Don't forget! O. DEAN GREGORY FESTSCHRIFT FOR OCTOBER!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have started to receive working papers,
remembrances and other notes for inclusion
in October's "O. Dean Gregory Festschrift."
The biggest challenge has been to make certain
that every student, colleague and friend of
the late Dr. O. Dean Gregory is aware of this
upcoming event, so that all of us have a chance
to share information and honor his life and
his work in the field of English language
teaching and applied linguistics. Thank you
for helping to pass the word among your own
colleagues and acquaintances--you may be
surprised to find how many have ties to Dr. Gregory
through institutions ranging from Teachers College
Columbia University to the Applied English Center
at the University of Kansas, and through his
instrumental
role in the early development of ESL/EFL in Egypt,
Saudi Arabia and Indonesia. The deadline for
submissions of articles for the O. Dean Gregory
Festschrift is September 15, 2003. More information
is available at
http://www.ESLminiconf.net/june2003/deangregory.html .
Also, you can write to Festschrift@ESLminiconf.net .

Title: Internet and Global English(es) -- LLT issue
Body: From: "Jean LeLoup"
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS EXTENDED
Theme: The Internet and Global English(es)
Guest Editor: Denise Murray
This special issue of Language Learning & Technology will focus on research on the effect of the Internet on language use. While the theme recognizes "Global" English(es) as a reality, we welcome articles that problematize this concept. In what ways are the notions of "Global" English(es) reinforced or mitigated by the use of English on the Internet? What new English(es) are developing online? What new registers or genres are developing in computer mediated communication? What is the impact of globalization on the English teaching industry? What are the implications of Internet-specific language change for English language teaching?
Articles based on empirical research or proposing original theoretical
frameworks are welcome. Since LLT focuses on language learning and
teaching, it is expected that all articles will demonstrate the relevance of the findings or framework to language learning and teaching.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to
* how the Internet diffuses English(es) throughout the world
* how the Internet has affected English usage in online and offline
communication
* descriptions of new genres
* economic, political, and cultural ramifications of English use on the Internet
* teaching English via the Internet
* developing critical literacies through the Internet
* varieties of English for international communication(s)
* "Global" English in an historical context
* visual literacy and its role in online communication and English language teaching
If interested in submitting, please contact Denise Murray
(denise.murray@mq.edu.au).
Language Learning &Technology is published exclusively on the World Wide Web. You may see current or back issues, and take out your free

Title: Distance Education at Degree-Granting Postsecondary Institutions: 2000-2001

This report presents data on distance education at postsecondary

Data were collected on a variety of topics related to distance education, including the number and proportion of institutions offering distance education courses during the 20002001 12-month academic year, distance education enrollments and course offerings, and distance education degree and certificate programs.
To download, view and print the report as a pdf file, please visit:

Title: The Knowledge Loom
Body: From: "Anselmo Villanueva"
The Educational Alliance at Brown University has developed an
"award-winning" website that you may find useful and in which you can
participate by registering.
The Knowledge Loom http://knowledgeloom.org/crt/index.jsp
The Knowledge Loom is a place for educators worldwide to do the following:
- Review research that identifies best practices related to various themes.
- View stories about the practices in real schools/districts.
- Learn to replicate the success of these practices in your own organization.
- Add your own stories, knowledge, questions to the collections.
- Participate in online events and discussions.
- Discover supporting organizations and resources.
The Knowledge Loom is currently focusing on Culturally Responsive Teaching.
What is Culturally Responsive Teaching?
The notion of culturally responsive education is premised on the idea that culture is central to student learning. According to Gloria
Ladson-Billings, "It is an approach that empowers students intellectually, socially, emotionally, and politically by using cultural referents to impart knowledge, skills and attitudes." The use of cultural referents in teaching bridges and explains the mainstream culture, while valuing and recognizing the students' own cultures.
This link between culture and classroom instruction is derived from
evidence that cultural practices shape thinking processes, which serve as tools for learning within and outside of school (Hollins, l996). Thus, culturally responsive education recognizes, respects, and uses students' identities and backgrounds as meaningful sources (Nieto, 2000) for creating optimal learning environments.
The New England Equity Assistance Center (EAC) at the Education Alliance at Brown University presents research-based principles for effective practices that can be used in schools and districts to address Cultural Relevance in Teaching.
