Saleegul summary
The document discusses several techniques for identifying themes in qualitative research data, including looking at local terms, metaphors, analogies, linguistic connectors, similarities and differences, transitions, missing data, and theory-related material. It also discusses processing techniques such as cutting and sorting, multi-dimensional scaling (MDS), and analyzing words and key words in context.
Branches of linguistics
This document outlines the main branches of linguistics, including theoretical (general) linguistics, descriptive/applied linguistics, micro linguistics, and macro linguistics. Theoretical linguistics is concerned with frameworks for describing languages, concepts and categories, and theories about universal aspects of language. Descriptive and applied linguistics describe data to confirm or refute language theories and apply concepts in areas like language teaching. Micro linguistics takes a narrow view of language structure, while macro linguistics takes a broad view relating language to other sciences and its application in daily life. Specific branches covered include phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and more.
Abstracts
An abstract is a short summary of completed work that makes the reader want to learn more. It includes the problem investigated, subjects, experimental method, results, and conclusions in 1 paragraph of 100-150 words using simple past tense, third person singular, and facts without opinion. It should be complete, concise, clear, and cohesive. The example abstract summarizes a study examining the oral performance of two bilingual groups, adolescents and adults, which found adolescents improved more on most measures after twice taking tests in July and September.
Introduction to linguistics lec 1
This document provides an introduction to the field of linguistics. It defines linguistics as the scientific study of language and discusses how it differs from traditional grammar in being descriptive rather than prescriptive. The document outlines the scope of linguistics, dividing it into micro- and macrolinguistics. Microlinguistics includes the study of phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics. Macrolinguistics encompasses sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics and other fields. It also discusses the usefulness of linguistics for students of language, teachers and researchers.

The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in Singapore public schools is guided by the Ministry of Education (MOE), whose ICT Masterplan (MP) outlines the vision and goals for ICT-in-education. The latest initiative, ICT MP4, has been uploaded onto the internet for public consumption. Through an examination of MP4, I am interested to know how MOE uses language to communicate policy initiatives, and how the usage reflects the ideologies and world-views pertaining to Singapore’s education landscape and society. Hence, my research question:
“What ideologies and realities can be identified through a discourse analysis of the education ministry’s masterplan for ICT in Singapore?”
Using discourse analysis, I examined the linguistic and functional aspects of MP4 at the micro level to uncover strategies used by the authors to persuade readers of their policy. These helped to anchor my macro-analysis of discourse as a social practice, involving the identification of problematisation, power relations, recontextualisation and unquestionable truths. While the MP4 was crafted in a concise and straightforward manner through the use of simple sentence structures and infographics, it seemed to portray a neo-liberal view of the world as a market with unlimited opportunities. It also seemed to promote the ideology that to benefit from the ICT-driven world, the public should continue to support MOE’s initiative and students should equip themselves with the prescribed ICT knowledge and skills which suggested an essentialist philosophy of education. Furthermore, it seemed that the different discourses of policymaking, education, technology and future economy were mixed together to apparently construct a certain identity of MOE with particular values and authority – it was visionary and capable of delivering what it promised, it was the authority in ICT-in-education and it always had the best interests of students at heart.Introduction to linguistics
This document provides an overview of a lecture on linguistics. It discusses the key properties of human languages, including productivity, creativity, flexibility, compositionality, and the combination of basic units through rules. Productivity refers to the ability of languages to generate an unlimited number of sentences. Most words and sentences are rare based on Zipf's law. Compositionality allows humans to understand novel sentences by recognizing the meanings of parts and how they are combined. The creativity of language use refers to human choices in communication, which remain mysterious.

Writer profile intro
This document discusses a student's writing process based on an analysis of his transcript. It was found that the student's process was recursive, with shuttling between intended meaning and the written words. The student also engaged in extensive editing focused on syntax, word choices, and organization. However, the simple editing rules did not always fit the complex structures, sometimes leading to misapplications or meaning changes. Additionally, the student sometimes took the reader's understanding for granted without fully explaining ideas.
Pragmatic
Pragmatics is the study of how context contributes to meaning in language. It includes speech act theory, conversational implicature, and other approaches to understanding language use. Pragmatics examines how the actual meaning of an utterance is understood based on the context, including who is speaking, their shared knowledge and assumptions, and conversational implicatures which are meanings implied but not directly stated. Conversation analysis is one approach used in pragmatics to study how participants construct turns in conversation and repair problems. Discourse refers to a instance of language that can be classified based on factors like grammar, lexicon, themes, and the knowledge framework of the listener. An implicature is any inferred meaning from an utterance that is not essential to

