Abstract:
This qualitative case study of one German suburban high school classroom in the Midwestern United States examines how learners of German negotiate their linguistic legitimacy, which is defined as discursively constructed acceptance or validation for their language use. Specifically, it investigates how the students negotiated legitimacy for using their target language German in their classroom. Based on the premise that linguistic legitimacy is crucial for the maintenance and development of speakers’ languages, data was collected and analyzed from classroom recordings, semi-structured interviews, and participant observations. Findings revealed that, while English dominated the lessons as the default legitimate language among the students, using German was accepted and valued under certain circumstances. Such instances of linguistic legitimacy included the use of German for entertainment or in role plays, a pattern which points to the students’ desire to mitigate investment and display “uninvestment” in learning or using German. Implications for foreign language (FL) pedagogy and teacher education are discussed.

AbstractThis article explores the cultural bases of political legitimacy in sub-Saharan Africa. It proceeds by concentrating on the language, imagery, and metaphors that Africans use to convey perceptions about politics and political life. After examining the nature of power and reflecting on the importance of political language, it presents four premises of a model called the moral matrix of legitimate governance, noting their relation to political legitimacy. In conclusion it relates the analysis of power and legitimacy to the political turmoil current throughout much of Africa, focusing specifically on the question of ‘democratisation’.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay explores the forms of political legitimacy claimed by Muslim sultans and received by their Muslim and non-Muslim subjects in sultanate and early Mughal Kashmir. The establishment of the Shahmirid sultanate in 1339 marked the beginning of a new multilingual situation where Sanskrit and Persian were both used as official languages. In such a situation, presentation of the Shahmirids’ political legitimacy took different forms depending on the language in which it was made. Shahmirid sultans declared their Indic legitimacy in Sanskrit and Islamic legitimacy in Persian. A polyglot chose the Indic legitimacy to praise the contemporary sultan in his Sanskrit writing with full knowledge of the Islamic legitimacy claimed by the same sultan. In such a situation, a ruler’s action that was deeply linked with his claim of legitimacy, e.g., Akbar’s sun-veneration could be interpreted differently by the observers depending on the language used to express their interpretations.

Abstract:
This paper discusses current language policy debates on national and immigrated lang ages in Switzerland. Problems with the principle of territoriality, which represents a locally monolingual regime in an officially quadrilingual country, and other issues related to the legal status of languages are discussed. The proportional representation of the national minorities and the use of their languages in particular contexts such as the federal administration or the army is discussed, as well as the current debate on which foreign languages should be given priority in compulsory primary education. Drawing on language ideology research, the contribution shows how specific aspects of linguistic diversity are focused and addressed in particular contexts (e.g. national languages, standard languages), whereas others are backgrounded, denied legitimacy or simply erased (e.g. immigrated languages, dialects). The discussion addresses also the demographic weight of the languages and varieties in Switzerland as well as in the world and uses census data to illustrate the stability and changes regarding the official and immigrated languages across time.

Abstract:
Prior research has documented that nonstandard ways of speaking can be subject to discrimination, and that nonstandard speakers are aware of the biases toward their accents. However, few studies have investigated the consequences of this for the stigmatized speaker. The objectives of this study are to explore how perceived legitimacy of discrimination moderates the relationship between perceived accent discrimination and the following two variables: (a) situated francophone identity and (b) French language confidence. Participants were nonnative ( n = 113) and native ( n = 225) speakers of French who completed questionnaires assessing the above constructs. Moderated regression analyses revealed that language discrimination is significantly and negatively related to language confidence. For native speakers from a high vitality region, legitimacy was found to moderate the relation between language discrimination and identity. When discrimination was perceived to be less legitimate, the relation between perceived discrimination and situated identity was positive.

Abstract:
Eva Erman and Niklas Möller have recently criticised a range of political theorists for committing a pragmatistic fallacy, illicitly drawing normative conclusions from politically neutral ideas about language. This paper examines their critique with respect to one of their primary targets: the pragmatist approach to political legitimacy that I proposed in earlier work, which draws on Robert Brandom’s theory of language. I argue that the charge relies on a misrepresentation of the role of pragmatist ideas about language in my analysis of legitimacy. Pragmatism’s significance for thinking about political legitimacy does not lie in the normative conclusions it justifies but in the way it reorients our thinking towards political practice. This raises the deeper question of what we are to expect from a theory of legitimacy. I argue that Erman and Möller presuppose a widely held but unduly restrictive conception of what a normative theory of legitimacy consists in and that pragmatism can broaden the scope of enquiry: a theory of legitimacy should not focus narrowly on the content and justification of criteria, but more fundamentally aim to explicate the forms of political activity in which such criteria are at stake.

