Title: Book: The Development of Grammar
Body: From http://www.benjamins.com/cgi-bin/t_bookview.cgi?bookid=HSM%2011 The Development of Grammar: Language acquisition and diachronic change Edited by Esther Rinke and Tanja Kupisch Published by the John Benjamins Publishing Company Description: This volume focuses on different aspects of language development. The contributions are concerned with similarities and differences between first and second language acquisition, the acquisition of sentence structure and functional categories, cross-linguistic influence in bilingual first language acquisition as well as the relation between language acquisition, language contact and diachronic change. The recurrent topic of the volume is the link between linguistic variation and the limitation of structural variability in the framework of a well-defined theory of language. In this respect, the volume opens up new perspectives for future research. Visit the publisher’s website at http://www.benjamins.com/cgi-bin/t_bookview.cgi?bookid=HSM%2011

Title: Passage Rating Seminar
Body: From http://larc.sdsu.edu/passage-rating-seminar Passage Rating Seminar at the Language Acquisition Resource Center in San Diego The 5-day training (July 18-22), with mornings required and afternoons optional for additional work identifying and rating target language passages, looks at various types of text (print and media) to determine how they map onto the various levels of proficiency, from the ACTFL Novice (ILR 0) to the ACTFL Advanced (ILR 2). The optional afternoon sessions focus on the levels beyond the ACTFL Advanced level, considering properties of the Professional (Superior and Distinguished, or ILR 3 and 4) level texts. Participants will be better equipped to choose authentic materials for the levels of language they are teaching, as well as to understand the properties of text that students are capable of producing.
