This book was released on 2007 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce travail est né d'une interrogation sur la place et le rôle du médiateur et de la langue maternelle dans une association interculturelle. Nous avons divisé notre travail en trois grandes parties. Tout d'abord, nous avons abordé la question de la langue maternelle. Qu'est-ce que c'est la langue maternelle ? En quoi est-elle particulière et qu'est-ce qui la rend unique ? Une recherche ethnographique du terrain s'impose. Dans un deuxième temps, nous avons évoqué alors des questions sur la diversité culturelle, ainsi que de la façon dont les décalages culturels puissent produire des malentendus entre les protagonistes. Nous avons démonté cette hypothèse, à travers une situation, que nous avons pu observer sur notre terrain. Dans un troisième temps, nous nous sommes penchée sur la question de la médiation et du médiateur interculturel. Qui est le médiateur ? Quelle est l'importance de la médiation ? Quel est le rôle du médiateur dans une association interculturelle ? Nous avons essayé de répondre à ces questions en nous basant sur nos observations sur le terrain, ainsi que sur les témoignages des médiateurs et des autres membres de l'équipe. Même si nous nous sommes appuyée sur plusieurs disciplines, nous avons essayé d'aborder notre sujet de recherche d'un point de vue anthropologique. Ainsi, nous avons tissé un lien entre les différentes notions : la,gue maternelle, culture et médiation interculturelle, qui constituent les piliers de notre travail.

LIDDICOAT, Martine Derivry-Plard et Research Network ReN-AILA and published by Editions des Archives contemporaines. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage collectif et bilingue anglais/français s’avère tout à fait inédit tant dans son contenu que dans sa forme. Il ne s’agit pas de textes traduits du français vers l’anglais et inversement mais d’une proposition de voyage conceptuel dans deux langues de travail qui ont médié les échanges de ce collectif de chercheurs en didactique des langues tout en accueillant les autres langues en présence (notamment le japonais, l’indonésien, l’arabe, l’allemand) qui ont chacune également apporté leurs nuances et leurs renversements de perspective. La juxtaposition éditoriale apparente n’est pas par conséquent une traduction des textes dont la direction de ce qui est traduit n’est jamais anodine, mais une co-construction en deux langues de travail d’un collectif de recherche plurilingue. Comment les concepts de médiation interculturelle, de lien social entre des locuteurs de langues diverses, de création de sens et de restructuration des significations opèrent-ils ? Comment sont-ils mobilisés à partir de travaux empiriques et d’études de cas construites dans des contextes culturels tout autant divers et dans lesquels se meuvent les locuteurs-acteurs plurilingues ? Ce sont ces multiples entre-deux qui sont proposés par ce collectif afin de mieux circonscrire leurs implications pratiques de médiation en didactique des langues. This bilingual English/French collective work is original in both its content and its form. It is not just an instance of texts translated from French into English and vice versa, but of a conceptual journey in two working languages which have mediated the exchanges of a group of researchers in language teaching and learning, that opened up to and welcomed the other languages present (notably Japanese, Indonesian, Arabic, German) which have each contributed their nuances and changes of perspective. As a result, the parallel layout that has been used is not simply a translation of texts, the direction of which is never without consequences, but a co-construction in two working languages by a plurilingual research collective. It considers how the concepts of intercultural mediation, the social ties between speakers of different languages, and making and restructuring meanings operate. It also considers how are they mobilised in empirical work and case studies constructed in equally diverse cultural contexts in which plurilingual speakers-actors move. These are the multiple interrelationships that are proposed by this collective work in order to better delineate the practical implications of mediation in language teaching and learning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au moment ou linguistes et didacticiens s'affrontent à propos de la notion de langue-culture, Renaud Dumont tente de démontrer qu'on peut et qu'on doit éviter la rupture. Instrument de communication, la langue est aussi un champ, et parfois même un chant, d'insertion sociale et culturelle. C'est cet itinéraire difficile, seule voie d'accès à l'appropriation d'une langue par un sujet parlant qui en fait SA langue, qui est décrit ici, à la lumière d'expériences vécues en terres étrangères.