Abstract:
This study uses conversation data and ethnographic interviews to examine the role of meta-talk in speaker legitimacy for L2 Japanese speakers. Autoethnographic analysis of conversation data demonstrates how an L2 speaker is co-constructed (jointly positioned) as a (non)legitimate speaker of Japanese Dialect. The researcher, an L2 Japanese speaker, recorded Japanese conversations with L1 interlocutors, namely, her L1 Japanese spouse and in-laws. Two contrasting cases of L2 Japanese Dialect use are examined. In the first case, L1 interlocutors respond to the L2 speaker’s dialect with meta-talk about “our language,” co-constructing the L2 speaker as a non-legitimate dialect user. In the second case, the L2 speaker’s dialect use is affirmed when the L1 interlocutor uses similar dialect; no meta-talk occurs. The conversation data is supplemented with ethnographic interview data which underscores the prevalence of meta-talk. Meta-talk reveals speakers’ beliefs about legitimate speakerhood in which “our language” does not include L2 speakers. Conversely, the absence of meta-talk affirms the L2 speaker’s dialect use and depicts dialect as a shared form of “our language.” This study contributes to understanding linguistic ideologies, demonstrates how language ownership and speaker legitimacy manifest in Japanese interactions, and adds to research examining Japanese Dialect use by L2 speakers.

Abstract:
This dissertation explores the ambiguities of professionalization for writing centers and presents an alternative way to approach what I believe is an inevitable process. Toward that end, my project is to examine how the discourse surrounding the professionalization of writing centers constructs scholars, tutors, teachers, and writing. In particular, the focus of my project is to compare how tutors' self-definitions of professionalism reflect/deflect how professionalism is defined in the scholarly literature and in arenas outside of academia. The conclusions I draw are based on my research of two local writing centers in two southwest universities as well as a survey of the intertwined histories of literature, composition studies, and writing centers, and my experience co-directing a writing center for two years. My final argument is that writing center workers ought to look outside of academia for organizational models more closely aligned to political activism such the civil rights movement and women's movement, and to capitalize on the interdisciplinary nature of writing center work to create a "participatory democracy," in which participants theorize from their experience and value the process over gaining expertise.

Singh, Bandana. "“Your unthought of Harry”: Political Legitimacy and the Economy of Honor in Shakespeare's Henriad." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2018. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/1140.

Full text
Abstract:
Shakespeare’s Henriad delves into questions of divine authority, political process, and the role of class in society. Most importantly, however, the text tracks the shifts in leadership and kingly identity. Richard II paints the portrait of a king infatuated with his own divinity. Richard’s journey from anointed king to deposed mortal captures the dissolution of his fantasy of invincibility. Inciting Richard’s demise, Henry IV effectively disturbs the passive obedience which the king’s subjects maintain; in doing so, the kingship begins to shift away from divine authority, moving into a vacuum of rebellion and civil conflict. Meanwhile, the previously profligate Prince Hal turns towards his duties; in proving himself to his father, he begins to accumulate honor, redeeming himself as a capable heir. Hal’s ascension as Henry V and his subsequent success as a king provides a stark contrast to the discontent during Richard’s reign. As the presence of divinity recedes, the theme of honor appears more frequently throughout the Henriad. Prince Hal views honor as an external commodity which can be accumulated by an individual. Honor, as presented by Henry V, seemingly converts an intrinsic trait or virtue into a commodity with economic value, allowing for the establishment of his own political legitimacy. Using the plays in the Henriad as my primary texts, I intend to examine this political and ideological transition by connecting Richard's divine right to Hal's construction of an economy of honor.

Full text
Abstract:
Though the field of technical and professional communication has long been saturated with the narratives of Euro-Western males, technical and professional communication as a field has a responsibility to expand the lens of study to include the experiences of global and nontraditional practitioners. This study examines the experiences of Indian women working as practitioners, building power and legitimacy in a globalized economy. Drawing from interviews with 49 practitioners as well as an analysis of historical documents, this study examines the methods that Indian practitioners have used to build power and legitimacy by founding professional organizations, leveraging their educational opportunities, and using tactical strategies in their workplaces. The data suggests that Indian women have done strong, innovative work in building their own legitimacy in the field. However, work remains to remove barriers that disproportionately bar women from access to professionalizing structures.

