Essay Guidelines Do you know English is NOT the official national languages in the US? Do you know only 28 states in the US have established English as the official language? How does a new country that is made up of immigrants identify itself given there is no official national language? For essay assignment 3, you’re asked to write an ARGUMENT essay based on your understanding from this week’s readings and videos. As a bilingual, I believe you had the experience of switching between two languages when speaking in your native language when hanging out with your friends (as a private language), and talking with your American friends/classmates in English (as in public). I'm interested in learning whether you feel any differences when speaking in two languages. For example, do you feel more gentle, aggressive, nagging, convincing, powerful, logical or concise (and there are many other characteristics which define the speaker of that specific language) with your native language or English? Topic Multilingualism or English Only Structure Define “language diversity” and explain the multilingual situation in the US. State your perspectives/argument. Relate how language one speaks may shape his/her identities in public or private. You might want to add your personal experience to illustrate how your identity may change when you switch between different languages. Please include statistics, data or citations. Discuss whether English should be the official national language of the US to cultivate a national identity, or multilingual policy should be cultivated and implemented to preserve individual identity in the US. Format Your paper should be at least 750 words, with three to four supporting paragraphs. Write your thesis statement in the first or second paragraph of the paper. You must also include at least 1-2 citations in the paper. Remember what we’ve discussed about using citation, summary and paraphrase to avoid plagiarism. USE MLA citation .

WEEK 2 Disscussion 1 Some students think that they do not have much of a cultural background because they were not born outside of the United States or because they do not speak another language. The truth is that everyone has a culture! Prepare: As you prepare to write your discussion for this topic, take time to do the following: Read the writing prompt below in its entirety. Note that there are three tasks to complete: Define culture and explain its importance in communication. Describe your own culture. Explain how your culture shapes how you communicate with others, including those from different cultures. Review Chapter 3 of your text and identify at least one point about culture and communication to discuss in your post. Develop a definition of culture and explain its importance in communication. Review the grading rubric and note that 25% of your grade is based on your application of course material (Content/Subject Knowledge) and 25% is based on your ability to demonstrate you are thinking critically and presenting original ideas. Reflect: Based on what you have learned in Chapter 3, think about key elements of your own culture and how it influences both the style and content of your communication. Think about how your culture shapes how you communicate with others, especially those who are from other cultures. Why is culture important in understanding effective communication? How can knowing about your own culture help you build bonds and/or bridge cultural divides? Write: Based on what you have learned in class this week Define culture and explain why it is important to understanding communication. Explain how paying attention to culture can make you a better communicator. Describe your own culture and share with us what makes you who you are. Your culture can be related to your race, ethnicity, gender, age, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, media preferences, hobbies, religion, etc. Try not to focus on just one of these aspects of yourself, but instead utilize as many cultural elements as possible. Think about both style (how you speak) and content (what interests you). How does your culture affect your communication with those in your own culture and those from other cultures? Thoroughly respond to the discussion elements by writing at least one to two sentences on your definition and then two to three sentences on each of the remaining two elements. Use the course readings, with full APA citations, at least once to help you make your points. Consider copying and pasting all three tasks into a word file and addressing each of them separately. WEEK 2 Disscussion 2 Bevan and Sole (2014) present theories that women and men communicate differently based growing up in “different cultures” or that they are similar based on the “gender similarities” hypothesis. For this discussion, you will be required to think through these ideas by relating these arguments to what you learn in a video you will watch on gender and c.

1 Essay Assignment #3 Length: five-to-six pages not including Works Cited Argumentation with thematic synthesis of materials – In this assignment, you are required to show your ability to argue a controversial issue by taking a position and persuading your readers with convincing evidence that your position is more valid than that of your opponents. For this task, you need to draw on your abilities to succinctly and accurately summarize different writers’ points of view and to make connections among source materials, and between your own ideas and those presented in sources. Generally, bilingualism can be defined as “the ability to speak two languages easily and naturally” or “the regular use of two languages in everyday communication.” In the context of the USA and as a topic of controversy, however, bilingualism refers to the use of another language besides English in public services to accommodate immigrants, including voting ballots, government documents, court proceedings, and education in public schools in the form of bilingual education. Among these services, bilingual education is particularly controversial. Although these are various forms of bilingual education, as a topic of debate it is defined as teaching non-English speaking students all school subjects in their native language, instead of English (not besides English), before they move to English mainstream classes. This means that teachers use students’ native language only as their medium of instruction in classrooms. Please remember that bilingual education, as a topic of debate, does not refer to teaching or learning two languages. Against the movement of bilingualism, many people in the U.S. have attempted to make English the nation’s official language in part because that would mean the discontinuation of bilingual public services. Proponents of the “English Only” movement such as S. I. Hayakawa and Mauro Mujica argue that English should be made the official language of the U.S. by law because bilingualism leads to national disunity, places a large financial burden on government, and sends a wrong message to newcomers about the importance of learning English. They also claim that besides its financial burden and lessening of non-English students’ motivation to learn English, bilingual education impedes these students’ mastery of English, their academic progress, and their assimilation into mainstream America. On the other hand, opponents of the “English Only” movement such as James Fallows and James Crawford claim that it is not necessary to declare English the official language of the U.S. “because it already is that” (Fallows 263), that bilingual services do not reduce the incentive of immigrants to learn English and will not cause America to lose its national unity like such countries as Belgium and Sri Lanka. They further argue that when non-English speaking students receive several years of instruction in their native language (i.e., bilingual education), they l.

