Guideline for Your Project Old Buncombe County Genealogical Society P.O. Box 2122, Asheville, NC 28802 •828-253-1894 •www.obcgs.com If you are interested in genealogy and have conducted even the shortest of searches for a relative, you might have thought about how to organize the results into a useful format. One could write a report, an article for a journal or even set up a notebook to share with others, but a book might seem daunting. Many genealogists dream about writing a book on their family research, but do not know where to start. In 2012, OBCGS organized a working group to explore the steps needed to write a family history book. The group was able to organize their findings and put them all in one place to share with our members. The result is this guideline, a summary of the steps necessary to get your research ready for printing. I. THE ORGANIZING PROCESS – success is easier when you do some planning up front. a. Choose the Format – cookbook, photo album, genealogy narrative, etc. b. Choose the Scope – one family line descending from a distant ancestor; the grandparent’s story; the military service of a Revolutionary War soldier in the family including his family genealogy; etc. c. Choose a Plot or Theme – one way to make the book more interesting to a broader audience is to use a plot or theme throughout. Suggestions might be their immigration story; life after slavery; survival during the Great Depression; etc. d. Research the Time and Place – this provides more narrative for the reader and rounds out the family members’ experience so the reader understands what they went through to raise their family and survive.

  • Linguistic Landscapes in a Multilingual World
    Annual Review of Applied Linguistics (2013), 33, 190–212. © Cambridge University Press, 2013, 0267-1905/13 $16.00 doi: 10.1017/S0267190513000020 Linguistic Landscapes in a Multilingual World Durk Gorter This article offers an overview of the main developments in the field of linguis- tic landscape studies. A large number of research projects and publications indicate an increasing interest in applied linguistics in the use of written texts in urban spaces, especially in bilingual and multilingual settings. The article looks into some of the pioneer studies that helped open up this line of research and summarizes some of the studies that created the springboard for its rapid expansion in recent years. The focus is on current research (from 2007 onward), including studies that illustrate main theoretical approaches and methodologi- cal development as key issues of the expanding field, in particular when applied in settings of societal multilingualism. Publications on the linguistic landscape cover a wide range of innovative theoretical and empirical studies that deal with issues related to multilingual- ism, literacy, multimodality, language policy, linguistic diversity, and minority languages, among others. The article shows some examples of the use of the linguistic landscape as a research tool and a data source to address a num- ber of issues in multilingualism. The article also explores some possible future directions. Overall, the various emerging perspectives in linguistic landscape research can deepen our understanding of languages in urban spaces, language users, and societal multilingualism in general. PANORAMA OF THE FIELD Language learning is the main product of the Rosetta Stone company. Its kiosks can be found in shopping malls and at airports across the United States, and its offices are all over the world.

From 4000 to 5000 languages spoken today in the world today English is most spread language. According to Broughton it is the most spread language of a great number of states and besides being the official language of United Nation and the language used by NATO, it is the official language of the international airborne, and non offically it is the first language of sport, music etc. Also today in Albania in all types of education it remains the most learned and used language. Today sudents in Albania are learning this language for different type of purposes. They plan to start schools abroad, or they plan to find a job where the English language is required, or simply they would like to read or listen songs in English. Taking into cosideration these and other purposes it was decided to write this article. Keywords: Teaching and learning English, importance of studying English, the most spread language. 1. English Today in the World We cannot start a study about the use of English language and its teaching in Albanian universities without bringing up the great importance that is gaining every day this language in the whole world.
