Reviving Catalan at School
This book presents a comprehensive picture of languages and schools in Catalan-speaking countries, making much of the information available in English for the first time. The chapters examine multiple aspects of the language situation in these countries, including: the recovery of Catalan in schools; the position and status of the majority languages (English and Spanish); language-in-education policies in a multilingual, multicultural context; the possibility of multilingual competence; and the successes and failures of instructional processes.
Whose Learning is it Anyway?
How can language learning in the formal context of the classroom contribute to the learners' communicative competence, whilst at the same time enhancing their general learning skills and preparing them for life long learning? Such a challenge is complex, as is catering to the needs of individual students in a group learning context. This book explores ways in wich a traditional task-based approach to language teaching, can be extended to help students not only to become more skilful language users, but to become more skillful learners in the process.
Flinovia—Flow Induced Noise and Vibration Issues and Aspects-II
This is the proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Flow Induced Noise and Vibration (FLINOVIA), which was held in Penn State, USA, in April 2016. The authors’ backgrounds represent a mix of academia, government, and industry, and several papers include applications to important problems for underwater vehicles, aerospace structures and commercial transportation. The book offers a valuable reference guide for all those working in the area of flow-induced vibration and noise. Flow induced vibration and noise (FIVN) remains a critical research topic. Even after over 50 years of intensive research, accurate and cost-effective FIVN simulation and measurement techniques remain elusi...
Multiscale Methods in Computational Mechanics
This work gives a modern, up-to-date account of recent developments in computational multiscale mechanics. Both upscaling and concurrent computing methodologies will be addressed for a range of application areas in computational solid and fluid mechanics: Scale transitions in materials, turbulence in fluid-structure interaction problems, multiscale/multilevel optimization, multiscale poromechanics. A Dutch-German research group that consists of qualified and well-known researchers in the field has worked for six years on the topic of computational multiscale mechanics. This text provides a unique opportunity to consolidate and disseminate the knowledge gained in this project. The addition of chapters written by experts outside this working group provides a broad and multifaceted view of this rapidly evolving field.
Flinovia—Flow Induced Noise and Vibration Issues and Aspects-III
This volume gathers the latest advances and innovations in the field of flow-induced vibration and noise, as presented by leading international researchers at the 3rd International Symposium on Flow Induced Noise and Vibration Issues and Aspects (FLINOVIA), which was held in Lyon, France, in September 2019. It explores topics such as turbulent boundary layer-induced vibration and noise, tonal noise, noise due to ingested turbulence, fluid-structure interaction problems, and noise control techniques. The authors’ backgrounds represent a mix of academia, government, and industry, and several papers include applications to important problems for underwater vehicles, aerospace structures and commercial transportation. The book offers a valuable reference guide for all those interested in measurement, modelling, simulation and reproduction of the flow excitation and flow induced structural response.
The Pragmatics of Catalan
This book aims to disseminate at an international level a set of innovative studies whose descriptive and applied point of reference is the Catalan language. The volume constitutes a significant contribution to the field of intercultural pragmatics and also to a broad range of grammatical and cognitive issues which have been approached from the pragmatic perspective.
Coneixement, llenguatge i discurs especialitzat
La xarxa temàtica Coneixement, Llenguatge i Discurs Especialitzat (XT99-00036, 2001XT-0032, 2003XT-00051) es creà l’any 2000 amb la finalitat de reflexionar sobre l’espai d’intersecció entre el coneixement, el llenguatge i el discurs especialitzat. L’objectiu principal de la xarxa temàtica és posar en connexió grups de recerca de diferents camps per fonamentar la reflexió interdisciplinària sobre el coneixement especialitzat i avaluar teories que donin raó de la producció lingüística en els àmbits especialitzats, sempre sobre bases gramaticals i psicosociològiques explícites. \nIntegren la xarxa els següents grups de recerca: MEDHISTERM (Universitat de València, Univ...
The Intricacy of Languages
If, as we believe, the history of languages is the history of the construction of an ideal artefact that permits a specific interpretation of the linguistic reality and helps to approve and assimilate a certain zone of diversity, enabling the accumulation of collective historical knowledge and making us identify it with a social community and a territory, then it must be agreed that languages are extremely complex entities. The new linguistic diversity that cultural globalisation and recent population movements have installed in most traditional linguistic territories has probably put the ideology of the national language into a state of crisis and, as a consequence, has made the ancient, in...
Mirades i veus
El llibre recull les aportacions dels grups de recerca de la xarxa LLERA sobre l'Educació Lingüística i Literària en Entorns Plurilingües. Aquesta xarxa reuneix setze equips de recerca procedents de set universitats catalanes que han investigat d ́una manera continuada sobre l ́ensenyament i l ́aprenentatge de les llengües i de la literatura a Catalunya, des de visions compartides i complementàries.
A cavall per Catalunya
El món dels cavalls, al nostre país, gaudeix d'una tradició molt antiga i completa basada en una relació estreta que comporta, per exemple, l'existència de races autòctones pròpies, com el guarà català o el cavall cerdà. Malgrat això, hi ha una gran mancança de bibliografia sobre el tema en la nostra llengua, exceptuant un parell de notables excepcions. Amb aquest llibre l'autor pretén ensenyar els fonaments bàsics de tenir un cavall i compartir rutes i presentar unes quantes propostes concretes d'excursions, perquè tothom pugui veure que no és tan difícil, ni tan car, que és un esport assequible a tots i que ens portarà moltes gratificacions. La segona part del llibre la conforma un seguit d'excursions per tot Catalunya, una per Andorra i una altra per Menorca, amb informacions sobre la comarca, la seva orografia o aspecte natural, i la indicació de les hípiques existents que sempre marcaran la sortida i l'arribada dels itineraris proposats. La tercera part de l'obra és una mena d'agenda comentada amb un seguit d'adreces, llocs web, dates i llocs interessants per a tothom a qui li agradin els cavalls.
