Parents, Personalities and Power

The Cambridge Handbook of Endangered Languages
It is generally agreed that about 7,000 languages are spoken across the world today and at least half may no longer be spoken by the end of this century. This state-of-the-art Handbook examines the reasons behind this dramatic loss of linguistic diversity, why it matters, and what can be done to document and support endangered languages. The volume is relevant not only to researchers in language endangerment, language shift and language death, but to anyone interested in the languages and cultures of the world. It is accessible both to specialists and non-specialists: researchers will find cutting-edge contributions from acknowledged experts in their fields, while students, activists and other interested readers will find a wealth of readable yet thorough and up-to-date information.
Language Policy in Business
Language Policy in Business: Discourse, ideology and practice provides a critical sociolinguistic and discursive understanding of language policy in a minority language context. Focusing on Welsh-English bilingualism in private sector businesses in Wales, the book unpacks the circulating discourses, ideologies and practices of promoting bilingualism as a sociocultural and economic resource in the globalised knowledge economy. It sheds light on businesses as ideological sites for struggles over language revitalisation, which has been characterised by tensions and discursive shifts from essentialist ideologies about language, identity, nation and territory, to an increased commodification of bilingualism. The book is premised on the understanding that language is a focal point for articulating and living out historical power relationships and inequalities, and that language policy processes are never apolitical. It adds to a body of literature about bilingualism in minority language contexts and, more broadly, about how the fields of politics, business and society are inextricably related.

Com fer un dossier d'aprenentatge de llengües?
Què és H2PAC? El model H2PAC resol propostes clau a partir d'ACTIVITATS. Aquesta forma d'aprenentatge parteix d'un REPTE: l'activitat que hauràs de resoldre. Per això et facilitem un contingut teòric, EL CONEIXEMENT IMPRESCINDIBLE, que t'ajudarà a entendre els conceptes essencials per a poder afrontar el desafiament plantejat inicialment. A més del contingut teòric, el model també et facilita LES SOLUCIONS, una proposta de resolució del repte exposat. Aquest manual és una guia per consolidar l'aprenentatge mitjançant un procés reflexiu. A partir d'unes pautes es proposa un estil de creació de dossier d'aprenentatge reflexiu que ajudi a produir el discurs propi, amb un text escrit, oral o en format vídeo, dels aprenentatges.
