Title: Book: Corpus Applications in Applied Linguistics
Body: From http://www.continuumbooks.com/books/detail.aspx?BookId=159033&SubjectId=989&Subject2Id=872 Corpus Applications in Applied Linguistics Edited by Ken Hyland, Chau Meng Huat, and Michael Handford Published by Continuum Description: Corpus linguistics is one of the most exciting approaches to studies in applied linguistics today. From its quantitative beginnings it has grown to become an essential aspect of research methodology in a range of fields, often combining with text analysis, CDA, pragmatics and organizational studies to reveal important new insights about how language works. This new book of specially commissioned chapters by academics from across the applied linguistics spectrum demonstrates the range and rigor of corpus research in applied linguistics. The volume captures some of the most stimulating and significant developments in the field, including chapters on language teaching, institutional and professional discourse, English as an International Language, translation, forensics and media studies. As a result it goes beyond traditional, limited presentations of corpus work and shows how corpora inform a diverse and growing number of applied linguistic domains.

Title: Book: Implementing Educational Language Policy in Arizona
Body: From http://www.multilingualmatters.com/display.asp?K=9781847697448 Implementing Educational Language Policy in Arizona: Legal, Historical and Current Practices in SEI Edited by M. Beatriz Arias and Christian J Faltis Published by Multilingual Matters This volume is a unique contribution to the study of language policy and education for English Learners because it focuses on the decade long implementation of “English Only” in Arizona. How this policy influences teacher preparation and classroom practice is the central topic of this volume. Scholars and researchers present their latest findings and concerns regarding the impact that a restrictive language policy has on critical areas for English Learners and diverse students. If a student’s language is sanctioned, do they feel welcome in the classroom? If teachers are only taught about subtractive language policy, will they be able to be tolerant of linguistic diversity in their classrooms? The implications of the chapters suggest that Arizona’s version of Structured English Immersion may actually limit English Learners access to English.

Title: Workshop: New Approaches to Grammar in Foreign Language Instruction
Body: New Approaches to Grammar in Foreign Language Instruction Workshop for Teachers of Foreign Languages Indiana University Bloomington, Indiana Friday, June 29, 2012 2-5 pm In this workshop for pre-service and in-service teachers of foreign languages in both pre-college and university/college programs, participants will explore alternative approaches to the teaching of grammar. We’ll try to move away from the explicit presentation and practice of grammatical rules, with its emphasis on production and on accuracy, and instead consider some other dimensions of grammar teaching: grammar as understanding; grammar as options; grammar as puzzle; grammar as play; and grammar as personal. The workshop will be conducted by Bill Johnston, Associate Professor of Comparative Literature at Indiana University and a leading specialist in methodology for instruction of less commonly taught languages (LCTLs). Together with Louis Janus, he founded the summer institute Developing Classroom Materials for LCTLs which has been offered continuously at the Center for Advanced Research on Language Acquisition (CARLA, University of Minnesota) since 1999. He has led workshops at CARLA, the International Conference on Language Teacher Education, and the TESOL Convention, while also serving for many years as a trainer for teachers of the Lakota language in North and South Dakota. Johnston’s publications in the field of foreign language pedagogy include Developing Materials for LCTLs (University of Minnesota, 2007) and, with co-author C. A. Buzelli, The Moral Dimensions of Teaching: Language, Power, and Culture in Classroom Interaction (RoutledgeFalmer, 2002). He is also a prolific translator of Polish poetry and fiction. Travel fellowships are available to pre-college Russian teachers who wish to attend the workshop. The fellowships will cover the cost of transportation between the teacher’s home and Bloomington, one night’s accommodation, and a small per diem to offset the cost of meals. We encourage all interested teachers to apply; however, preference will be given to applicants who currently teach Russian in Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Ohio, or Michigan and/or those who have not received such a fellowship in the past five years. To apply for a travel fellowship, please write to Mark Trotter at martrott at indiana dot edu. Deadline for applications is Friday, May 25, 2012.

At this point they are trying to assess the level of interest in such a program. Please read through the following two sets of questions. If your answer is yes to some of the questions in either set, perhaps you would be interested in having a mentor or serving as one. * Do you feel isolated because you are the only World Language teacher in your school or district? * Are you unsure of what the new State W.L. Standards are and how they incorporate the 3 Modes of Communication? * Are you curious about how to create formative and summative assessments in the 3 Modes? * Have you been wanting to tryout an Integrated Performance Assessment in your classroom, but needed some help from a colleague? * Would you like some support regarding instruction, assessment, technology, and/or classroom management? * Could you use information regarding teaching students with disabilities? * Would you like to have copies of ACTFL's Keys to the Classroom, and Keys to Assessment? * Would you like to earn CDE Re-certification credit for working with a CCFLT Mentor? If you answered yes to several of these questions, then perhaps you would like to be paired with a CCFLT World Language Mentor. If so, please click on this link to a very short survey and pilot program committee members will get back to you soon with more information: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/R8Y2MFC * Do you feel like you have a pretty good understanding of the new State W.L. standards and how they incorporate the 3 Modes of Communication? * Have you started writing formative and summative assessments in the 3 Modes in your own classroom? * Have you had a chance to pilot an Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA)? * Would you like to support another teacher who has questions regarding instruction, assessment, technology and/or classroom management? * Would you like to attend a training session for Mentors? * Would you like to earn CDE Recertification credit for working with a CCFLT Mentee? If you answered yes to several of these questions, then perhaps you would like to serve as a CCFLT World Language Mentor. If so, please click on this link to a very short survey and the committee members will get back to you soon with more information: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/R8Y2MFC If you have any problems with the link to the survey, please contact David Burrous at d303burrous at msn dot com Thank you, The CCFLT Pilot Mentor Program Committee David Burrous, Anne Becher, Greg Breitbarth, and Stefan Betley [CCFLT] World Language Teacher Mentoring Program Pilot.
