Abstract:
The paper demonstrates through specific examples the peculiarities of intermedial ‘language’ employed by E.M. Forster to enlarge the contextual field of his novel Where Angels Fear to Tread (1905). Thus, through the application of the close reading technique and hermeneutical method, it covers the specificity of pictorial depictions and theatrical medium, as well as intermedial references integrated into the canvas of the literary artefact to extend its contextual field, draw borders between cultures, deepen the conflicts. It concludes that the writer applies specific intermedial language patterns and frameworks to extend the context of the plot and deepen the conflicts and oppositions between English and Italian, own and strange, old and new.

Abstract:
The article deals with the issue of integrated teaching of foreign languages and fine arts to primary learners in the New Ukrainian school that seeks to overcome postcolonial and modernist traditions of education and gradually implements postmodern education principles. In this regard, the article highlights the use of such postmodernist trends as simulation, free interpretation, and establishment of personal associative connections in integrated teaching of foreign languages and fine arts. Such a need is based on the hypothesis that primary learners are extremely sensitive to the above-mentioned trends and can enrich their vocabulary via consecutive study-visualization of foreign language words and their denotations. Research methods include theoretical analysis of relevant sources, pedagogical modelling of stages, special methods of integrated teaching of foreign languages and fine arts, prognostic methods. The article presents the step-by-step process of integrated teaching of foreign language and fine arts. It proves that integrative teaching in primary school thematically and methodically coincides with the three-stage process of acquiring the basics of foreign languages and fine arts. Besides, the article contains practical recommendations on the organization of integrated teaching of foreign languages and fine arts. The international relevance of the article lies in projecting the postmodern education principles on didactic realities of developing countries that need to learn the experience of educational transformation based on Ukraine’s example, as well as in implementing these principles in integrated teaching of foreign languages and fine arts.

Abstract:
Academic achievement has been linked to executive functions. However, it is necessary to clarify the different predictive role that executive functions have on general and specific academic achievement and to determine the most predictive executive factor of this academic achievement. The relationship and predictive role between executive functions and their components (initiative, working memory, task monitoring, organization of materials, flexibility, emotional control, inhibition, self-monitoring) with academic achievement are analyzed in this study, both globally and specifically in the areas of Language Arts and Mathematics, in 133 students from 6 to 9 years of age. The relationship obtained in Pearson’s correlation analysis does not differ substantially between overall achievement (r = 0.392) and specific achievement (r = 0.361, r = 0.361), but task monitoring (r = 0.531, r = 0.455, r = 0.446) and working memory (r = 0.512, r = 0.475, r = 0.505) had a greater relationship with general and specific achievement. Finally, regression analyses based on correlation results indicate that executive functions predict general academic performance (14.7%) and specific performance (12.3%, 12.2%) for Language Arts and Mathematics, respectively. Furthermore, working memory and task supervision represent 32.5% of general academic performance, 25.5% of performance in Language Arts, and 27.1% of performance in Mathematics. In conclusion, this study yielded exploratory data on the possible executive functions (task supervision and working memory) responsible for good general academic achievements and specific academic achievements in Mathematics and Language Arts.

Chethiya is a brown, gay, disabled (ultimately), abused young man from Sri Lanka, who comes to the U.S. on a full scholarship. His dream is to be a Broadway star, but after coming out of his first relationship with an emotionally abusive, alcoholic man, he is diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a chronic, degenerative neurological disease that results in demyelination, causing progressive debilitation. The story is divided into six chapters that narrate his life under various marginalizations he is subjected to, culminating in traumatization. The story, however, ends on a positive note of redemption with the narrator looking forward to his days to come.