An Introduction to Applied Linguistics
The document provides an overview of applied linguistics, including:
- Its origins in the 1940s through efforts to ally language teaching with linguistics.
- Definitions that describe it as concerned with investigating and solving real-world problems involving language.
- Its problem-based and interdisciplinary nature in drawing on linguistics and other fields like psychology to address issues in areas like language teaching, literacy, and language policy.
- Key topics it addresses including language learning, teaching, assessment, use, and pathology.
- Its focus on applying linguistic knowledge to resolve language problems people face in various contexts.
Linguistic and Applied linguistic contribution to English Teaching
Linguistics is the scientific study of language, divided into theoretical and applied fields. Theoretical linguistics includes phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. Applied linguistics applies linguistic theories to solve practical problems and is interdisciplinary, drawing from fields like psychology and education. It is concerned with language teaching, learning, and use. Key areas include second language acquisition, teaching methodology, assessment, translation, and forensic linguistics. Applied linguists use theories but are consumers not producers of theories.
Genre analysis
This study analyzed the macro and micro structures of thesis and dissertation abstracts across disciplines and cultures. The researchers examined 552 abstracts written by native English speakers, native Persian speakers, and other language speakers. They found that introduction and statement of aims were obligatory elements, while structures like IMRD were optionally used. Cultural and disciplinary differences also influenced structure selection. The researchers then explicitly taught abstract structure models to 35 Iranian researchers. After instruction, the Iranian researchers' abstracts more closely followed the target structures, showing the benefits of explicit genre instruction for non-native speakers.
Linguistics and its classification
Linguistics is the scientific study of human language and its use. It can be divided into several subfields that study language from different perspectives, including descriptive linguistics, which studies particular languages, and general linguistics, which studies language in general. Some key subfields are phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, and neurolinguistics. Applied linguistics focuses on practical applications of linguistic research.

This study examined whether a method called meaningful interpretation and chunking (MIC) could improve students' learning and retention of Chinese characters. Students were randomized into a treatment group, who learned characters using MIC, and a control group, who learned through rote repetition of stroke order. The treatment group showed better immediate learning and retention of characters. The teacher-cued method and familiar independent work were more effective than teacher-instructed and unfamiliar work. The treatment effect varied across measurement components, instruction levels, and heritage versus non-heritage groups.

This document summarizes a research study that analyzed and compared the inaugural addresses of two South Korean presidents from different political ideologies: President Roh Moo-hyun (2003-2008) and President Lee Myung-bak (2008-2013). The study used textual analysis methods including KrKwic (Korean Key Words in Context) and K-LIWC (Korean Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count) to examine the linguistic characteristics and structures of the addresses. The results showed similarities and differences in the key issues and linguistic styles between the two presidents that reflected their differing political perspectives. The study concluded the methodology provided insights into how rhetorical substance and style relate to a president's political viewpoints.
Seminar applied linguistics
The document discusses the interactionist approach to second language acquisition (SLA). It explains that the interactionist approach focuses on how social interaction and modified input through negotiation of meaning promotes language acquisition. The interaction hypothesis posits that interactional modification makes input comprehensible, comprehensible input promotes acquisition, and therefore interactional modification promotes acquisition. The document also provides a critical review of some key aspects of the interactionist perspective, such as the role of modified input and the importance of social context in SLA.
Five generations of Applied Linguistics
This document discusses the field of applied linguistics. It provides several definitions of applied linguistics, including that it utilizes linguistic research findings to improve practical language-related tasks, and that it mediates between linguistic theory and real-world practice. Applied linguistics involves what we know about language, how it is learned, and how it is used. The document also outlines five generations of applied linguistics characterized by different approaches, and distinguishes linguistics as the scientific study of language from applied linguistics which puts linguistic theories into practice in various language-related fields.

Out of my orthographic depth
1) There are several key differences between a writing system, orthography, and script that impact second language reading. An orthography is the implementation of a writing system in a specific language.
2) The transparency or opacity of an orthography, as well as syllable complexity, influence the difficulty of learning to read. More transparent orthographies are easier for learners, while opaque orthographies require additional strategies like analogical reasoning.
3) First language reading experience impacts second language reading development through transfer effects. Similarities between first and second language orthographies can facilitate reading, while differences can cause interference. Phonological processing abilities are important for reading in any language.

