Sinopsis

"Language Policies and Educational Practices" explores the critical role of language policies in education systems. Language is a fundamental tool for communication, shaping our thoughts and interactions. This book examines how language policies determine the medium of instruction at various educational levels, focusing on the practicalities and challenges of these policies.
We highlight the importance of local languages in contributing to a country's social, political, and economic development, emphasizing their vital role in education. Using case studies, we analyze how local language policies are implemented by teachers, the challenges they face, and practical solutions to these challenges. The book also discusses the need for refresher courses for teachers and training for translators.
From the 1960s, the federal government encouraged and sometimes mandated the use of non-English languages in education. This book covers significant legislative milestones, such as the Bilingual Education Act of 1968, the Native American Languages Act of 1990, and other federal programs promoting language diversity and literacy.
Disponible desde: 03/01/2025.

    We broke our new series on learning Filipino [Tagalog] down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Filipino [Tagalog]. 
    In Unit 1 you will hear Filipino [Tagalog] decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
    Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Filipino [Tagalog] speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Filipino [Tagalog]. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Filipino [Tagalog] at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Filipino [Tagalog], Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
    In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

    A Truce That Is Not Peace

    "Essential reading. A companion for turbulent times."—Laura van den Berg 
      
    Internationally bestselling author Miriam Toews' memoir of the will to write—a work of disobedient memory, humor, and exquisite craft set against a content-hungry, prose-stuffed society. 
      
    “Why do you write?” the organizer of a literary event in Mexico City asks Miriam Toews. Each attempted answer from Toews—all of them unsatisfactory to the organizer—surfaces new layers of grief, guilt, and futility connected to her sister's suicide. She has been keeping up, she realizes, a decades-old internal correspondence, filling a silence she barely understands. And we, her readers, come to see that the question is as impossible to answer as deciding whether to live life as a comedy or a tragedy. 
      
    Marking the first time Toews has written her own life in nonfiction, A Truce That Is Not Peace explores the uneasy pact a writer makes with memory. Wildly inventive yet masterfully controlled; slyly casual yet momentous; wrenching and joyful; hilarious and humane—this is Miriam Toews at her dazzling best, remaking her world and inventing an astonishing new literary form to contain it.
