Title: New Organization: VOCES – International Centre for the Study and Teaching of Lesser-Used Languages
Body: From http://www.fb10.uni-bremen.de/cestealul On 7 October, 2009, the International Centre for the Study and Teaching of Lesser-Used Languages was founded in Bremen/Germany. As an academic institution, VOCES is unique globally as it is the first centre devoted exclusively to the less widely spoken languages of the world. Once it is in working conditions, the centre in Bremen will offer opportunities not only for the community of linguists to focus on lesser-used languages in their research. VOCES is also intended as the institution where speech-communities can send representatives to receive adequate training in descriptive, historical and applied linguistics, field methodology, language planning, revitalisation, etc. to enable the speech-communities to take care of their language without the necessity to rely on the expertise of outsiders. Moreover, by language classes, seminars and other events, the centre serves the purpose of giving lesser-used languages more prominence in the general public perception. Thus, VOCES contributes to safeguarding the linguistic diversity of our world. Visit the new VOCES website at http://www.fb10.uni-bremen.de/cestealul

Title: Book: Gendered Identities and Immigrant Language Learning
Body: From http://www.multilingual-matters.com/display.asp?isb=9781847692139 Gendered Identities and Immigrant Language Learning by Julia Menard-Warwick Publisher: Multilingual Matters Summary: Based on participant observation in a California English as a Second Language family literacy program, this ethnographic study examines how the complexly gendered life histories of immigrant adults shaped their participation in both the English language classroom and the education of their children, within the contemporary sociohistorical context of increasing Latin American immigration to the United States. Through outlining the connections between (gendered) identity work and language learning, this study builds theoretical and empirical justification for teachers to negotiate classroom practice with each community of learners, responding to students' individual goals, histories, and lives outside the classroom.
