Dialogue in Places of Learning: Youth Amplified in South Africa By Adam Cooper
2016 | 190 Pages | ISBN: 1138194638 | PDF | 3 MB
Showing how youth from one of the poorest and most violent neighborhoods in Cape Town, South Africa, learn differently in three educational contexts― in classrooms, in a community hip hop crew, on a youth radio show―this book illuminates how South African schools, like schools elsewhere, subtly reproduce inequalities by sorting students into social hierarchies linked to assessments of their use of language. Highlighting the voices and perspectives of young South Africans, this case study of youth in the global South explores how language is linked to cultural mixing which occurred during colonialism and slavery and continues through patterns of global mobility. Dialogue in Places of Learning: Youth Amplified in South Africa demonstrates how language and learning are bound to space and place.

Christopher Lyons, "Definiteness "
English | ISBN: 0521368359 | | 404 pages | PDF | 1330 KB
Definiteness is the concept expressed by definite articles such as "the", and also by other expressions such as demonstratives ("this", "that") and personal pronouns. This textbook surveys such expressions in the many languages of the world, and also examines the theoretical literature on this aspect of grammar, to establish what definiteness is and how languages can express it.
