Sexual Identities in English Language Education
Skillfully interweaving classroom voices and theoretical analysis, this innovative, cutting-edge book provides a practical framework of macrostrategies to guide English language teachers (of any sexual identification) in engaging with lesbian/gay themes in the classroom.
Sexual Identities in English Language Education
What pedagogic challenges and opportunities arise as gay, lesbian, and queer themes and perspectives become an increasingly visible part of English language classes within a variety of language learning contexts and levels? What sorts of teaching practices are needed in order to productively explore the sociosexual aspects of language, identity, culture, and communication? How can English language teachers promote language learning through the development of teaching approaches that do not presume an exclusively heterosexual world? Drawing on the experiences of over 100 language teachers and learners, and using a wide range of research and theory, especially queer education research, this innovative, cutting-edge book skillfully interweaves classroom voices and theoretical analysis to provide informed guidance and a practical framework of macrostrategies English language teachers (of any sexual identification) can use to engage with lesbian/gay themes in the classroom. In so doing, it illuminates broader questions about how to address social diversity, social inequity, and social inquiry in a classroom context.
Living Downtown
From the palace hotels of the elite to cheap lodging houses, residential hotels have been an element of American urban life for nearly two hundred years. Since 1870, however, they have been the target of an official war led by people whose concept of home does not include the hotel. Do these residences constitute an essential housing resource, or are they, as charged, a public nuisance? Living Downtown, the first comprehensive social and cultural history of life in American residential hotels, adds a much-needed historical perspective to this ongoing debate. Creatively combining evidence from biographies, buildings and urban neighborhoods, workplace records, and housing policies, Paul Groth ...
60 Minute CFO
Business owners believe that if sales and profits are strong and growing, banks should enthusiastically provide the necessary funding. Bankers are concerned that business owners do not understand the difference between profits and cash flow, and may overly rely on debt to support the growth. CPAs provide valuable information in the form of financial statements, but often struggle with explaining how they should be interpreted. This book bridges the communication gap between these parties, and describes in simple and easy to understand language what it all means. What key indicators to look at and why. What the rules of behavior are for dealing with the banker and CPA. The Excel-based workbook that is available on the author's website makes it easy by doing all the calculations automatically, including the ability to forecast profits, cash flow and financial strength. It is critical that the business owner, banker, and CPA understand each other. Give it 60 minutes a month. That's all it takes to make it happen.
The Humor of the Old South
The humor of the Old South—tales, almanac entries, turf reports, historical sketches, gentlemen's essays on outdoor sports, profiles of local characters—flourished between 1830 and 1860. The genre's popularity and influence can be traced in the works of major southern writers such as William Faulkner, Erskine Caldwell, Eudora Welty, Flannery O'Connor, and Harry Crews, as well as in contemporary popular culture focusing on the rural South. This collection of essays includes some of the past twenty five years' best writing on the subject, as well as ten new works bringing fresh insights and original approaches to the subject. A number of the essays focus on well known humorists such as Aug...