Working With Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Students Chapter 9 Cultural Differences in the Mainstream Classroom Cultures differ from one to along the following dimensions (Brown & Lundrum-Brown, 1995). Axiology – The interpersonal values held by members of a cultural group. Ethos – The beliefs that guide social interactions among members of a cultural group. Epistemology – Ways of knowing and learning. Accommodating Cultural Differences in the Classroom It is very important that you learn the cultural background of your students in order to build a report with the students. Learning cultural backgrounds can be achieved by doing the following: Read about students’ home cultures. Talk with family members to find out about their home literacy practices. Talk with community members or colleagues who are familiar with students’ home cultures. Linguistic Differences in the Mainstream Classroom Cultural Diversity and Linguistic Diversity are two different things. Linguistic differences refer to the different languages of different ethnic groups. Languages and Dialects. Often times different socio-economic classes have different dialects. There has been a great debate over the past few years about the following: Ebonics – Is it a dialect or is it incorrect grammar? Should we accommodate non-standard dialects within the classroom? How does English Compare to Other Languages? There are certain aspects of the English language that make it difficult to learn. The English language has more sounds than any other language. There are as many as 3x more sounds in the English language than any other. Consider the following aspects when analyzing the English language: Phonology Morphology Syntax How does English Compare to Other Languages? Aspects of the English Language Cont’d Pragmatics Writing Systems What Do We Do to Support English Language Development in the Mainstream Classroom? Make the classroom a space that is conducive to learning for English language learners. Provide “comprehensible input”. Encourage language production by English language learners. Draw English language learners’ attention to linguistic forms. Include home languages in the mainstream classroom.

Ling 210, Dr. Troyer Sociolinguistic Media Analysis Page 1 Popular TV programs (especially sit-coms) and films (especially animated cartoons) frequently feature characters with distinct dialects or strong accents. Often characters whose language is furthest from standard English are portrayed as uneducated, dishonest, or downright stupid. On the other hand, some non-standard ways of speaking are seen as romantic or exotic—alluring as opposed to laughable. In any case equating intelligence, morality, or sexual orientation with language is blatant pandering to stereotypes. As with all media, on one hand you can say these stereotypes are merely a reflection of many people’s actual beliefs (whether they are valid or not)—but you could also argue that the media perpetuates unwarranted connections between nonstandard and substandard. For this assignment, choose a film or TV program and one character in it who has a distinctly different non-standard dialect or accent from the other characters, and provide the following information. Clearly number and address ALL 9 topics! 1. Title of the film or program 2. Description of the character (physical, mental, emotional, personality, etc.): Write at least a paragraph about the character without mentioning anything about his or her use of language. 3. Character language: Is it a distinct regional or social dialect of English (from chapter 12), or is it an accent with influences from another language? 4. Phonology: Transcribe several lines or words from the character in phonetics, and below each, give the transcription of the same words in Standard Spoken English. Point out distinctive features of the character’s phonology which allow us to identify it as different from the standard English of a national news broadcaster, etc. 5. Morphology-Syntax: Are there any morpho-syntactic (i.e. grammatical) differences between the character’s usage and standard English? For example African American use of habitual BE or non- use of third person singular ‘s’ on verbs, or Chicano English use of en for both in and on, or for influence from other languages, lack of determiners (a, an, the), or lack of tense or plural markers. Give examples. 6. Lexicon: Give examples of lexical choices (words the character uses) that are unique to the dialect or accent being represented. Note that the focus is on a dialect, accent, or other stereotypical language, not the character’s idiolect. 7. Based on your knowledge of the film or program, is this combination of language representation and characterization an attempt to accurately portray socio-economic realities (a character from a wealthy southern family should talk like a southern aristocrat, and a character from an inner-city Detroit working class family should sound like a corresponding dialect)? Or is the dialect or accent used in order to add stereotypical personality traits to a character? Explain with at least a short paragraph ...

