Download or read book Uncovering the Logic of English A Common Sense Solution to America s Literacy Crisis written by Denise Eide and published by Logic of English, Inc. This book was released on 2011-01-27 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "English is so illogical!" It is generally believed that English is a language of exceptions. For many, learning to spell and read is frustrating. For some, it is impossible... especially for the 29% of Americans who are functionally illiterate. But what if the problem is not the language itself, but the rules we were taught? What if we could see the complexity of English as a powerful tool rather than a hindrance? --Denise Eide Uncovering the Logic of English challenges the notion that English is illogical by systematically explaining English spelling and answering questions like "Why is there a silent final E in have, large, and house?" and "Why is discussion spelled with -sion rather than -tion?" With easy-to-read examples and anecdotes, this book describes: - the phonograms and spelling rules which explain 98% of English words - how English words are formed and how this knowledge can revolutionize vocabulary development - how understanding the reasons behind English spelling prevents students from needing to guess The author's inspiring commentary makes a compelling case that understanding the logic of English could transform literacy education and help solve America's literacy crisis. Thorough and filled with the latest linguistic and reading research, Uncovering the Logic of English demonstrates why this systematic approach should be as foundational to our education as 1+1=2.

Download or read book Navigating English Grammar written by Anne Lobeck and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-10-11 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enables students to understand their assumptions and beliefs about the language they use every day In Navigating English Grammar, Anne Lobeck and Kristin Denham offer an engaging introduction to the linguistic study of the structure of English. Teaching basic grammatical analysis through inquiry rather than memorization, this popular textbook encourages students to use their intuitive knowledge of language to make their own discoveries about the grammatical categories add principles of the grammar of English. The book strikes a balance between basic descriptive grammar and syntactic theory, introducing students not only to the structure of English, but also in some cases to why English has the structure it does. Along the way, students discover how English has changed over time, and how it varies from speech community to speech community. Student-friendly chapters contain numerous examples drawn from different varieties of American English, which illustrate how English grammar is a dynamic system: perceptions of one variety as ‘better’ or ‘more correct’ than another, and notions of ‘standard’ and ‘non-standard’ English are socially constructed rather than based on linguistic fact. This edition is fully updated with new examples, new text excerpts from a diverse range of written genres and authors, and completely revised chapters and exercises. The book also includes an entirely new final capstone chapter designed to encourage students to apply what they have learned with more challenging practice exercises. Navigating English Grammar: A Guide to Analyzing Real Language, Second Edition is an excellent textbook for undergraduate courses in English grammar, English linguistics, and language education.

Download or read book English Classes in Slumber written by S.-H. Gyemyong Ahn and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains why some Korean high school students sleep during English classes in spite of the emphasized value of English in their society. It examines how this sleeping-in-class phenomenon can be understood by means of such marginalized students’ emic outlooks on themselves, the target language, their teachers, schools, and society/culture; and by means of the views of teachers who have experienced such in-class sleepers. To understand the phenomenon more holistically, it pursues a multi-disciplinary approach drawing on studies of demotivation and amotivation, psychological needs, and student experiences of schooling, as well as sociocultural theories of learning and agency and of interpersonal dynamics, among others. On the basis of a multi-modal analysis of interview data from the student and teacher participants, it theoretically interprets the phenomenon at the classroom (‘micro-’), school (‘meso-’) and society-culture (‘macro-’) levels. Taking a humanistic/existential approach to education, it subsequently presents a number of cultural actions that it advocates implementing in a situation-sensitive manner to help in-class sleepers and their educational institutions awaken from their chronic slumber. Lastly, it presents practical and theoretical implications for more humanistic pedagogy, and global studies of student disengagement, in English-as-a-foreign-language classes.