Abstract:
Problem. Most of the diagnostic tools available for the assessment of language and cognition in early childhood education have been designed for fluent English-speakers. Few instruments include items appropriate to the needs of Spanish-speaking children with limited English Proficiency (LEP). Available Spanish language test are translations of English tools and have not been standardized among the Hispanic population. Classroom teachers and education specialists need an appropriately validated Spanish test for educational planning and programing of LEP Spanish-speaking children. Purpose. The purpose of this study was three dimensional: (1) to develop a functional adaptation of a criterion-referenced diagnostic test for the assessment of language and cognitive skills of preschool LEP Spanish-speaking children for educational planning, (2) to establish validity and reliability of the adapted Spanish criterion-referenced test and two norm-referenced tests to be used by educational diagnosticians for the assessment of language and learning abilities of young LEP Spanish-speaking pupils. Procedures. The test Evaluacion de Languaje y Habilidades Cognoscitivas en Edad Pre-Escolar (ELCEP) was developed as the Spanish adaptation of the Preschool Language-Cognitive Skills Assessment for Curriculum Entry (PLACE), by John Logfren (1978). The first draft of ELCEP was field tested and revised in preparation for validation of six Spanish-English bilingual professionals from different fields of education. A sample of 35 LEP Spanish-speaking children was used to establish the reliability of the ELCEP. A sample of 100 LEP Spanish-speaking children was used to establish concurrent validity of the ELCEP, and the two norm-referenced test, Prueba Illinois de Habilidades Psicolinguisticas (PIHP) and Bateria Woodcock de Proficiencia del Idioma or Woodcock Language Proficiency Battery Spanish (WLPB-Span.) Findings. The level of significance for rejecting the null hypotheses was set at .05. No significant differences were found between male and female scores, or between age group scores from the reliability sample of the ELCEP. Significant correlations and traits of communality were found from comparison of 15 variables from the ELCEP, PHIP, and WLPB-Span, through factor analysis. Recommendation. Additional extension of the ELCEP for ensuring quality of test constructs to permit criterion-referenced and norm-referenced application of the test. Further studies to ensure appropriate development of equivalent English and Spanish forms of the ELCEP, and local norms for the PHIP AND WLPB-Span.

Abstract:
Sports commentary is an essential part of live broadcasted sports as well as eSports and is a task that requires that the caster be verbally proficient and can maintain a high tempo when speaking, especially in more fast-paced sports. This study aims to analyze this promotional language sportscasters use by approaching it from the linguistic phenomenon of metadiscourse. This will be achieved by utilizing a theoretical framework adapted from previous research on eSports commentaries. By comparing a traditional sport, in this case mixed martial arts, with that of the eSport of Super Smash Bros. Melee, the aim is to see what differences can be found between the two sports’ commentaries and their use of metadiscursive promotional language. After comparing these two sets of commentaries, the results show that there are some differences in how promotional language is used to enhance the understanding and excitement of their respective sports. The major differences found are in how the two sets of commentaries use metaphors as well as that the eSport casters show a pattern of using evaluative adjectives in a more varied and colorful way.
Sportkommentatorer är en väsentlig del av live-sänd idrott såväl som eSport och är en uppgift som kräver att kommentatorn är muntligt skicklig och kan hålla ett högt tempo när hen talar, särskilt i sporter med högre tempo. Denna studie syftar till att analysera det promotionsbefrämjande språk som sportkommentatorer använder genom att närma sig det från det lingvistiska fenomenet metadiskurs. Detta kommer att uppnås genom att använda sig av ett teoretiskt ramverk som anpassats från tidigare forskning om eSports kommentarer. Genom att jämföra det med en traditionell sport, i detta fall mixed martial arts, med eSporten Super Smash Bros. Melee, är målet att se vilka skillnader som kan hittas mellan dem två sporternas kommentarer och deras användning av metadiskursivt promotionellt språk. Efter att ha jämfört dem två kommentarerna så visar resultaten att det finns vissa skillnader i hur promotionsbefrämjande språk används för att förstärka förståelsen och spänningen i deras respektive sporter. De största skillnaderna som fanns är i hur de två kommentarerna använder metaforer samt att eSports-kommentatorerna visar ett mönster av att använda evaluerande adjektiv i ett mer varierat och färgrikt sätt.

