Cultural Language Variations: An Examination Of Appalachian Discourse, Katherine Ward
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
Examinations of discourse are essential for documenting the linguistic variations of a particular culture. In turn, linguistic variations across cultures may suggest similar variations in global discourse measures. It is imperative for clinicians to first understand the framework and cultural norms of a particular dialect or language to properly identify deficits in disordered language. By first looking closely at specific aspects of discourse such as story grammar within a normative or non-brain injured population, clinicians can improve treatment protocols for working with aphasic or brain-injured clients.

In this paper I reflect on the alternative break movement and the impact it makes on community partners. I also give an overview of the Honors Learning Community alternative break trip to serve with Appalachia Service Project during the spring of 2014 and how it meets the Bowling Green State University learning outcomes.

The Socioeconomic Impact Of Coal In The Appalachian Region Of Kentucky,

The Socioeconomic Impact Of Coal In The Appalachian Region Of Kentucky, Laura Oxley
MPA/MPP/MPFM Capstone Projects
The coal debate seems to be in a state of inertia. Proponents of coal claim the industry brings economic benefit to Kentucky. Environmentalists claim the industry creates irreparable harm to the Appalachian Mountain region. While these opinions are not unfounded, seldom do stakeholders explore the impact incurred directly in the Appalachian communities that mine coal. Moving the debate to a discussion about coal’s direct impact in the communities that support the industry may broaden stakeholders’ perspective. Determining whether the industry helps or harms the Appalachian community may be the break in the debate’s stalemate. Thus, this paper explores the socioeconomic …