- This document discusses the influence of applied linguistics on English language teaching. It raises questions about how applied linguistics can impact teachers and whether teaching is practical or theoretical.
- The major focuses of applied linguistics in language teaching include teacher training, materials development, testing/assessment, and describing the language itself.
- Linguistics provides descriptions of language that influence teaching approaches, while applied linguistics bridges linguistics and practical teaching activities.
Hype vs. Reality: The AI Explainer
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.
Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving Cars
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

Communicative-discursive models and cognitive linguistics
This document provides an overview of cognitive linguistics and communicative-discursive models. It discusses the goals of understanding language through its systematic structure and the functions it serves to encode and transmit ideas. Language allows humans to symbolically represent concepts and communicate through meaningful linguistic symbols and strings of words that activate rich encyclopedic knowledge. Cognitive linguistics studies how language reflects patterns of conceptualization in the mind.

Sample abstracts of each type are presented and guidelines are provided on tense usage, ordering of information, and sources.
Methods in cognitive linguistics
This document summarizes methods used in cognitive linguistics. It begins by defining cognitive linguistics as exploring the relationship between language and cognition. It then discusses several key methods in cognitive linguistics, including analyzing conceptual categorization, studying language as a reflection of cognition, and investigating topics like conceptual metaphor and linguistic relativity. The document concludes by noting cognitive linguistics analyzes how language mediates knowledge of the world.
Discourse Analysis ppt
This document provides an overview of discourse analysis including definitions, approaches, and how it relates to other fields. It defines discourse analysis as the study of language use beyond the sentence level, including how language functions in social and cultural contexts. Three main approaches are discussed: speech act theory which examines communicative acts, ethnography of communication which analyzes patterns of communication in cultures, and pragmatics which studies how context informs meaning. The document also explains how discourse analysis relates to other fields like sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, and pragmatics through their shared interests but different data sources.

thesis presentation
This document provides background information and outlines the methodology for a study analyzing the rhetorical moves of introduction and discussion sections in international and Indonesian research journal articles. Specifically:
- Indonesia publishes fewer research articles internationally compared to countries like Singapore and Malaysia, indicating opportunities to increase publication rates.
- The study will examine rhetorical moves in introductions and discussions from international and Indonesian journals to understand similarities and differences between native and non-native English writers.
- A content analysis methodology will be used to systematically analyze and quantify variables in the collected journal articles.
Speech act theory for language teaching
Speech act theory provides insights for English language teaching. It examines utterances as having locutionary meaning (literal meaning), illocutionary meaning (intended social function), and perlocutionary meaning (intended effect). Research shows cross-cultural differences in how speech acts like requests and apologies are performed. For English language teaching, materials should present speech acts in their sociocultural contexts to help learners understand appropriateness and avoid pragmatic errors.

Cognition in discourse
- Cognitive linguistics is an approach to studying language, cognition, and meaning that recognizes language as a tool for organizing and conveying information through discourse rather than isolated sentences.
- It provides theoretical frameworks like mental spaces and subjectivity to model discourse structure and has extended insights from categorization research to coherence relations in text.
- Cognitive linguistics studies language in actual use and relies on corpora of natural discourse to empirically test cognitively plausible theories.
English 344 session 1
This document provides an introduction and overview of an English 344 course on second language acquisition (SLA). It outlines the course objectives of exploring fundamental SLA concepts from linguistic, socio-cognitive, and sociocultural approaches. The document also briefly summarizes the historical development of the field from behaviorist to current sociocultural theories. Students are assigned to purchase course texts, set up a blog, and submit their first blog post by the next Tuesday at noon.
Discourse analysis
Discourse analysis involves studying language beyond the sentence level, including conversations and written texts. There are various approaches to discourse analysis from different fields like sociology, linguistics, and philosophy. Sociological approaches include conversational analysis which examines turn-taking, openings/closings of conversations. Systemic functional linguistics views language as evolving based on its social functions and analyzes texts in relation to social contexts. Critical discourse analysis considers how power and social domination are reproduced through language.
Introduction to linguistics lec 1
This document provides an introduction to the field of linguistics. It defines linguistics as the scientific study of language and discusses how it differs from traditional grammar in being descriptive rather than prescriptive. The document outlines the scope of linguistics, dividing it into micro- and macrolinguistics. Microlinguistics includes the study of phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics. Macrolinguistics encompasses sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics and other fields. It also discusses the usefulness of linguistics for students of language, teachers and researchers.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their Mainframe
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.
[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
