IGI Global Intercultural Foreign Language Teaching and Learning in Higher Education Contexts
Book SynopsisWhile research into intercultural teaching has grown exponentially during the past two decades, the research has primarily resorted to the use of quantitative data collection instruments and the interpretation of scores calculated through them. As such, studies in the field can seem somewhat decontextualized, ignoring in some cases setting-specific parameters. Therefore, further study is needed to bring together theory, research, and practice demonstrating how this teaching is reflected in research design and how it is undertaken in different settings. Intercultural Foreign Language Teaching and Learning in Higher Education Contexts is an essential reference source that provides a series of rich insights into the way intercultural education is practiced in numerous international contexts and showcases practical examples of teaching situations and classroom activities that demonstrate its impact within the classroom. Featuring research on topics such as higher education, multilingualism, and professionalism, this book is ideally designed for educators, researchers, administrators, professionals, academicians, and students seeking pedagogical guidance on intercultural teaching.

Wilfrid Laurier University Press Listening Up, Writing Down, and Looking Beyond: Interfaces of the Oral, Written, and Visual
Book Synopsis Listening Up, Writing Down, and Looking Beyond is an interdisciplinary collection that gathers the work of scholars and performance practitioners who together explore questions about the oral, written, and visual. The book includes the voices of oral performance practitioners, while the scholarship of many of the academic contributors is informed by their participation in oral storytelling, whether as poets, singers, or visual artists. Its contributions address the politics and ethics of the utterance and text: textualizing orature and orality, simulations of the oral, the poetics of performance, and reconstructions of the oral. Trade Review"Listening Up, Writing Down, and Looking Beyond is a compelling read will be of interest to scholars and practitioners of literature and orature, life- writing and historiography, mixed-media writing and performance poetry." - Milena Marinkova, University of Huddersfield, British Journal for Canadian Studies, Vol.27 No.1 2014``The essays in Susan Gingell's and Wendy Roy's Listening Up, Writing Down, and Looking Beyond shake [the] simplistic binary [of the oral/written divide] to its very core, theorizing the inevitable interdependency of sound, sign, sight, and site.... Often employing language alive with poetic energy, what I will term the essays within Listening Up trouble the sensory depletion expected of standard academic prose while exploring âthree thematic arcs: performance poetics, print textualizations of the oral, and the place of visual culture at the oral-written interfaceâ.... Multimodal movement ... occurs with disarming and delightful frequency in the essays that coalesce to make Listening Up an extraordinarily valuable addition to the study of orality, performance poetry, textualization, and multisensory embodied experience.'' -- Sam McKegney, Queen's University -- Chimo, #64, Fall 2012``This collection breaks important new ground in the use of âorality and literacyâ approaches to discourse and poetics. Particularly valuable is its constant integration of scholarly criticism and theory with creative practice, theoretical reflection with lived experiences of performance and artifact. The Introduction offers a memorable set of clarifications, highly sympathetic to the demands of creative practice, around the theory of orality and literacy, while the chapters bring Gingell and Roy's exposition of the themes to an extremely rich and varied range of applications.'' -- Tom Clark, Victoria University (Melbourne), author of Stay onMessage: Poetry and Truthfulness in Political Speech (2012)Table of Contents Listening Up, Writing Down, and Looking Beyond, edited by Susan Gingell and Wendy Roy Acknowledgements Introduction Opening the Door to Transdisciplinary, Multimodal Communication Susan Gingell with Wendy Roy Listening Up: Performance Poetics Bring Da Noise: The Poetics of Performance, chez d'bi young and Oni Joseph George Elliott Clarke the storyteller's integrity (only at http://drc.usask.ca/projects/oral only) d'bi.young.anitafrika Poetry Performances on the Page and Stage: Insights from Slam Helen Gregory Poetry and Overturned Cars: Why Performance Poetry Can't Be Studied (and Why We Should Study It Anyway) Hugh Hodges Echohomonymy: A Poetics of Ethos, Eros, and Erasure Adeena Karasick Dialect Poetry and the Need for Performance: The Case of William Barnes T.L.