Full text
Abstract:
The research highlights Salvadoran migrants’ identities within the United States since their departure from El Salvador during its Civil War. The purpose of this research is to provide a historical context of the Civil War and an analysis of the transitions of documentation that occur upon arriving to the United States. In doing so, I demonstrate how physical documentation builds an influential and detrimental power over the Salvadoran migrants’ participation within the community. It is important to mention the Civil War because of two reasons: one, for its introduction to various stages of enduring violence, and two, for its impact on migration laws towards Salvadoran refugees. This research not only portrays the various shifts of aggression, but it also distinguishes documentation as a juxtaposition between legality and classism. More importantly, the findings reveal a correlation between these dynamics of violent documentation and the Salvadorans’ distorted, misguided, and inconclusive perceptions that they hold about the concepts of belonging and identity.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is an exploration of the extent to which Paul�s terminology of Inheritance [(...)] in Romans, and its associated imagery, logic and arguments, functioned to evoke socio-political expectations that were alternative to those which prevailed in contemporary Roman imperial discourse. There are two parts to this study. The first is to take seriously the context of Empire and the claims being made by the Roman Empire in the first century. In particular, what were some of the messages conveyed by the Roman Empire with regard to the structure and purpose, the hopes and expectations, of first-century society? The Christians in Rome were daily exposed to the images and message of Caesar and his successors and there is therefore a need to consider how Paul�s language of Inheritance would have sounded within this environment. Second, this study gives attention to the content of Paul�s use of the word "inheritance" as it occurs in Romans. In order to address this question, three interrelated ideas are explored. First, for Paul, what does the inheritance consist of? The traditional understanding is that the concept is an entirely spiritualised or transcendent reality. This study proposes a more this-worldly, geographical nature to the word. Second, there is the closely related question of the political nature of inheritance. If it is the case that the language of inheritance has to do with the renewal of the land, then who inherits this land? These two questions raise a third issue-how will the inheritance transpire? Paul�s inheritance language contributes to notions of lordship, authority and universal sovereignty for the people of God. Conceivably, the path to this dominion could mirror the hegemonic intentions of imperial Rome which envisages the triumph of one group of people (the strong) over another (the weak). Is this the case with Paul�s inheritance language, or does it somehow undermine all claims to power and control? There are five undisputed uses of [...] and its cognates in Romans-Rom 4:13, 14; Rom 8:17 (three times) and there is one textual variant in Rom 11:1 where the word [...] is used in place of [...]. This study finds that, to varying degrees in each of these texts, the inheritance concept is not only a direct confrontation to other claims to rule, it is also simultaneously a reversal of all other paths to lordship and rule. This study then considers the use of the concept in the two other undisputed Pauline letters where it occurs (Galatians and 1 Corinthians) and also in the disputed letter to the Colossians. The overriding impression is that there is nothing in Galatians, 1 Corinthians or Colossians which significantly challenges the this-worldly, political nature of the language of inheritance in Romans. In these epistles and in Romans Paul employs the language and politics of inheritance in order to subvert the message of Empire.

O'Leary, E. N. "The impact of multilingualism on the democratic legitimacy of the European Union : is creating a solidly defined European Demos the answer to the EU's language problem?" Thesis, Liverpool John Moores University, 2016. http://researchonline.ljmu.ac.uk/4186/.

Full text
Abstract:
Examining the case law of the ECJ reveals that the multilingual nature of the EU presents numerous problems, such as the relative rather than absolute equality of languages, and translation errors that lead to non-uniform law due to the impossibility of perfect translation. This directly limits the application of the legal certainty aspect of the Rule of Law, thus putting into question the EU’s democratic viability. Democracy is dependent on communication opportunity, something which the Union is lacking due to its multilingual nature. To solve these legitimacy problems created by the EU’s multilingual nature, it is necessary to understand the force of language as a concept in its own right. Western linguistic theory tells us that each language encodes a particular experience of the world and that its use might predispose its speakers to see the world according to the experience encoded in it. Not only this, but that language holds such power due to the significant role of a common language collective identity formation. In order to solve, or at least mitigate the democratic legitimacy issues which arise due to the EU’s multilingual nature, we must forge a European identity which is not dependant on the feature of a common language. Accepted beliefs and archetypes of identity are deconstructed and then reconstructed in a way which uses alternate features which allow for democratic participation without the precondition of a common language. Rather than trying to solve the language problem with a language solution (as has been done before), this thus provides new and original theoretical solutions to a practical language problem by suggesting that it can be overcome if we redefine our accepted notions of identity in the post-national sense and look at the problem through a wider lens.

