Download or read book The ESL Writer s Handbook 2nd Ed written by Janine Carlock and published by University of Michigan Press ELT. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ESL Writer’s Handbook is a reference work for ESL students who are taking college-level courses. Because its purpose is to provide help with the broad variety of writing questions students may have when working on school assignments, the text focuses on English for Academic Purposes. Unlike other handbooks on the market, this book’s sole purpose is to address the issues of second language learners. The spiral-bound Handbook complements a student writer’s dictionary, thesaurus, and grammar reference book. It would be suitable as a text for an advanced ESL writing course when used together with the companion Workbook (978-0-472-03726-1). The new edition features significant revisions to Sections 3 and 4; in particular, both APA and MLA style guides have been updated and new sample papers for each are included. The new edition includes new and revised exercises and many new samples of student writing. Like its predecessor, the 2nd Edition has these special features: The topic selection is based on ESL writers’ needs as observed by the authors over many years. The coverage of topics is more complete than the limited amount usually provided for ESL writers in first language or L1 handbooks. The explanatory language is appropriate for ESL students, in contrast to the more complex and idiomatic language of other English handbooks. Many of the examples of paragraphs, essays, research papers, and exercise sentences were written by ESL students to help users realize that they too can become effective writers.
Download or read book English for Vocational Purposes written by Averil Coxhead and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English for Vocational Purposes provides a linguistic description of English in the context of the trades and investigates how this specialist language is used in real-world contexts. As the demand for English-speaking workers in the trades grows internationally, a major gap in the research on language in the trades is evident. Based on courses in construction and engineering at a polytechnic in New Zealand, this book offers an empirical response to this gap in research. Features of this book include: new research on linguistic features of written and spoken texts in trades education, with a special focus on discourse, visual elements of written texts and vocabulary; real-life examples of the language in context, along with implications for teaching and learning and a chapter devoted to putting research findings into practice; qualitative and quantitative data to support examples and shed light on the most complex aspects of English as a trades language; supplementary material online which includes technical word lists in areas of carpentry, plumbing, automotive technology and fabrication (welding). Paving the way for a new research agenda in the field of ESP, English for Vocational Purposes is key reading for advanced students, researchers and practitioners in the areas of ESP, trades education and vocational education.

Download or read book Serving Vocational ESL Students written by Robert J. Thomas and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on an applied research study encompassing an extensive literature review, telephone interviews with 50 key program administrators, and site visits at 9 community colleges, this handbook describes proven, effective techniques for providing vocational education to limited English proficient (LEP) adults in a community college setting. An introductory chapter focuses on basic issues and concerns, such as understanding the diverse demographics of LEP students, welcoming them to the campus, and balancing institutional mission, resources, and capabilities. Chapter 2 looks at ways to foster a multicultural environment that serves not only LEP students, but the campus community as a whole. While chapter 3 investigates the challenges associated with planning and implementing programs and services for LEP students, chapter 4 provides a detailed discussion of instructional options, components, and strategies. Chapters 5 and 6 examine instructional support and support services, respectively, focusing on the design and adaptation of services that meet LEP students' unique needs, the development of related institutional policies, and the provision of specialized training for faculty and staff. Assessment and evaluation is the topic of chapter 7, which addresses the challenges involved with conducting useful program evaluations, selecting standardized tests for LEP students, and ensuring that ability-to-benefit tests do not unfairly exclude them from financial aid opportunities. Following an examination of collaboration within the college and with external agencies in chapter 8, chapter 9 considers funding policy issues. Each chapter includes references. (MPH)
