Once celebrated as the city that works, Toronto is a city on the brink. Strained by urban sprawl, crumbling infrastructure, and outdated governance, Toronto is coming apart at the seams. Its promise — of livability, opportunity, and innovation — is being undermined by years of inaction and political gridlock.But all is not lost.In this book, ten leading City Builders set out a bold, practical roadmap to turn things around. Together, they show how we can:make local government workfind the money to fix what’s brokensolve the housing crisisunclog our streets and transitconfront the climate emergencynavigate the rise of big techfoster social solidarityand design spaces that bring people together.This is a wake-up call — Toronto’s future is still ours to shape.
Del 118 - Second Language Acquisition
Crosslinguistic Influence and Distinctive Patterns of Language Learning
Findings and Insights from a Learner Corpus
Inbunden, Engelska, 2017

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book details patterns of language use that can be found in the writing of adult immigrant learners of Norwegian as a second language (L2). Each study draws its data from a single corpus of texts written for a proficiency test of L2 Norwegian by learners representing 10 different first language (L1) backgrounds. The participants of the study are immigrants to Norway and the book deals with the varying levels and types of language difficulties faced by such learners from differing backgrounds. The studies examine the learners’ use of Norwegian in relation to the morphological, syntactic, lexical, semantic and pragmatic patterns they produce in their essays. Nearly all the studies in the book rely on analytical methods specifically designed to isolate the effects of the learners’ L1s on their use of L2 Norwegian, and every chapter highlights patterns that distinguish different L1 groups from one another.

Del 97 - New Perspectives on Language and Education
Crossing Borders, Writing Texts, Being Evaluated
Cultural and Disciplinary Norms in Academic Writing
Häftad, Engelska, 2021
462 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book provides critical perspectives on issues relating to writing norms and assessment, as well as writing proficiency development, and suggests that scholars need to both carefully examine testing regimes and develop research-informed perspectives on tests and testing practices. In this way schools, institutions of adult education and universities can better prepare learners with differing cultural experiences to meet the challenges. The book brings together empirical studies from diverse geographical contexts to address the crossing of literacy borders, with a focus on academic genres and practices. Most of the studies examine writing in countries where the norms and expectations are different, but some focus on writing in a new discourse community set in a new discipline. The chapters shed light on commonalities and differences between these two situations with respect to the expectations and evaluations facing the writers. They also consider the extent to which the norms that the writers bring with them from their educational backgrounds and own cultures are compromised in order to succeed in the new educational settings.