Abstract:
This study is an analysis of the process of creating subtitles for the National Geographic documentary Fight Science: Mixed Martial Arts. The difficulties encountered during this project have included the translation of subject-specific terminology, the handling of source-text mistakes and the process of deciding how to condense the spoken dialogue when writing the subtitles. By studying these issues, certain conclusion can be drawn about the difficulties encountered when creating subtitles and translating texts with subject-specific terminology. The study is primarily based on the theories of Runo Ingo (2007), Vinay & Darbelnet (1977) and Chesterman & Wagner (2002). To find appropriate translations for subject-specific terminology, it is important to understand which translation device should be used (for example a loan or literal translation) through the examination of parallel texts and it is important that the translator be familiar with this terminology. How to properly handle mistakes in the source material depends greatly on the situation, the text concerned and the translator’s judgment. Decisions about which information can be omitted can be based on the information’s importance to the overall understanding of the show or the implicit nature of the information. The science of translation can be considered vague, but there exist theories and principles to aid translators when making such touch decisions as those encountered during this project.

Abstract:
This is a qualitative study focusing on support of English as an Additional Language provided to students in an international school in Bangkok. The study aims to answer the following questions through literature and responses from interviewees: To what extent does EAL benefit second language learners’ development of language acquisition? and How is the EAL learners’ language proficiency monitored? The study was conducted at the international school The Early Learning Centre in Bangkok, including interviews with five EAL students with Swedish as their L1, and one EAL teacher, and questionnaires sent to three parents. The theoretical starting point describes the aspects that are of concern in this study: language acquisition, second language acquisition, English as an additional language in general and at The Early Learning Centre, and English as an additional language continuum. The data indicates that EAL programs that deliver both mainstream and withdrawal support is the accurate way to connect it to the curriculum. The results showed that EAL support provides students with sufficient help in acquiring academic and social language skills. ELC uses withdrawal support to improve language skills in smaller groups where the focus lies in learning language and transfer knowledge between L1 and L2. The study also indicates that to monitor language proficiency, assessments are important to monitor skills and development.

This exploratory correlational study seeks to answer the question of whether a relationship exists between student average test score gains on state exams and teachers’ rating of values on the Schwartz Values Survey. Eighty-seven randomly selected Kansas teachers of math and/or reading, grades four through eight, participated. Student test score gains were paired with teachers and averaged. The results of these backward stepwise entries of multiple regressions using SPSS software are reported. Significant relationships with large effect sizes are reported for teacher values and student test score gains in reading and math. Models of teacher values are found that account for thirty-two percent of the average student test score gains in reading and for forty-three percent of the average student test score gains in mathematics. The significant model of values with the greatest adjusted relationship with reading test score gains is described as the Relational Teacher Value Type. The valuing of True Friendship (close supportive friends) and the valuing of Sense of Belonging (feeling that others care about me) proved to be the most powerful indicators of student reading score gains within this type. The significant model of values with the greatest adjusted relationship with mathematics test score gains is described as the Well-Being Teacher Value Type. The valuing of Healthy (not being sick physically or mentally), the valuing of Reciprocation of Favors (avoidance of indebtedness), and Self Respect (belief in one’s own worth) proved to be the most powerful indicators of student mathematics test score gains within this type. The significant value items within each of the above types’ models are discussed regarding possible reasons for their relationships to student test score gains. A value that is found significant for both reading and mathematics teachers in accounting for student test score gains is Moderate (avoiding extremes of feeling and action). Of the teachers in the study that taught mathematics and reading, their students’ mathematics score gains did not correlate in a statistically significant way with their students’ reading score gains, suggesting that a teacher’s ability to teach math has little to do with a teacher’s ability to teach reading.

Abstract:
AbstractMany attempts have been made to introduce robotics into curricular activities, although these have largely been occasional and discontinuous experiences. These experiments are often organized to teach specific know-how, enormously devaluating the technology’s potential. Furthermore, they might be placed in the hands of experts who are not on the school’s staff, and who conduct the entire project mostly without the involvement of teachers. Our research project is directed at lower secondary schools. Our aim is to try to move past the dictates of “teaching robotics” towards the less controversial vision of “teaching with robotics”. Following the lead of Datteri and Zecca (Metodi e tecnologie per l’uso educativo e didattico dei robot. Mondo digitale 75, editorial (2018)) we propose robots as a mediation instrument for normal learning and for transversal competencies in the school setting. The proposed research is a three-year program within the host school’s normal curricular subjects and timetable, in which our approach facilitates the learning process. The topics extend beyond coding, robotics, and STEAM in general, and aim to improve experiences in liberal arts subjects such as language, literature, and geohistory.

