Student Perceptions Of Community-Engaged Scholarship Courses: Developing A Sociolinguistic Corpus On The U.S.–Mexico Border, Katherine Christoffersen, Aubrey Villanueva, Ryan M. Bessett

Writing and Language Studies Faculty Publications

The well-documented benefits of community engagement experiences have resulted in its incorporation across a wide variety of disciplines, from health care (Alexander et al., 2020) to aviation science (Belt & Sweetman, 2021) to statistics (Schanz & Giles, 2021). The field of sociolinguistics is no exception with plentiful examples of community-engaged scholarship (CES) or “research of mutual benefit to community and academic interests” (Delugan et al., 2014, p. 155). One way that linguistics and language courses have integrated CES is through the development of community-based sociolinguistic corpora or collections of informal interviews with community members. In these courses, students are trained …

Pre-Service Teachers’ Epistemological Understanding Of The Language Of Instruction: Can Education Policy Stop Kiswahili In Tanzania’S Classrooms?, John Misana Biseko

Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences

Language-in-education policies in Sub-Saharan Africa is a topic that has attracted several researchers. The adoption of alien languages as legitimate languages of instruction is a matter that has been seriously challenged. Since the 1960s, the debate in Tanzania has been on which language qualifies for the status of LOI. The answers have been favouring either the alien language (English) or the dominant language (Kiswahili). In 2014 the government launched the education policy, which declares both English and Kiswahili as LOI in post-primary education. In the 2023 edition, the policy was changed to declare English as the sole LOI in post-primary …

But He Did Not Commit Incest…!” A Comparative Analysis Of Utenzi Wa Nyakiiru Kibi And Oedipus Rex, Angelus Mnenuka

Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences

Human beings share commonalities, many of which are intricately woven into literature. Literary works allow individuals to explore and gain insights into diverse cultures and ideas across spatiotemporal contexts. Against this backdrop, this study compared two literary works, Oedipus Rex (Sophocles, 1992) and Utenzi wa Nyakiiru Kibi [‘Epic of Nyakiiru-Kibi’] (Mulokozi, 1997), to gain insight into the two societies from which the stories are derived. Using Aarne and Thompson’s (1961) classification of the Oedipus story, the study finds that Utenzi wa Nyakiiru Kibi qualifies as an Oedipal story as it meets several Oedipal narrative motifs in the Oedipus story.

Improvement Of Calorimetric Quality Analyzers For Substances, Makhfuza Azimovna Radjabova Dec 2023

Improvement Of Calorimetric Quality Analyzers For Substances, Makhfuza Azimovna Radjabova

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

It is noted that the development of intelligent means of measuring qualitative indices is of topical importance. Since the quality of many substances is determined by optical methods, an algorithm for spectrophotometric data processing has been developed, which consists of primary data processing (stage I) and determination of qualitative indices of liquid products (stage II). Since the task of numerical determination of colour characteristics of transmittance coefficients of liquid samples is incorrectly set, it is recommended to use regularization methods of A.N.Tikhonov to improve metrological characteristics of the device. On the basis of regularization methods for solving incorrect problems, algorithms …

Puppy Love And [Information] Play: An Intersection Of Theatre, Queer Kink, And Consent, Emily Kitchens

Faculty Articles

This note from the field centers on a nexus of queer kink subcultures and consent-based intimacy work in theatre. I report, investigate and wrangle with the process of incorporating queer kink aesthetics into the production of Love and Information by Caryl Churchill I directed at KSU February 2023. What I have learned and hope to demonstrate throughout the paper, is that queer kink subcultures are often paradigmatic examples of communities built on consent, and we as performing arts practitioners can more visibly expand the margins of our cultural competency dialogues to not only include them but look to them as …

Investigating Power In Golding's 'Lord Of The Flies': A Stylistic Consideration, Salam Abbas Mahmood, Zamaan Tawfeeq Abdul-Hassan

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

"Lord of the files" is considered one of the famous fictions that treated the topics of psychology, power, and social relations. The current study, by adopting an aspect of Halliday's "Systemic Functional Linguistics" theory, investigates the ideological conception of different groups in relation to the notions of power, powerlessness, and fear. This is done by showing how power is represented in what each group feels and thinks towards the other. The analysis contributes to the character’s full understanding. The study also includes an analysis procedure namely the verb process elements of analysis, which the characters simplify about strength (power) and …

The Power Of Eponyms: Exploring Cultural And Social Factors In Their Adoption And Popularization, Sawsan A. Qasim Dec 2023

The Power Of Eponyms: Exploring Cultural And Social Factors In Their Adoption And Popularization, Sawsan A. Qasim

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

The aim of this article is to investigate eponyms, which are not just linguistic phenomena but also cultural since they demonstrate one's influence on society and history. Words formed from a person's name, such as "volt" from Alessandro Volta and "sandwich" from John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, are examples of eponyms. Eponyms can be used to honor prominent persons, such as scientists, innovators, or well-known figures. They also demonstrate how society prioritizes specific accomplishments or attributes, as in the situations of “Fahrenheit” and “Celsius,” which are named after two pioneering scientists in the field of temperature measurement. Eponyms may …

Learners’ Beliefs And Teachers’ Practice Of Grammar- Focused Written Corrective Feedback In The Malaysian Primary Esl Classrooms: A Pilot Study, Kuet Poh Pui, Wun Chiew Pung, Ai Ping Ho

Asia-Pacific Social Science Review

Written corrective feedback (WCF) is utilized by language teachers to address learners’ mistakes in writing. Although WCF studies should strike a balance between the viewpoints of teachers and learners, studies that focused on learners, especially young learners, have been limited. This study investigated Malaysian primary school learners’ beliefs of how they would like to receive written corrective feedback to grammatical mistakes (GWCF) in their essays, as well as what teachers actually did when providing GWCF in learners’ essays. Findings from the survey showed that the majority of the learners believed all the grammatical mistakes in writing should be indicated and …

Building Social Media Literacy In The Russian Language Classroom, Kelly Knickmeier Cummings

Russian Language Journal

This article presents ways to teach media literacy (ML) skills in Russian language classrooms with particular focus on developing proficiencies to navigate social media (SM) where information disorder is a critical concern. Because of its numerous configurations and applications, SM is understood broadly as “the creation and exchange of user-generated content.” After outlining critical concerns surrounding SM use, the discussion focuses on three conditions that affect the development of ML skills when trying to engage meaningfully online: cognitive vulnerabilities, unreliable narrators, and populist rhetoric. Developing an awareness of how these three conditions on SM impact decision-making and behavior online equips …