Abstract:
Tese de Doutoramento em Ciência Política<br>Quando, quase 20 anos após a sua assinatura, o Estado Português decide colocar em vigor o Acordo Ortográfico de 1990 (AO90), cria-se um cisma entre governantes e governados. A tentativa de alterar a ortografia por decreto encontrou fortíssima oposição da sociedade civil, que várias vezes de mobilizou para expressar o seu desacordo em relação à medida junto do Poder político. O Estado português, contudo, escolheu ignorar essa oposição. Desse cisma surgem as questões essenciais desta tese, que cuidamos de relevo para a Ciência Política: estará um Estado democrático legitimado a interferir em matérias de Língua? E, mesmo se estiver, não haverão, ainda assim, limites à sua actuação nessa área? Como podemos explicar a reacção negativa da sociedade civil? Poderemos estabelecer um nexo causal entre uma violação de legitimidade ou de limites de acção do Estado e essa reacção popular? Estas são as questões a que, a partir de uma perspectiva institucionalista- normativista, vamos responder, recorrendo ao método dedutivo aplicado sobre um estudo de caso. Este, feito sobre a reacção da sociedade civil à imposição do AO90, procurará confirmar a nossa tese que propõe que o Estado não está legitimado a interferir na matéria, gerando tal interferência, invariavelmente, uma reacção negativa por parte da sociedade civil.<br>When, almost 20 years after being signed, the Portuguese government decided to adopt the Orthographic Agreement of 1990 (AO90), a schism was created between those who rule and those who are ruled. The attempt at changing spelling by decree was met with profound opposition from civil society, who mobilised to express to its political representatives, its profound disagreement with the policy. The Portuguese government, however, chose to ignore such opposition. From that schism were born the fundamental questions of this thesis, which we deem relevant to Political Science: is a democratic State legitimised to intervene in matters of Language? And, even if it is, aren’t there still limits to its actions in this field? How can we explain the negative reaction from civil society? Can’t we establish a causal nexus between a violation of legitimacy or action limits, and that public reaction? These are the questions which, from a normative-institutionalist perspective we’ll answer, applying the deductive method upon a case study. That case study, which analyses the reaction of civil society to the imposition of the AO90, will seek to confirm out thesis which proposes that the State is not legitimised to interfere in the matter, generating such interference, invariably, a negative reaction from civil society.<br>N/A

Abstract:
In this article, I examine Russophone anti-war poetry published since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine and identify a tendency in this material to question the very foundations of cultural (literary) resistance. More specifically, the ability, possibility, and moral conditions of language (and script) to express war resistance are addressed. Russophone writers, whether within the Russian Federation or in exile, face profound dilemmas tied to the moral implications of expressing resistance in a language steeped in war, violence, and terror. I explore how these challenges are addressed in a two- pronged analysis. First, I look at some of the main lines of argumentation linked to these issues when discussed by writers and critics on a meta-level (in prefaces, commentaries, launch events, etc.). I then proceed to examine a couple of strategies that manifest themselves in a selection of poems. These strategies range from subtle linguistic innovations to more radical practices, with extreme examples revealing a language teetering on the edge of collapse. I offer a brief prehistory of linguistic resistance in Russian/Soviet culture before concluding by summarizing the chief functions of Russophone anti-war poetry, as conceived by the writers and critics.

Abstract:
As the core way of Roland Barthes's late textual practice, "amateur" always rejects the ideological power of discourse construction, especially the power collapse within the language system, and tries to break the long-standing "intransitive" dilemma of writing through a non-utilitarian textual game. However, it also shifts the responsibility of narrative to social structures and releases a sense of lost historical disillusionment. Based on the textual manifestation of the concept of "amateur", including its position, goals and other specific forms of practice, and combined with the relevant research on modern symbolic media, this paper will explore Barthes's legitimacy argument against the writing subject, as well as the intimate connection between the text and the author in the practice of "amateur". In this way, we explore Barthes' argument for the legitimacy of the writing subject and the intimate connection between text and subject in "amateur" practice.