Full text
Abstract:
The notion of atmosphere adds a new dimension to metaphors and symbols attempting to describe both musical and spiritual experience. Speaking of atmosphere, the discourse on music or spirituality itself moves from the purely descriptive sphere into the realm of experience, shedding new light on its specificity and effects. Consequently, one can speak of a reinterpretation of such key concepts for spirituality and theology as the body, incarnation, transformation (conversion). Music can help to understand and express them better. In this chapter, the above theses will be presented according to the following scheme: 1) A general outline of the philosophical and aesthetic significance of the concept of 'atmosphere'; 2) A presentation of the potential 'dimensions of atmosphere' in music (tonality, the event of performance, the context of listening to the music, the role of the title and the biography of the composer or performer); 3) A presentation of the potential 'dimensions' of spirituality (prayer and its context, celebration, the eloquence and expression of texts, encounter); 4) A demonstration of the common 'atmospheric' elements of music and spirituality: the experience of perception, moving, touching, the presence of the Other, encounter. One cannot deny that the concept of atmosphere functions best in the spirituality of religions based on personal contact with God. If so, it is not merely descriptive but can have a practical dimension, stimulating both the musical or spiritual experience as well as facilitating its interpretation by opening it up, through synesthesia, to the sensations and language of other arts.

Abstract:
AbstractMachine Translation (MT) is one of the oldest language technologies having been researched for more than 70 years. However, it is only during the last decade that it has been widely accepted by the general public, to the point where in many cases it has become an indispensable tool for the global community, supporting communication between nations and lowering language barriers. Still, there remain major gaps in the technology that need addressing before it can be successfully a0146pplied in under-resourced settings, can understand context and use world knowledge. This chapter provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art in the field of MT, offers technical and scientific forecasting for 2030, and provides recommendations for the advancement of MT as a critical technology if the goal of digital language equality in Europe is to be achieved.

Abstract:
The present chapter provides a state-of-the-art review of research into cross-language influences in the processing of multi-word expressions (MWEs) in a second language (L2). Two lines of research are considered: first, how L2 speakers process congruent MWEs versus L2-only MWEs; second, how L2 speakers process L1-only MWEs translated into the L2 compared with control phrases. Studies have shown that congruent MWEs generally have a processing advantage over L2-only MWEs in L2 speakers. In contrast, evidence is mixed with regard to whether or not translated L1-only MWEs exhibit a processing advantage over matched controls in L2 speakers, with facilitation so far observed for idioms, but not for other types of MWEs. We consider possible reasons for these mixed findings.

Abstract:
AbstractProbabilistic programming languages (PPLs) allow users to encode arbitrary inference problems, and PPL implementations provide general-purpose automatic inference for these problems. However, constructing inference implementations that are efficient enough is challenging for many real-world problems. Often, this is due to PPLs not fully exploiting available parallelization and optimization opportunities. For example, handling probabilistic checkpoints in PPLs through continuation-passing style transformations or non-preemptive multitasking—as is done in many popular PPLs—often disallows compilation to low-level languages required for high-performance platforms such as GPUs. To solve the checkpoint problem, we introduce the concept of PPL control-flow graphs (PCFGs)—a simple and efficient approach to checkpoints in low-level languages. We use this approach to implement RootPPL: a low-level PPL built on CUDA and C++ with OpenMP, providing highly efficient and massively parallel SMC inference. We also introduce a general method of compiling universal high-level PPLs to PCFGs and illustrate its application when compiling Miking CorePPL—a high-level universal PPL—to RootPPL. The approach is the first to compile a universal PPL to GPUs with SMC inference. We evaluate RootPPL and the CorePPL compiler through a set of real-world experiments in the domains of phylogenetics and epidemiology, demonstrating up to 6$$\times $$ × speedups over state-of-the-art PPLs implementing SMC inference.

