Language Assessment Literacy
The field of language testing and assessment has recognized the importance and underlying theoretical and practical underpinnings of language assessment literacy (LAL), an area that is gradually coming to prominence. This book addresses issues that promote the concept of LAL for language research, teaching, and learning, covering a range of topics. It brings together 14 chapters based on high-stakes and classroom-based studies authored by academics, professionals and researchers in the field. The text examines diverse issues through a multifaceted approach, presenting high-quality contributions that fill a gap in a research area that has long been in need of theoretical and empirical attention.
Sawang Sinawang
SAWANG SINAWANG ~ Sebuah klimaks kehidupan yang menggugah kesadaran bahwa dunia dan semua pertunjukannya hanyalah fatamorgana. Ia hanyalah pembiasan yang membuat sesuatu yang tidak ada menjadi seolah ada, dan kemudian siapa pun akan terluka, remuk, kecewa karena telah mempercayainya. SAWANG SINAWANG ~ Tameng efektif kelaliman, berkilau bagai kealiman. Perendah diri untuk semua yang semu, juga penyombong untuk segala yang tak tentu. Bagaimana kau memandangku dan aku memandangimu. Lalu kita temukan banyak kesamaan dan sirna berjuta perbedaan. SAWANG SINAWANG ~ Hancurnya monopoli kaya atau miskin, sedih atau bahagia, berharap atau putus asa. Semua melebur menyadari dua sisi. Tak ada yang dapat dibanggakan, dan tak ada yang pantas disesalkan. Kau dan aku kembali bersatu, berlabuh di pantai syahdu, melayang di langit biru. SAWANG SINAWANG ~ Semoga menjadi bekal untuk saling memberi kekuatan, kasih, dan cinta tanpa alasan maupun kepentingan. Selamat bangkit meski di lembah keterbatasan. KARENA KITA, AKU ADA.

Academic and Educational Development
Part of the well-known Staff and Educational Development Series, this practice oriented book brings together leading research and evaluation approaches and supporting case studies from leading educational researchers and innovative teachers. With much emphasis on change, innovation and developing best practice in higher education, it is essential that those involved in actually developing, researching or implementing approaches to teaching, learning or management, are informed by the experiences of others. The emphasis of this book is on changing practice in HE; how developments come about; what research underpins desirable development; and the impact of development of student learning, staff expertise and institutional practice and policy. Specifically, the book is developed in two themed parts: Part A, Supporting change within subjects and departments. Part B, Supporting change within institutions and the wider environment.
Sexuality, Gender and Schooling
This book's central argument presents educationalists with new ways of understanding the significance of sexuality and gender in young people's lives and suggests ways in which this knowledge is useful in practice.
Coaching and Management Techniques in Athletics
The process of coaching has been conceptualised, studied, and analysed in a wide variety of ways. The most common theoretical perspective used by researchers has been to view coaching as a decision-making process. Successful coaching has been described as the practice of making correct decisions within the constraints of a highly complex social and dynamic environment. In a general sense, coaches articulate a purpose and establish unique mechanisms for achieving success. This book examines the role of a coach or manager in sports and athletics.
Managing Quality in Qualitative Research
Uwe Flick takes you through the steps in method and design to ensure quality and reliability throughout the entire research process.
Assessment, Equity, and Opportunity to Learn
Providing all students with a fair opportunity to learn (OTL) is perhaps the most pressing issue facing U.S. education. Moving beyond conventional notions of OTL - as access to content, often content tested; access to resources; or access to instructional processes - the authors reconceptualize OTL in terms of interaction among learners and elements of their learning environments. Drawing on sociocultural, sociological, psychometric, and legal perspectives, this book provides historical critique, theory and principles, and concrete examples of practice through which learning, teaching, and assessment can be re-envisioned to support fair OTL for all students. This book offers educators, researchers, and policy analysts new to sociocultural perspectives a readable and engaging introduction to fresh ideas for conceptualizing, enhancing, and assessing OTL; encourages those who already draw on sociocultural resources to focus attention on OTL and assessment; and nurtures collaboration among members of discourse communities who have rarely engaged one another's work.
Age and the Rate of Foreign Language Learning
This book examines the various ways in which age affects the process and the product of foreign language learning in a school setting. It presents studies that cover a wide range of topics, from phonetics to learning strategies. It will be of interest to students and researchers working in SLA research, language planning and language teaching.
Intersections in Language Planning and Policy
This volume encompasses the range of issues encountered by language scholars who teach and research in departments of languages and cultures within the higher education system, predominantly in Australia, but touching other universities worldwide. Related studies on language planning, methodology or pedagogy have focused on one or more of these same issues, but rarely on their totality. Intersections as a metaphor running discreetly through the essays in this volume, connects them all to a lived reality. The field of languages and cultures, as it is practised and reflected upon in Australian universities, is essentially an interdisciplinary and interconnecting space - one in which linguistic...
Cognition and Fact
Within the last ten years, the interest of historians and philosophers of science in the epistemological writings of the Polish medical microbiologist Ludwik Fleck (1896-1961), who had up to then been almost completely unknown, has advanced with great strides. His main writings on epistemological questions were published in the mid-1930's, but they remained almost unnoticed. Today, however, one may rightly call Fleck a 'classical' figure both of episte mology and of the historical sociology of science, one whose works are comparable with Popper's Logic of Scientific Discovery or Merton's pioneer ing study of the relations among economics, Puritanism, and natural science, both also originally published in the mid-1930's. The story of this book of 'materials on Ludwik Fleck' is also the story of the reception of Ludwik Fleck. In this volume, some essential materials which have been produced by that reception have been gathered together. We will sketch both the reception and the materials.
