Title: Resources for Language Class from Wikipedia
Body: Editor's note: The following message, recently posted on the AATG listserv, was intended for teachers of German; however, the source also provides information in Japanese, Swedish, Polish, Spanish, French, Dutch, Portuguese, and Italian. ---- I just accidentally stumbled onto another cool thing to do with Wikipedia (the free online encyclopedia available in umpteen languages). I was browsing de.wikipedia.org, when I noticed that the the birthdate of an author I was reading about was linked. (Arno Schmidt 18. Januar, ) When I clicked on the date, I was taken to http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/18._Januar a great list of info in German a la "This day in history". So I checked out my son's and wife's birthdays too. For every day of the calendar, wikipedia lists historical events, holidays around the world, birthdays, death days...a rich resource...IN GERMAN!! (and in English too, ie http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_18th). DesPresberry, Byron. [AATG-L] a cool way to use my favorite online encyclopedia. American Association of Teachers of German listserv. AATG@listserv.iupui.edu (8 May 2005).

Title: Review: Ebonics: The Urban Education Debate
Body: From: http://linguistlist.org/issues/16/16-1928.html Editors: Ramirez, J. David; Wiley, Terence G.; de Klerk, Gerda; Lee, Enid; and Wright, Wayne E. Reviewed by: Nkonko Kamwangamalu, Department of English, Howard University INTRODUCTION First published in 2000, Ebonics: The Urban Education Debate is an edited collection of 6 papers and 6 sets of documents aimed at providing a scholarly response to the controversy that erupted in 1996 in Oakland, California over the status and role of Ebonics in the education of African American (AA) students. The contributors to this volume view Ebonics as a non-standard variety of the English language (but see an opposite view in Kifano and Smith's paper, pp. 62-95). They argue that schools need to become more aware of language diversity and variation and use Ebonics as abridge in helping AA students learn Standard English to improve their academic performance in general, and in reading and language arts in particular.