Abstract:
AbstractThe termination behavior of probabilistic programs depends on the outcomes of random assignments. Almost sure termination (AST) is concerned with the question whether a program terminates with probability one on all possible inputs. Positive almost sure termination (PAST) focuses on termination in a finite expected number of steps. This paper presents a fully automated approach to the termination analysis of probabilistic while-programs whose guards and expressions are polynomial expressions. As proving (positive) AST is undecidable in general, existing proof rules typically provide sufficient conditions. These conditions mostly involve constraints on supermartingales. We consider four proof rules from the literature and extend these with generalizations of existing proof rules for (P)AST. We automate the resulting set of proof rules by effectively computing asymptotic bounds on polynomials over the program variables. These bounds are used to decide the sufficient conditions – including the constraints on supermartingales – of a proof rule. Our software tool Amber can thus check AST, PAST, as well as their negations for a large class of polynomial probabilistic programs, while carrying out the termination reasoning fully with polynomial witnesses. Experimental results show the merits of our generalized proof rules and demonstrate that Amber can handle probabilistic programs that are out of reach for other state-of-the-art tools.

Abstract:
AbstractMechanisation of programming language research is of growing interest, and the act of mechanising type systems and their metatheory is generally becoming easier as new techniques are invented. However, state-of-the-art techniques mostly rely on structurality of the type system — that weakening, contraction, and exchange are admissible and variables can be used unrestrictedly once assumed. Linear logic, and many related subsequent systems, provide motivations for breaking some of these assumptions.We present a framework for mechanising the metatheory of certain substructural type systems, in a style resembling mechanised metatheory of structural type systems. The framework covers a wide range of simply typed syntaxes with semiring usage annotations, via a metasyntax of typing rules. The metasyntax for the premises of a typing rule is related to bunched logic, featuring both sharing and separating conjunction, roughly corresponding to the additive and multiplicative features of linear logic. We use the uniformity of syntaxes to derive type system-generic renaming, substitution, and a form of linearity checking.

Abstract:
The Javanese language has, as of late, seen a flux in its revival. The Javanese government sees the revival of Javanese as a very necessary identity marker, as a reflexive stance to transnationalism. Here, various sectors of Javenese society are contributing to the revival of the language, such as the arts, poltics, commerce, and domestic environments. The paper seeks to document Javanese in various sectors, buy observing its use in the above sectors, and elsewhere. The study observes the engineering of this language revival, and from which, the ideologies of Javanese are extrapolated, so as to expose anthropological patterns. The study thus contributes to work on language revitalization, linguistic landscapes, language ideologies and linguistic anthropology in general.

Abstract:
In this article, a current problem related to the quality of the educational process is addressed, which can be optimized by capitalizing ART-pedagogy – modern direction of pedagogical science, which studies the legitimacy, mechanisms, principles, rules of including the means of art in the educational context. ART-pedagogy has the potential to facilitate the formation-development process of fine arts and poetic artistic predispositions/ skills through music, offering conditions for perceiving the world from a new and original perspective. Thus, music education lessons should be carried out in an integrated way with other subjects, such as visual arts and the Romanian language and literature. By implementing ART-pedagogy in the musical educational process, teachers will be able to create optimal conditions at lessons for forming and developing the students’ deep perception of the universe, the need to acquire spiritual values, to develop their skills to understand the finest aspects of art as a whole and, finally, to form-develop their harmonious personality. To achieve these objectives, some of the methods specific to music education, both attested and original, are suggested and proposed in this article. Thanks to the increased potential of ART-pedagogy from the perspective of forming and developing the general artistic culture of students, personal development, increasing school performance, facilitating the act of communication between the teaching staff and the student through art, its utilization in the educational process leads to optimizing its quality.

