Educational Innovation in Economics and Business Administration:
During the last few years economics and business education have emerged as one of the largest fields of study in higher education. At the same time, the pressing concern for improving the quality of higher education has led to a definite need for more knowledge about effective instruction and innovation in economics and business education. The book brings together many examples of reform in economics and business education. Special attention is paid to the problem-based learning approach, which over the past ten years, has developed as a very important innovation in higher education. The book contains contributions from a variety of institutions on the necessity of curriculum reform, the choice of instructional methods, assessment and testing, and management of change. It is of interest for teachers in higher education, educational psychologists, and any person interested in educational innovation in economics and business administration.

Intercultural Contact, Language Learning and Migration
At the heart of this volume lies an exploration of what actually happens to languages and their users when cultures come into contact. What actions do supra-national institutions, nation states, communities and individuals take in response to questions raised by the increasingly diverse forms of migration experienced in a globalized world? The volume reveals the profound impact that decisions made at national and international level can have on the lives of the individual migrant, language student, or speech community. Equally, it evaluates the broader ramifications of actions taken by migrant communities and individual language learners around issues of language learning, language maintenance and intercultural contact. Reflecting Jan Blommaert's assertion that in a world shaped by globalization, what is needed is 'a theory of language in society... of changing language in a changing society', this volume argues that researchers must increasingly seek diverse methodological approaches if they are to do justice to the diversity of experience and response they encounter.
Mehrsprachigkeit
Wer erforschen will, wie wir Sprachen erleben, Sprachen erwerben und mit Sprachen umgehen, findet in diesem Buch aktuelle soziolinguistische Zugänge zur Mehrsprachigkeit – mit Fokus einmal auf handelnde und erlebende Subjekte, dann auf verfestigte Diskurse und Sprachideologien und schließlich auf räumlich und zeitlich situierte Praktiken. Das 2013 von Brigitta Busch vorgestellte sprachbiografische Arbeiten gilt mittlerweile als international anerkannte Methode zur wissenschaftlichen Erhebung und Analyse sprachlicher Repertoires. Die Neuauflage wurde um Passagen zu Gebärdensprachen, zu migrations- und sprachenpolitischen Neuausrichtungen unter dem Vorzeichen sogenannter Sicherheitspolitiken, zu Alltagspraktiken der Mediennutzung sowie zu Sprachregimen in urbanen Räumen und in der Arbeitswelt erweitert.

Durkheim and the Internet
This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. Sociolinguistic evidence is an undervalued resource for social theory. In this book, Jan Blommaert uses contemporary sociolinguistic insights to develop a new sociological imagination, exploring how we construct and operate in online spaces, and what the implications of this are for offline social practice. Taking Émile Durkheim's concept of the 'social fact' (social behaviours that we all undertake under the influence of the society we live in) as the point of departure, he first demonstrates how the facts of language and social interaction can be used as conclusiv...