Abstract:
Media sources, primarily of the political variation, have a hastening grip on narratives that can easily be constructed using biased views and false information. Unfortunately, many people in modern society are unable to differentiate these false narratives from real events. Utilizing natural language processing, sentiment analysis, and various other computer science techniques, models can be generated to help users immediately detect bias and falsehoods in political media. The models created in this experiment were able to detect up to 70% accuracy on political bias and 73% accuracy on falsehoods by utilizing datasets from a variety of collections of both political media and other mediums of information. Overall, the models were successful as the standard for most natural language processing models achieved only about 75% accuracy.

Abstract:
Using the example of the nominative field “stealing”, the article presents one of the most productive ways of euphemization which is euphemistic metaphorization. The paper presents Russian, English, and German euphemistic lexemes, denoting stealing as a kind of criminal behavior, designed with the help of conceptual metaphors. The study shows that in the Russian language stealing is euphemized through the metaphorical concepts of GAME, PROFESSION, ORDER RESTORE; in English - ACTION FORCE, WATER; in German - ACTION FORCE, SHOPPING, ACTION, and some zoomorphic metaphors. The main ideas in focus, which help to express stealing euphemistically, are the ideas of harmlessness, legitimacy, and necessity.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The article evinces the importance of blended learning in the field of foreign languages in higher education, defining a series of Robinsonian skills and techniques which lie at the basis of professional language learning. What the author calls Robinsonian skills, lay the groundwork for an individual?s desire and conscientious efforts to learn and make progress in terms of language acquisition and brush-up, once motivation has been aroused and enhanced at an early age. The present paper finds its legitimacy in the idea that in the field of foreign languages, quality and efficiency can be guaranteed by traditional course practice complemented with e-learning. The argument is that language is a living entity, evolves in real-life contexts of communication in line with the progress of humankind, and can be properly acquired through traditional teaching and conversation practice. Language teaching does not only involve transmitting a series of rules and principles, but practicing them in various contexts of communication so that the learner could consciously think in the new foreign language system. Developing language awareness presupposes one?s contact with real life language patterns and experiences which cannot be entirely provided by online environments. Based on the assumption that motivation is first and foremost achieved in a face to-face teacher-student encounter starting from an early age, as far as foreign languages are concerned, the article argues for a necessary blended learning approach of foreign languages for long-life use under any contextual circumstances provided by the labour market. The paper enlarges upon the prerequisites of logical learning in the field of foreign languages, on translation practice as a type of effective learning experience, on composition practice in a foreign language. Successful e-learning depends on motivation to learn and to be part of a different culture, which must be experienced in classroom courses and in simulated real-life contexts for fluency and accuracy, as well as in virtual environments for permanent brush-up. E-learning constitutes an incentive and a challenge for learners of foreign languages. Computers enhance the grain of motivation to learn. Language teachers appeal to e-learning tools as optional opportunities for quality assurance in the present day Digital Age. Using e-platforms and software at appropriate moments for effectiveness and quality assurance should be considered on a par with the instructor?s pedagogical abilities. The role of the teacher / tutor will be evinced as paramount in the student?s evolution in a different culture represented by a foreign language.

Abstract:
The article discusses the main stages in the development of the language situation in the Brussels — Capital Region in the context of historical and socio-cultural phenomena. The purpose of the study is to illustrate the influence of the Dutch language on the Belgian varieties of French. The tasks to be solved are the substantiation of the legitimacy of the division of the Belgian variants of the French language into Brussels and Walloon variants, as well as the clarification of the issue of recognizing the Marolian as a mixed Franco-Dutch language. As a result of the study, it was revealed that the division of the Belgian version of the French language into Brussels and Walloon is, to a greater extent, of a historical nature and is currently difficult. Modern Dutch, along with English and Arabic, influences Belgian French throughout the country, however, given Brussels’ metropolitan status, as well as being surrounded by Flemish territory, it can be assumed that this influence is especially noticeable in the Brussels-Capital Region. Elements of the Marolian language are used mainly as original linguocultural inclusions in the Dutch and French languages of the capital. The result of this study of the features of the french spoken in Brussels is the conclusion that this variant retains features that are very different from Walloon French. On the one hand, the transition to a common French norm blurs the lines between these two options, on the other hand, the Flemish prehistory of the Brussels-Capital Region introduces many Dutch elements into the French language of this enclave. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time it takes into account the influence of the Marolian language on the formation of the Brussels version of French, and also reveals the specifics of the functioning of this version in the conditions of multilingualism, characteristic of modern Brussels.

