Teaching English to Young Learners
Aimed at student teachers, educators and practitioners, Teaching English Language to Young Learners outlines and explains the crucial issues, themes and scenarios relating to this area of teaching. Each chapter by a leading international scholar offers a thorough introduction to a central theme of English as a foreign language (EFL) with preteens, with clear presentation of the theoretical background and detailed references for further reading, providing access to the most recent scholarship. Exploring the essential issues critically and in-depth, including the disadvantages as well as advantages of Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) with young learners, topics include: - task-based learning in the primary school; - storytelling; - drama; - technology; - vocabulary development; - intercultural understanding; - Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) scenarios; - assessment. Innovative and rapidly emerging topics are covered, such as immersion teaching, picturebooks in the EFL classroom and English with pre-primary children.
Radicalization in Belgium and the Netherlands
The concept of 'radicalization' is now used to account for all forms of violent and non-violent political Islam. Used widely within the security services and picked up by academia, the term was initially coined by the General Intelligence and Security Service of the Netherlands (AIVD) after the 9/11 and Pentagon attacks, an origin that is rarely recognised. This book comprises contributions from leading scholars in the field of critical security studies to trace the introduction, adoption and dissemination of 'radicalization' as a concept. It is the first book to offer a critical analysis and history of the term as an 'empty signifier', that is, a word that might not necessarily refer to som...
Teaching and Learning English in the Primary School
This book is the first comprehensive investigation of interlanguage pragmatic issues in a primary school context that is based on both primary school teachers’ statements on their own teaching realities, views and preferences, and a thorough investigation of materials used by teachers and recommended by teacher educators in the state the primary schools are located in. It offers a contrastive analysis of primary school learners acquiring English in a typical English as a foreign language school context and their age peers in the same state that are exposed to English in a school immersion context. This book will be of interest to scholars, researchers, educators in higher education that focus on English language teaching, second language acquisition and applied linguistics. It is also intended for students who are planning to become primary school teachers of English as a foreign language.
Der Nahe Osten im Umbruch
Dieser Band befasst sich mit den derzeit beobachtbaren tiefgreifenden sozialen, ökonomischen und politischen Transformationen in der arabischen Welt, die jedoch auf der Ebene der politischen Systeme von Stagnation und Autoritarismus gekennzeichnet sind. Ziel der Beiträge ist es, innovative theoretische Ansätze aus den Politik- bzw. den Sozialwissenschaften mit konkreter empirischer Forschung zu außenpolitischen, wirtschaftlichen und gesellschaftspolitischen Entwicklungen in der Region zu verknüpfen. Drei Faktoren spielen dabei eine zentrale Rolle: innergesellschaftliche Transformationsprozesse, externe Einflussnahmen (insbesondere Demokratieförderung) und die Rolle von ökonomischen und politischen Renten. Das Buch erscheint als Band 1 der Reihe „Politik und Gesellschaft des Nahen Ostens“.
Political Muslims
In the last few decades, the media, academics, and the general public have put considerable focus on Muslim culture and politics around the world. Specifically, the rising population of young Muslims has generated concerns about religious radicalism, Islamism, and conflicts in multicultural societies. However, few studies have been devoted to how a new generation of Muslims is reshaping society in positive ways. In Political Muslims, Abbas and Hamid provide a new perspective on Muslim youth, presenting them as agents of creative social change and as active participants in cultural and community organizations where resistance leads to negotiated change. In a series of case studies that cross ...