This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The linguistic integration of migrants affects every aspect of settling in a new country (employment, health, etc.). The aim of this collection of texts is to propose a number of specific measures member states can take to help adult migrants become acquainted with the language of the host country. The main focus is on organising language courses that meet migrants’ real communication needs. It is not enough for authorities simply to consider the technical aspects of such courses, they should also design and conduct them in accordance with the fundamental values of the Council of Europe. A number of issues concerning the linguistic integration of adult migrants are presented here, beginning with the notion of linguistic integration itself. Family reunion, the nature of citizenship and the function of language tests, among others, are dealt with from the point of view of language and language use. Readers are invited to reflect on the type of language competences that need to be acquired as well as an appropriate use of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. The collection also sets out approaches and instruments designed to assist in implementing effective policies.

Download or read book Handbook of Multilingualism and Multiculturalism written by Geneviève Zarate and published by Archives contemporaines. This book was released on 2011 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Built around the concept of linguistic and cultural plurality, this book defines language as an instrument of action and symbolic power. Plurality is conceived here as : a complex array of voices, perspectives and approaches that seeks to preserve the complexity of the multilingual and multicultural enterprise, including language learning and teaching ; a coherent system of relationships among various languages, research traditions and research sites that informs qualitative methods of inquiry into multilingualism and its uses in everyday life ; a view of language as structured sociohistorical object, observable from several simultaneous spatiotemporal standpoints, such as that of daily interactions or that which sustains the symbolic power of institutions. This book is addressed to teacher trainers, young researchers, decision makers, teachers concerned with the role of languages in the evolution of societies and educational systems. It aims to elicit discussion by articulating practices, field observations and analyses based on a multidisciplinary conceptual framework.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ECML's Languages for social cohesion programme (2004-2007) involved approximately 4500 language professionals from Europe and beyond. This publication focuses on key developments in language education promoted through the work of the European Centre for Modern Languages of the Council of Europe (ECML). It serves three main functions. Firstly, it summarises the ECML's contributions to fostering linguistic and cultural diversity in European societies. Secondly, it contains the proceedings of the ECML Conference, held in September 2007 at the University of Graz, to communicate the results of this programme to the wider public. Thirdly, it provides a preview of the projects which comprise the next programme of the ECML (2008-2011): 'Empowering language professionals: competences - networks - impact - quality'. In this way the publication both provides an overview of current issues and trends in European language teaching and indicates perspectives for the future.
Download or read book Philosophy in a Time of Terror written by Giovanna Borradori and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for Philosophy in a Time of Terror was born hours after the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna Borradori sat down with Jürgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time, Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the greatest intellects of the century at work.
Download or read book Reflexive Translation Studies written by Silvia Kadiu and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decades, translation studies have increasingly focused on the ethical dimension of translational activity, with an emphasis on reflexivity to assert the role of the researcher in highlighting issues of visibility, creativity and ethics. In Reflexive Translation Studies, Silvia Kadiu investigates the viability of theories that seek to empower translation by making visible its transformative dimension; for example, by championing the visibility of the translating subject, the translator’s right to creativity, the supremacy of human translation or an autonomous study of translation. Inspired by Derrida’s deconstructive thinking, Kadiu presents practical ways of challenging theories that argue reflexivity is the only way of developing an ethical translation. She questions the capacity of reflexivity to counteract the power relations at play in translation (between minor and dominant languages, for example) and problematises affirmative claims about (self-)knowledge by using translation itself as a process of critical reflection. In exploring the interaction between form and content, Reflexive Translation Studies promotes the need for an experimental, multi-sensory and intuitive practice, which invites students, scholars and practitioners alike to engage with theory productively and creatively through translation.

Download or read book Communication and Information Technology in intercultural Language Teaching written by Mariusz Marczak and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topic of this book is in congruence with the current trends in foreign language education worldwide. On the one hand, it tackles the concept and implementation of intercultural language teaching; on the other, it analyses the circumstances in which information and communication technology may be utilised in the contemporary EFL classroom. Both intercultural teaching and Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) have been promoted by national/international educational documents in Europe, the USA and Asia, and endorsed by international organisations, including the Council of Europe and UNESCO. This book constitutes a pioneering attempt at establishing the role of ICT in English language and culture teaching within the Polish education system. However, the research instruments used within both research modules are applicable to other education systems worldwide, while the results obtained have implications for intercultural and computer-assisted language education in international contexts. The research results presented in the book highlight to the broad EFL profession a wide range of issues relating to the use of ICT in the foreign language classroom. They also offer materials writers, software designers and EFL teachers criteria with which to evaluate the intercultural component of CALL software.