Abstract:
Teaching languages in pandemic times takes on both pedagogical and technological challenges. This is the moment where teachers and students explore and adapt to a new environment. This is a place (shall we call it a "cyberspace"?) where tradition has to be reconsidered more closely and facilitate significant innovations. The year 2020 will be remembered as a turnaround point in human modern history for many scientific domains. Teaching languages in schools is facing big challenges alongside with other teaching subjects (arts, humanities, natural sciences). Nonetheless, (foreign) language teaching gives teachers even in a restricted teaching environment (confinement restrictions, enforced lockdowns of varying degrees) a certain flexibility in managing the ,,virtual classroom". Students can acquire in times of restrictions languages, as long as they have an electronic device that enables them to get in touch with a teacher. This also implies the fact that teachers are able to facilitate and control communication within the classroom. Moreover, beyond their (traditional) teaching skills they should also be able to develop a basic competence in the software system. Although online teaching has gained more and more attention in the last decades, it was first in 2020 - as pandemic restrictions had been imposed - that teachers were directly confronted with the need of teaching in front of a personal computer for their students. The object of this paper is therefore to examine online language teaching and set a basic framework of the so called virtual classroom. This examination relies on the fact that there is indeed a gap between traditional face-to-face classroom teaching and online teaching (Compton, 2009). Whereas the teacher is supposed to acquire additional teaching skills in order to face online challenges. Furthermore, the virtual classroom must be restructured, in the sense that traditional classroom ceases to exist once the teacher jumps into the cyberspace. Another interesting issue is cyberspace itself. This should be a space where both teacher and student have profiles and behaviours that stand in clear contrast to their traditional counterparts. A significant feature is the fact that online teaching must reshape traditional teacher-centred strategies and develop a group-centred method, whereas the general frontal view teaching should shift into a more personalised approach. Teachers must be fully aware of the importance of these acts by overcoming their fears and engaging in a constructive dialogue with their students.

Abstract:
Higher well-being correlates positively with multiple psychological and social outcomes, including workplace success and better academic outcomes for students. Poetry and meditation, independently, have been demonstrated in prior studies to increase well-being in a variety of contexts, including physical and mental health challenges. To our knowledge, this is the only published cross-cultural study that merged contemplative practices and poetry within the well-being paradigm, particularly among general, non-clinical adolescent populations. The purpose of this exploratory study was to examine the use of meditation and mantric poetry in a cross-cultural, educational context. The materials included <em>The Jewels of Happiness:</em><em> </em><em>Inspiration and Wisdom to Guide your Life-Journey</em> paperback and audiobook—a collection of poetry and prose to enhance positive emotions. A content analysis was conducted with post-secondary student essays and secondary students’ comments, subsequent to an experience of meditation and mantric poetry in their respective academic settings. Post-secondary students (n = 34) were enrolled in an English as a Second Language (ESL) course in Japan, and secondary students (n = 30) were enrolled in an English Language Arts (ELA) class in the United States. The most commonly occurring themes that emerged across the two cohorts were <em>inner peace, happiness, life-changing experience, </em>and<em> overcoming a challenge.</em>

Abstract:
Synthetic data construction of Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) for non-English languages relies heavily on human-designed and language-specific rules, which produce limited error-corrected patterns. In this paper, we propose a generic and language-independent strategy for multilingual GEC, which can train a GEC system effectively for a new non-English language with only two easy-to-access resources: 1) a pre-trained cross-lingual language model (PXLM) and 2) parallel translation data between English and the language. Our approach creates diverse parallel GEC data without any language-specific operations by taking the non-autoregressive translation generated by PXLM and the gold translation as error-corrected sentence pairs. Then, we reuse PXLM to initialize the GEC model and pre-train it with the synthetic data generated by itself, which yields further improvement. We evaluate our approach on three public benchmarks of GEC in different languages. It achieves the state-of-the-art results on the NLPCC 2018 Task 2 dataset (Chinese) and obtains competitive performance on Falko-Merlin (German) and RULEC-GEC (Russian). Further analysis demonstrates that our data construction method is complementary to rule-based approaches.