Abstract:
The Constitution of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (KSHS) of 1921 had for its goal to constitutionalize the organization of the new state, created after the end of the First World War: its organization of government, human and minority rights and freedoms, etc. and also to establish a new nation – the so called "nation with three names" or "three-tribe nation", i.e. – Yugoslavs, as the bearer of the identity of the new state. KSHS was to reconcile not only the nations with different history, mentality and language, but also nations who fought each other fiercely just until a few years back before the adoption of the Vidovdan Constitution. The constitutionalization of a unitary state in which the official language is "Serbo-Croatian-Slovenian" (which as such simply does not exist), ignored clear signals that the essential legitimacy for such state does not exist in a significant part of the country. The analysis of the political activities of the parties, their programs and the election results in the western territories of what was soon to become KSHS (especially in Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia – back then within the Austro-Hungary) shows a distinct anti-Serbian and especially anti-Yugoslav narrative since the middle of the 19th century and the political actions of Ante Starčević, Eugen Kvaternik, later Ivo Pilar and others. It is also clear that such chauvinist, extreme political standpoints, present to a far greater extent to be simply ignored, would turn out to be too much of a burden for the new state and nation, as well as for the Vidovdan Constitution itself, indirectly leading to its infamous end, declaration of dictatorship, assassination of King Alexander Karađorđević and finally the disintegration of the state and horrendous atrocities and genocide against Serbs in the Independent state of Croatia (NDH). In a certain way, the Vidovdan Constitution, due to the shortcomings in its legitimacy, traced the road to hell – paved with good intentions.

Abstract:
Although there is an increase in the number of studies on Philippine English (PE), there is very little research tackling Filipinos’ awareness of PE. This study was done to help expand the limited research on PE awareness, fill the gaps in a few related studies, and test Filipinos’ cognizance of their English variety. Specifically, this research investigated undergraduate students’ awareness of the meanings, features, and uses of PE and its relationship with their age. This study employed a quantitative approach and used an online survey form to collect data. The form consisted of Likert items on PE which were rated by the respondents according to their awareness of each statement. After surveying 216 respondents, it was found that the undergraduate students were slightly aware of the existence of a local English variety, i.e. PE. However, the data show that the respondents were moderately conscious of the other meanings, features, and uses of PE. This suggests that the students were fairly aware of PE but have slight cognizance of its legitimacy as an English variety. A similar finding can be observed in the students’ consciousness of PE features, where they showed moderate awareness of PE having its own accent, phonology, vocabulary, and grammar, but low average consciousness on the acceptability of PE lexicon and grammar. These findings reveal the respondents’ lack of recognition of PE validity, a common issue in non-native English varieties. Spearman rank correlation was used to determine the relationship between the students’ age and their level of PE awareness. With a rho of -0.07, this study claims no significant correlation between the two variables and concludes that age is not a factor influencing PE awareness. Overall, this study reveals the fair awareness of Filipino undergraduate students towards PE and their low awareness of its legitimacy. Also, as shown in the results, the cognizance of a local English variety cannot be assumed among its speakers. Thus, language awareness should be considered as a factor in World Englishes studies.