Ashford 3: - Week 2 - Assignment Style and Language Sensitivity Stovall (2015) writes: Writers must understand that language has the ability to define, offend, and demean. Readers and viewers of the mass media are a broad and diverse group, and those who would communicate with them should be aware of the language sensitivities of that group…Media writers and organizations should go beyond simply trying not to offend. They should make efforts to expand their thinking and news coverage to be inclusive toward groups that previously have not been part of the news…They should seek diversity for their work because the world is a diverse place. Taking these ideas into consideration, visit the Conscious Style Guide and scan through the articles. Choose one area of diversity on which to focus. Ability & Disability ● Age ● Appearance ● Ethnicity & Nationality ● Gender & Sexuality ● Health ● Othering After reading through the articles listed under your chosen area of diversity, write a paper that explores the importance of language sensitivity in journalism. Support your ideas with a personal experience, an event you witnessed, a current issue being discussed in the news, or how language sensitivity (or a lack thereof) may impact an individual or group of individuals. The paper must be between four and five pages in length and written according to AP style. You should use sources to support your claims, and be sure to properly cite all of your sources within the body of your paper and on the References page. For APA style guidance and examples, visit Ashford Writing Center’s APA Key Elements.

Post a response to the following by Thursday. Your post may be a combination of written text and an Adobe Connect video. If you upload an Adobe Connect video, attach an accurate Word transcript and include descriptions of any nonverbal cues. Consider writing your script before recording. Reading from a script may initially sound "forced," but you will gradually learn how to write scripts using a more "natural" voice. • The video assigned in this unit's Studies, Verbal Messages and Intercultural Communications , shows how verbal messages can be misconstrued, causing obstacles to intercultural communication. Do you believe that differences in language create the single biggest obstacle in intercultural communication? Why? Have you ever been in a situation where language has created a communication barrier? Explain. • Verbal messages are not the only type of communication that can be misunderstood. Nonverbal messages are also misread. To test this statement, include a nonverbal message with your post or Adobe Connect video. If you use Adobe Connect to create your message, attach a transcript that includes a description of nonverbal cues. Consider that the United States is comprised of multilingual groups, and language ties people to a culture. If we look at the United States as having many different cultures, the reason we need to develop intercultural competence is to be civil to those around us. For this discussion, consider how regional dialects, speech patterns, and idioms can separate people by making communication between groups more difficult or challenging. For example, people who live in the South can usually easily determine where in Texas someone is from, whereas someone from the Midwest would only "hear" Southern. Similarly, someone from the city of Boston is actually segregated by language; those who have lived in Boston for generations speak considerably differently than do those who arrived more recently. These situations can lead to stereotyping. Although there is no "right or wrong" regarding these practices, such differences can hamper understanding. Whether aware of it or not, each of us views the world based on the language stereotypes we have grown up with or been exposed to. How has this affected your perception of others based on their language use? (For example, what would come to mind when meeting or hearing someone from Louisiana's bayou country? Or New York, New Jersey, Canada, or northern Minnesota? Would meeting someone from Great Britain lead you to assume that the person is haughty?) Write about your own experiences or those of someone you know. How has language created stereotypes or internal biases in your own life? Post by Thursday. .

Renewable Energy Sources Can Satisfy Energy Demands Renewable Energy , 2012 "A fully sustainable renewable power supply is the only way we can secure energy for all and avoid environmental catastrophe." The following viewpoint is an extract from a report undertaken by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Ecofys (a consulting firm for sustainable energy projects), and the Office for Metropolitan Architecture. The viewpoint summarizes the findings of an Ecofys study that predicted the world can switch from fossil fuels to a fully renewable energy future by 2050. According to the study, most energy will be electricity-based, and that energy will be supplied chiefly by solar power. Wind power , geothermal heat, and water power will also serve to create electricity and heat homes. Finally the Ecofys scenario argues that biofuels will be needed to power some transport systems and industrial processes that require liquid fuels. According to the WWF and Ecofys, the renewables-driven future will save money, stall climate change , and create a sustainable energy system. As you read, consider the following questions: According to the WWF, by what percent does the International Energy Agency predict oil and gas reserves will fall by 2030? What percent of the world's energy needs does Ecofys claim can be satisfied by renewables in 2050? Why does Ecofys's scenario only provide for a small increase in hydropower by 2050? The way we produce and use energy today is not sustainable. Our main fossil fuel sources—oil, coal and gas—are finite natural resources, and we are depleting them at a rapid rate. Furthermore they are the main contributors to climate change, and the race to the last 'cheap' fossil resources evokes disasters for the natural environment as seen recently in the case of the [2010] BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. In the developing world, regional and local desertification is caused by depletion of fuelwood and other biomass sources that are often used very inefficiently, causing substantive indoor pollution and millions of deaths annually. A fully sustainable renewable power supply is the only way we can secure energy for all and avoid environmental catastrophe. Risks and Harms of Fossil Fuels While most of us take energy for granted as a basic right, a fifth of the world's population still has no access to reliable electricity—drastically reducing their chances of getting an education and earning a living. As energy prices increase, the world's poor will continue to be excluded. At the same time, more than 2.7 billion people are dependent on traditional bioenergy (mainly from wood, crop residues and animal dung) as their main source of cooking and heating fuel. This is often harvested unsustainably, causing soil erosion and increasing the risk of flooding, as well as threatening biodiversity and adding to greenhouse gas emissions . Traditional.
