Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our everyday life, communicative processes are relevant in almost all situations. It is important to know whether you should say something which is adequate in the situation or whether it is better to say nothing at all. Communicative competence is fundamental for a successful life in our society as it is of great importance for all areas of life. Therefore, it is not surprising that communicative competence is the subject of many theoretical and empirical approaches and, in consequence, research on this topic is diverse. We focus our contributions on linguistic aspects of communication. In the centre of interest are linguistic oriented performances of different forms of communicative competence, language acquisition, and language disorders. The topics of this book concern the description of methods for studying language in the brain, the interaction between language and cognition, discourse acquisition of children, literacy acquisition and its precursors, the use and acquisition of the sign language, models and training of writing and reading, nonverbal communicative competence, media competence, communication training, developmental dyslexia, the treatment of stuttering, and the description of language disorders.

Download or read book Communication et interculturalit Cultures et interactions interpersonnelles written by FRAME Alexander and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sous l’influence de la mondialisation, les contacts entre cultures et l’hybridation culturelle ne cessent de croître, projetant l’interculturalité au centre de l’espace public. Alors que certaines approches exclusivement focalisées sur les différences culturelles décrivent comment se comporter auprès de groupes étrangers, Communication et interculturalité analyse la manière dont les individus s’adaptent en tenant compte des différentes cultures et identités (professionnelles, organisationnelles, ethniques, régionales, familiales, etc...) qui constituent des repères sémiotiques et symboliques pouvant être mis au service du sens. Il explore ainsi la relation entre cultures, identités et communication interpersonnelle pour comprendre les dynamiques de construction de sens qui émergent dans une interaction réelle. Destiné à un public scientifique mais également à toute personne qui s’interroge sur les relations entre cultures et communication, cet ouvrage développe une approche sémiopragmatique novatrice de la communication interculturelle, inscrite dans le champ naissant de la culture-interaction.

This Handbook explains the conceptual basis of intercultural and plurilingual learning, describes core pedagogical concepts, discusses different learning and teaching approaches, and provides the historical background for various methods and theories. The authors discuss how policy and pedagogy can adapt to the shifting demographics of local student populations, address new trends and evolving themes, and explore contemporary topics such as translanguaging, intercomprehension, technology-enhanced learning, language policy, and more. The Handbook of Plurilingual and Intercultural Language Learning is essential reading for students, educators, and researchers in applied linguistics, language teaching and learning, plurilingualism/multilingualism, TESOL, cognitive linguistics, language policy, language acquisition, and intercultural communication.

Download or read book Bonobos written by Brian Hare and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bonobo, along with the chimpanzee, is one of our two closest living relatives. Their relatively narrow geographic range (south of the Congo River in the Democratic Republic of Congo) combined with the history of political instability in the region, has made their scientific study extremely difficult. In contrast, there are dozens of wild and captive sites where research has been conducted for decades with chimpanzees. Because data sets on bonobos have been so hard to obtain and so few large-scale studies have been published, the majority of researchers have treated chimpanzee data as being representative of both species. However, this misconception is now rapidly changing. With relative stability in the DRC for over a decade and a growing community of bonobos living in zoos and sanctuaries internationally, there has been an explosion of scientific interest in the bonobo with dozens of high impact publications focusing on this fascinating species. This research has revealed exactly how unique bonobos are in their brains and behavior, and reminds us why it is so important that we redouble our efforts to protect the few remaining wild populations of this iconic and highly endangered great ape species.
Download or read book Communication Competence written by Annegret F. Hannawa and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost everything that matters to humans is derived from and through communication. Just because people communicate every day, however, does not mean that they are communicating competently. In fact, evidence indicates that there is a substantial need for better interpersonal skills among a significant proportion of the populace. Furthermore, "dark side" experiences in everyday life abound, and features of modern society pose new challenges that make the concept of communication competence increasingly complex. The Handbook of Communication Competence brings together scholars from across the globe to examine these various facets of communication competence, including its history, its essential components, and its applications in interpersonal, group, institutional, and societal contexts. The book provides a state-of-the-art review for scholars and graduate students, as well as practitioners in counseling, developmental, health care, educational, intercultural, and human resource management contexts, illustrating that communication competence is vital to health, relationships, and all collective human endeavors.

Various chapters examine the particular challenges of differentiation, teaching grammar, encouraging pupils to use the target language together and teaching a foreign language to children with special educational needs. The final section discusses ways of developing creativity in the modern languages classroom through the use of drama, creative writing and role play. Anyone involved in teaching modern languages will find this reader a rich source for reflection and good practice.
