Abstract:

This thesis investigates the language used in six fictional television series (1997 – 2014). The overall aim is to find out how linguistic patterns contribute to distinguishing features of characters and character groups. Throughout the thesis, I answer three overarching questions: 1.How are individual linguistic variables used for purposes of characterization? 2.How do linguistic variables interact to create linguistic character styles? 3.Are characterization patterns used in similar ways across characters within individual series, as well as across series?

This paper examines how teachers interpret and implement in practice certain learning goals of English language teaching in the Finnish national curriculum for comprehensive education which was written in 2014, and which will be implemented starting in 2016.

The study concentrates on one of the five learning goals set for English language teaching in grades 7–9, called “Growth to cultural diversity and language awareness” and its three subgoals.

Abstract:

The present study aims to explore in what ways teachers work in a heterogeneous classroom with particular focus on the students’ diverse knowledge of the English language – a diversity caused by the fact that there are numerous students who learn English in an informal context outside of school, at the same time as there are those students who do not. In order to explore this aim, a study was conducted where five teachers at upper secondary level were interviewed. The results show that this diversity is the most challenging part of working as an English teacher today as experienced by four of

<p> English Language Learners (ELLs) are one of the fastest growing student populations throughout the country. With ELLs come unique challenges schools must navigate to best serve these students. One challenge is the identification of these students and proper placement and service within ELL programs offered by schools. Another challenge is determining if an ELL also has a disability, particularly a learning disability, since language proficiency problems can mimic learning disability symptoms. This study sought to discover how states identify ELLs, and especially ELLs with disabilities (ELL

It will be argued here that in the Unonia International School many students' language repertoires are central to their lives in ways that differ from those in national schools, and that these students can benefit from an enrichment of their language repertoires.

Abstract:

This thesis argues against the claim of linguistic and cultural homogenization widely believed to be induced by the spread of English worldwide by looking at how native and non-native speakers alike re-appropriate the perceived model of 'Standard English' to fit the frames of their own culture and to express their own identity. The hypothesis that this thesis builds on is that the language each of us speaks reflects one's own individual background, the communities that one belongs to, and the identity that one wants to convey. As English is assimilated by the people of the world, their cultura

The key to Shelley's thought system lies in understanding that the thing and its opposite, the idea and its contrary, are brought together simultaneously.

He makes the unity of life his manifesto and yet does not deny the diversity of beings. The ontological clearly has a place within his system and nonetheless the phenomena are considered epistemological divisions, non-essential and insubstantial. He believes in the existence of

Apart from facilitating teaching and learning, school textbooks in general convey a great number of both explicit and implicit messages about society at large.

Abstract:

Several theorists (amongst whom Halliday & Matthiessen, 2004:175) have stated that the verb (or the verbal group) is the core element in clauses and is largely responsible for the grammatical structure of language. In spite of this pivotal role that verbs fulfil in clauses, lexical specificity is rarely investigated in this class. Instead researchers prefer to investigate lexical specificity in the noun class. It is against this background that the main purpose of this study is to investigate specificity in the lexical verbs of first language (L1) English users and Black South African English

Abstract:

This thesis investigates whether institutional journalism should receive special treatment at the hands of the law. Special treatment encompasses the affording of benefits to and the imposition of liabilities on journalistic institutions and the individuals who work for them. The arguments against special treatment are pragmatic and theoretical: pragmatic arguments emphasise, inter alia, the difficulty of providing a definition of journalism, and theoretical arguments emphasise the difficulty in explaining why special treatment can be coherent. The former can be addressed by describing how spe

Abstract:

This essay investigates how the first person narrative of Mark Haddon’s neurodiverse protagonist in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time raises awareness for the complexity of neurodiversity in relation to a neurotypical society. This has been done by applying the critical lens of Disability Studies and Disability Studies in Education to explain how disability is a concept of social and cultural construct. As the Swedish school has failed to provide neurodiverse students with the inclusive environment they need, the importance of fostering students who are accepting towards cognit

Abstract:

Les diatomées constituent un groupe majeur du phytoplancton marin. Ces microalgues peuvent former des blooms saisonniers considérables ayant des implications biogéochimiques importantes notamment sur l’export de carbone. A ce jour, la manière dont le parasitisme structure leur développement reste élusive. L’objectif de cette thèse était d’identifier le(s) parasite(s) associé(s) aux diatomées prédominantes en Manche Occidentale afin de mieux comprendre comment le parasitisme contrôle les blooms de ces microalgues. La première partie de cette thèse visait à décrire le réseau de parasites qui rég
