As Variedades do Português no Ensino de Português Língua Não Materna
By Christian Koch and Daniel Reimann
Published by narr\francke\attempto
Nos últimos anos, o ensino das variedades linguísticas tornou-se uma temática importante na didática e linguística aplicada para as línguas estrangeiras. O português como língua policêntrica com uma forte variação diatópica não se exclui deste discurso. Além da questão clássica Que português ensinar e aprender? referindo-se às duas variedades padrão de Portugal e do Brasil, novas perspetivas enfocam o conjunto global das variedades lusófonas e as outras dimensões de variação linguística. Neste volume reúnem-se contributos que abordam a temática em contextos de ensino secundário e superior na Alemanha, em Portugal, na Galiza e em Timor-Leste. Reflexões teóricas, estudos empíricos, análises de manuais e propostas didáticas demonstram a extensão do discurso sobre as variedades no ensino de PLNM.

Title: Research Summary: The Importance of Being Visual in Early Parent-child Communication
Body:
Here is a short summary article and video (in ASL) by Beatriys Wille based on a longer article:
This is a blog post about a longer article: Wille, B., Van Lierde, K. & Van Herreweghe, M. (2019). Parental Strategies Used in Communication With Their Deaf Infants. Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 35(2),165-183. https://doi.org/10.1177/0265659019852664
Summary: Hearing parents should receive training in visual communication and associated visual communication skills. Often their child is the first deaf person they meet, and some visual communication strategies linked to the visual mode (e.g. exaggerated waving, touching etc.) may violate their cultural norms. Hence, hearing parents do not automatically think of these strategies as useful. Therefore, deaf role models are best positioned to inform hearing parents on visual communication, sign language and Deaf culture.