Abstract:
What does a score on a digital assessment mean? At its core, a score is a measurement of how a student matches up to a predefined construct. For example, a reading assessment may measure the construct of a student’s reading fluency, comprehension, or both. This research seeks to challenge the legitimacy of digital assessment from the lens of Accessibility, User Experience (UX), Inclusive Design, and Marginalized Populations by focusing on the needs of the deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) middle school-aged student in the United States.DHH learners are among the least understood groups. Neither the US Census nor public schools recognize American Sign Language (ASL) as a non-English language used at home. For the sake of discussion, this research references a study by Goman from 2016 which estimates that 14.3% of all Americans aged 12 and older have some form of hearing loss, and a study from the U.S. National Center of Educational Statistics which estimated students with hearing impairment between ages 3-21 at 1% of all students. These statistics are especially concerning when juxtaposed with how assessments are created. Two of the top educational companies in U.S. use a process called “pretesting” to determine the statistical relevance of the questions used in their assessments. This process involves trialing assessment items with a sample group similar to the population to be assessed. As assessments are increasingly delivered digitally, they overlap with other disciplines like UX Design. In UX, it is well documented that testing with five people finds most problems. If we assume that pretesting uses a similar sample size, it is a reasonable assumption that many items would not be trialed with DHH students, i.e. this marginalized group isn’t populous enough to be accounted for in a statistically relevant pretesting sample.To provide legitimacy to this claim, this research used structured interviews with subject-matter experts (SMEs) in usability, accessibility, child-computer interaction, and DHH education. The responses provided by these SMEs lent credence to the idea that DHH learners were often not included in digital assessment design either due to being sampled out, a lack of accessibility awareness, and/or the absence of inclusive design guidelines for DHH students. For example, one interviewed Director at a prominent deaf institution said, “In terms of my field, there isn’t some tangible set of design principles that apply in [my] specific area. These things are developing as we go.”This is especially concerning when scores for deaf learners have wide implications in terms of public funding for school districts at the macro level, and self-worth issues at the individual level; especially when it is oft-cited that 80% of age-14 DHH students on average place below a grade-4 reading level. For these reasons, the goal of this research is to empower designers, developers, managers, and researchers with a repeatable framework for inspiring cross-disciplinary collaboration to create fair and equitable digital assessment designs. It is about meeting the full spectrum of need for every individual student—starting with the DHH student’s needs.

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:
In this position statement, the authors write in support of Ebonics (also known as African American Vernacular English, Black English, Black Dialect, and African American Language) as a legitimate language. The linguistic and cultural origins of Ebonics is traced, along with its legitimacy by professional organizations and the courts. CABE asserts that the role of schools and teachers is therefore to build on students’ knowledge of Ebonics rather than replace or eradicate Ebonics as they teach standard English. This position statement has implications for teacher training.

Full text
Abstract:
As taxation has become a prominent issue in international development policy, much research has focused on taxpayers’ perceptions and experiences of taxation using cross-country comparative survey data. However, insufficient attention has been paid to issues related to content validity and the cross-context comparability of tax-related concepts key to analyses of many topics, including relationships between willingness to pay taxes and perceptions of corruption, state legitimacy and public service provision. While serious questions have been raised about the data quality in some quantitative work in African studies, little attention has been given to the specific problems of using cross-country survey data. We encourage critical reflection concerning the use of tax-related data across diverse contexts. We show that a tax by any other name does not retain the same meaning across contexts. We argue that taxation studies, particularly survey-based research, should be informed by a deeper understanding of the contextual meanings ascribed to taxation. Greater prioritisation of conceptual analysis, mixed methods approaches and local language research will strengthen the measurement and interpretive validity of taxpayer perception data, and enhance understanding of taxpayers’ experience and interactions with tax systems.

Full text
Abstract:
Trust is the glue that holds society together. The decline of trust in government and the institutions of civil society is one of the gravest issues facing Australia today. The decline of trust in civil society is linked to the rise of a widespread sense of grievance. One reason that this is so serious is that a feeling of grievance is one of the things that fuels extremism. Governments cannot ignore this crisis. However, there are some actions they can take. As this report shows, trust is built—or broken—through behaviour. To meet today’s challenges, we need practical, sustained efforts to embed trust building across government-community relationships. This report extends on findings from the 2024 Trust Flows project report. The findings from this study offer grounded, actionable strategies for rebuilding trust between governments and communities, recognising that trust is shaped not only by policy but by processes, consistent behaviours, reciprocity, and sustained relationships. This report proposes four priority actions: Improve access to government systems by simplifying language and processes. Invest in community capability through support, governance training, and equitable access. Equip government officials with training to build and maintain trust with communities. Establish a Trust Lab to lead innovation and embed trust-building across institutions. These actions are preventative, not reactive. Clearly, there are some external factors, such as international malevolent actors, that seek to undermine Australian society. However, governments in Australia should look to increase investments in social cohesion and institutional legitimacy at a time when both are under pressure. This Report builds on the 2024 Trust Flows Report.
