This landmark volume articulates and develops the argument that new directions in sociocultural theory are needed in order to address important issues of identity, agency, and power that are central to understanding literacy research and literacy learning as social and cultural practices. With an overarching focus on the research process as it relates to sociocultural research, the book is organized around two themes: conceptual frameworks and knowledge sources. *Part I, “Rethinking Conceptual Frameworks,” offers new theoretical lenses for reconsidering key concepts traditionally associated with sociocultural theory, such as activity, history, community, and the ways they are conceptuali...

Each one of us truly desires to be happy, to be loved, and to be free. Given that, why is this so rare? Why are so few people truly happy? Why do so few have a deep inner peace? And more importantly, what can be done about it?This short work, rooted in an authentically Catholic spirituality, and written in an engaging, easy to understand style, answers those questions, starting with a basic explanation of spiritual woundedness - the fundamental cause of so much emotional bondage, unhappiness, and inability to love or be loved - and following that, provides an eminently practical guide for healing. Given the chaos and confusion reigning in Church and society, it is more urgent than ever for each person who really wants to heal, who really wants to have a truly deep and profound relationship with Jesus, to have a reliable guide. Healing: Selections from the Sermons of Fr Phil Wolfe FSSP meets that need.
Australian War Diaries of a Japanese P.O.W. is a remarkable story of survival and the endurance of Australian spirit in the face of adversity. Fred Lasslett went down with the HMAS Perth off Indonesia, and was captured by the Japanese. He spent the remainder of the war in POW camps in Indonesia and Japan, but through it all maintained a diary in the form of letters home to his "elusive girl", written on cigarette paper and preserved to this day. Fred's diaries include amazing stories of escape and recapture, with the author ultimately facing a Japanese firing squad and telling how he survived. These letters reveal a spirit unshaken in the face of long imprisonment, failed escape attempts and dreary conditions in the Japanese work camp. Grim, unquenchable, uplifting; Australian War Diaries of a Japanese P.O.W. is sure to inspire.

Style and the Future of CompositionStudies explores style’s potential for informing how students are taught to write well and its power as a tool for analyzing the language and discourse practices of writers and speakers in a range of contexts. Many college writing teachers operate under the belief that style still refers primarily to the kinds of issues discussed in Strunk and White’s popular but outdated book The Elements of Style. This work not only challenges this view but also offers theories and pedagogies from diverse perspectives that help teachers and students develop strategic habits and mindsets to negotiate languages, genres, and discourse conventions. The chapters explore th...
This book is designed for writing teachers who teach in online environments - primarily networked computer labs and the Internet - and for writing teachers who would like to teach in such spaces. All the contributors write from their own teaching, research or administrative experience, and all tell their stories in a rich theoretical context that will allow readers to see the relationship between theory, context and practice. The chapters serve as descriptive guides to new teaching practices to help the reader find ways to use online activities to further their own pedagogical goals within their own specific contexts.
