Book excerpt: In a sweeping synthesis of new research in a number of different disciplines, this book argues that we humans are not who we think we are. As he explores the interconnections between cutting-edge work in bioanthropology, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, human language and learning, and beyond, James Paul Gee advances, also, a personal philosophy of language, learning, and culture, informed by his decades of work across linguistics and the social sciences. Gee argues that our schools, institutions, legal systems, and societies are designed for creatures that do not exist, thus resulting in multiple, interacting crises, such as climate change, failing institutions, and the rise of nationalist nationalism. As Gee constructs an understanding of the human that takes into account our social, collective, and historical nature, as established by recent research, he inspires readers to reflect for themselves on the very question of who we are—a key consideration for anyone interested in society, government, schools, health, activism, culture and diversity, or even just survival.

Download or read book God, Human Nature and Education for Peace written by Karl Ernst Nipkow and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. What prevents the human species from finally learning the lessons of social justice and global peace in an unreconciled world? Are Christians better off? Presenting new challenges to moral and religious education, this book clarifies the true image of the biblical God around the topics of justice and reconciliation. Rejuvenating interpretations of the most outstanding traditions of the Old and New Testament, Karl Ernst Nipkow's approach of 'elementarization' - well known in German speaking countries - is introduced for the first time in the English language. Theological perspectives are confronted with data from evolutionary ethics and social psychology, through practice-based examples of the roots of aggression, violence, xenophobia and ethno-centrism. The analysis ends with peace and spirituality in the light of different faiths. This book presents a striking blend of theology, education and the social sciences, to explore central issues in moral and religious education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of word meanings promises important insights into the nature of the human mind by revealing what people find to be most cognitively significant in their experience. However, as we learn more about the semantics of various languages, we are faced with an interesting problem. Different languages seem to be telling us different stories about the mind. For example, important distinctions made in one language are not necessarily made in others. What are we to make of these cross-linguistic differences? How do they arise? Are they created by purely linguistic processes operating over the course of language evolution? Or do they reflect fundamental differences in thought? In this sea of differences, are there any semantic universals? Which categories might be given by the genes, which by culture, and which by language? And what might the cross-linguistic similarities and differences contribute to our understanding of conceptual and linguistic development? The kinds of mapping principles, structures, and processes that link language and non-linguistic knowledge must accommodate not just one language but the rich diversity that has been uncovered. The integration of knowledge and methodologies necessary for real progress in answering these questions has happened only recently, as experimental approaches have been applied to the cross-linguistic study of word meaning. In Words and the Mind, Barbara Malt and Phillip Wolff present evidence from the leading researchers who are carrying out this empirical work on topics as diverse as spatial relations, events, emotion terms, motion events, objects, body-part terms, causation, color categories, and relational categories. By bringing them together, Malt and Wolff highlight some of the most exciting cross-linguistic and cross-cultural work on the language-thought interface, from a broad array of fields including linguistics, anthropology, cognitive and developmental psychology, and cognitive neuropsychology. Their results provide some answers to these questions and new perspectives on the issues surrounding them.

This book was released on 2024-04-26 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amidst the transformative tides reshaping the realm of English language education, educators, researchers, and practitioners grapple with a myriad of contemporary challenges. In recent years, the landscape of teaching and learning English as a second or foreign language (L2) has undergone a seismic shift, prompting a reevaluation of established practices. The dynamics of L2 education now face burgeoning issues such as fluctuating motivation levels among learners, evolving engagement dynamics in classrooms, and the expanding influence of technological advancements, particularly the pervasive use of computer-mediated communication, altering the traditional boundaries of language acquisition. The urgency to address these multifaceted concerns serves as the impetus for Exploring Contemporary English Language Education Practices, an edited book that unravels the complexities of the present-day L2 education panorama. This comprehensive volume, encapsulated by the title Exploring Contemporary English Language Education Practices, is not just a compilation of insights; it is a roadmap for navigating the intricate terrain of modern language education. The chapters within this book delve deep into the intricate fabric of second language motivation, learner engagement, emotional dimensions in language learning, classroom assessment strategies, corrective feedback methodologies, and the symbiotic relationship between technology and language acquisition.

This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of language teaching and learning inside the classroom is, in fact, under the circumstance of both philosophical assumption and ideological framework. Teaching programs and curricular sets are written on the basis of particular assumptions about the nature and the value of knowledge. These assumptions mainly determine the actual decisions in listing what items to be taught and learned along with how those items are delivered. Approaches in language teaching have always been developed, in one hand, under the consideration of linguistic/ psychological theories of learning and educational objectives along with the expected demands of classroom teaching and learning in the other hand.