Abstract:
We propose a framework for training language-invariant cross-modal retrieval models. We introduce four novel text encoding approaches, as well as a character-based word-embedding approach, allowing the model to project similar words across languages into the same word-embedding space. In addition, by performing cross-modal retrieval at the character level, the storage requirements for a text encoder decrease substantially, allowing for lighter and more scalable retrieval architectures. The proposed language-invariant textual encoder based on characters is virtually unaffected in terms of storage requirements when novel languages are added to the system. Contributions include new methods for building character-level-based word-embeddings, an improved loss function, and a novel cross-language alignment module that not only makes the architecture language-invariant, but also presents better predictive performance. Moreover, we introduce a module called \adapt, which is responsible for providing query-aware visual representations that generate large improvements in terms of recall for four widely-used large-scale image-text datasets. We show that our models outperform the current state-of-the-art all scenarios. This thesis can serve as a new path on retrieval research, now allowing for the effective use of captions in multiple-language scenarios.

Abstract:
Education, as the most important form of human capital investment, has many influences on individual development. In addition to economic benefits, educational investment can improve the general trust of individuals and produce non-economic benefits. In the study of the causal effect of education on general trust, the estimation method of OLS has some problems such as endogeneity. In order to avoid the outcome bias caused by endogenous problems, this paper uses the implementation of compulsory education law as the instrumental variable, and uses the two-stage least squares estimation method to explore the impact of education on individuals' general trust.

Abstract:
Is there an effective Spanish Sentiment Analysis algorithm? The aim of this paper is to answer this question. The task is challenging because there are several dialects for the Spanish Language. Thus, identically written words could have several meanings and polarities regarding Spanish speaking countries. To tackle this multidialect issue we rely on a transfer learning approach. To do so, we train a BERT language model to “transfer” general features of the Spanish language. Then, we fine-tune the language model to specific dialects. BERT is also used to generate contextual data augmentation aimed to prevent overfitting. Finally, we build the polarity classifier and propose a fine-tuning step using groups of layers. Our design choices allow us to achieve state-of-the-art results regarding multidialect benchmark datasets.

Abstract:
This paper describes and discusses a piece of inclusive and participatory fieldwork carried out at two sites in Bangladesh in close collaboration with local and international NGOs working on disability as part of the UK government (FCDO) funded Disability Inclusive Development (DID) programme. Our research fieldwork engaged two small groups of learners with specific identities (deafblind or young women) in workshops aiming to gather examples of and understand their experiences as young people with disabilities, both in general terms and about a work-focussed programme. Creative, visual and arts based multi-modal methods were used to encourage maximum participation, including from those with little or no spoken language or literacy. Some were accompanied by carers or supporters who also shared their perspectives. Local staff teams from collaborating INGOs and Organisations of People with Disabilities (OPDs) supported, participated in and learnt from the process. Detail about the workshop activities and data from the participants are presented and discussed. Recommendations from the participants and reflections on the methodological aspects are provided. We concluded that using inclusive, participatory and creative research methods generates rich insights into people’s experiences, which can increase understandings about marginalised people’s lives and inform future interventions to promote their inclusion.

Abstract:
The content coverage of the Integrated Curriculum (IC) for Nepali Language Arts and Reading is broad, but some topics, including foundational reading and writing skills, are emphasised more than others. The IC generally emphasises middle levels of cognitive demand. IC content is highly aligned across Grades 1-3. Grade 1 teachers cover IC topics more broadly, and typically at lower cognitive demand levels, than the curriculum prescribes. The Classroom-Based Early Grade Reading Assessment (CB-EGRA) focuses on a narrower set of skills than either the curriculum or instruction, and typically at higher cognitive demand levels. Student performance on the CB-EGRA is low, suggesting the need for greater support on specific topics and at more basic skill levels so students have a stronger foundation for future progress.

Abstract:
Co-teaching is defined as a collaborative method of instruction (Murawski & Hughes, 2009), which implies co-teaching partnerships where educators make and effort in terms of joint instructional decisions and share responsibility as well as accountability for student learning (Shumway et all., 2011). This working paper is intended to illustrate the state-of-the-art concerning the implementation of co-teaching in EFL settings in Colombia over the last two decades. This manuscript is based on documentary research, in which primary source data were collected from data bases, university repositories, journals, and official reports. As an outcome, we expect to unveil co-teaching strategies, co-teachers' roles as well as collaborative teaching benefits in EFL in general, and foreign language student-teachers’ education, in particular.
