Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many fields of today's scientific research there are scholars who deal with symbolic systems such as painting music or verbal languages. No matter what the main content of every single discipline may be, the real challenge is to build up something like a general theory for languages. Is is in this context that we may place the studies of some important philosophers such as Janos S. Petofi and Nelson Goodman or-in another respect--Willard Orman Quine and Donald Davidson, who are taken into consideration by the author of this work. The book is organized by using an original mix of theoretical starting points (about the destinies of philogy, translation, the theory of notation) and of practical text-analyses (of Greek music and of popular religious painting). The result of such a path is the outline of a new theory of sign and communication called 'editor theory'. Contents: Classical phiology--Text-semiotics Philosophy of language--Pictorial texts Ancient Greek music--Translation studies Theory of communication--Multimedia.

Download or read book The Psychology of Science Text Comprehension written by José Otero and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume's goal is to provide readers with up-to-date information on the research and theory of scientific text comprehension. It is widely acknowledged that the comprehension of science and technological artifacts is very difficult for both children and adults. The material is conceptually complex, there is very little background knowledge for most individuals, and the materials are often poorly written. Therefore, it is no surprise that students are turned off from learning science and technology. Given these challenges, it is important to design scientific text in a fashion that fits the cognitive constraints of the learner. The enterprise of textbook design needs to be effectively integrated with research in discourse processing, educational technology, and cognitive science. This book takes a major step in promoting such an integration. This volume: *provides an important integration of research and theory with theoretical, methodological, and educational applications; *includes a number of chapters that cover how science text information affects mental representations and strategies; *introduces important suggestions about how text design and new technologies can be thought of as pedagogical features; and *establishes academic text taxonomies and a consensus of the criteria to organize inferences and other mental mechanisms.

Download or read book Integrating Young Adult Literature through the Common Core Standards written by Rachel L. Wadham and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-01-07 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book advocates for a stronger role for young-adult literature in ELA classrooms, compellingly documenting how this body of work meets both the needs of adolescent students and the demands of the common core for complex texts and tasks. Integrating Young Adult Literature through the Common Core Standards provides a compelling template for teachers that uses young adult literature and inquiry learning to meet students' needs and the demands of the common core standards. The first part of the book addresses the widely adopted common core state standards by examining closely the standards' model of text complexity and demonstrating how young adult literature can fill the requirements of this model. The second part provides theoretical discussions and analysis of the standards as well as concrete applications of young adult literature within the classroom in order to give school professionals a comprehensive understanding of how young adult literature and the standards can work together. The book empowers schools and teachers to make intelligent, informed decisions about texts and instructional practices that benefit their students. Finally, the authors explore a powerful teaching approach that integrates current understandings about learning, young adult literature, and the common core standards in a way that will facilitate greater learning and understanding in English classrooms.
