15 Short Stories For Vietnamese Learners by Ralf Krenning,Thi Phan Pdf

This book, the first of a collection dedicated to short stories, was created to fill a void in the area of Vietnamese learning materials. Beyond the traditional textbooks to learn the basics of the language, there are few to none resources allowing learners to deepen their knowledge of Vietnamese.These 15 Short Stories For Vietnamese Learners are meant to provide you with entertaining stories, along with a unique system of literal translation to allow you to fully understand the construction of more elaborate sentences in Vietnamese. What is the aim of this collection of stories?1) To provide a wide array of stories, with a double aim: make the reading pleasurable and to learn vocabulary used in different situations. 2) Gradual difficulty. This edition, intended for "beginners" only contains stories of less than 500 words, classified in increasing order. 3) Vietnamese being a monosyllabic language, it may be difficult for a learner to distinguish one word from another. To help the learner, we have 3) 2 types of translations: A.Literal English Translation, that allows you to easily recognize each individual wordB.Proper English translation: that allows you to see how ideas in English are expressed in daily Vietnamese.4) For each story, there is also an audio track available, also spoken out a bit slower than the usual conversational speed, so that you also have the possibility to improve your listening ability and your pronunciation.This book is the result of the collaboration between Phan Ngoc Thi and Ralf Krenning. Thi, who majored in English, has a deep understanding of his own language as well as extensive experience in teaching it to foreigners. Ralf, now a writer after a career in the pharmaceutical industry, has a passion for learning languages.Together, they identified the difficulties for foreigners to master Vietnamese and then proposed this unique solution, contained in this e book, to significantly ease the learning process of Vietnamese, while reading entertaining texts.

Southern Cultures by Harry L. Watson,Larry J. Griffin Pdf

What does "redneck" mean? What's going to happen to the southern accent? What makes black southerners laugh? What is "real" country music? These are the kinds of questions that pop up in this collection of notable essays from Southern Cultures, the journal of the Center for the Study of the American South at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Intentionally plural, Southern Cultures was founded in 1993 to present all sides of the American South, from sorority sisters to Pocahontas, from kudzu to the blues. This volume collects 27 essays from the journal's first fifteen years, bringing together some of the most memorable and engaging essays as well as some of those most requested for use in courses. A stellar cast of contributors discusses themes of identity, pride, traditions, changes, conflicts, and stereotypes. Topics range from black migrants in Chicago to Mexican immigrants in North Carolina, from Tennessee wrestlers to Martin Luther King, from the Civil War to contemporary debates about the Confederate flag. Funny and serious, historical and contemporary, the collection offers something new for every South-watcher, with fresh perspectives on enduring debates about the people and cultures of America's most complex region.

Un-Standardizing Curriculum by Christine Sleeter,Judith Flores Carmona Pdf

In this Second Edition of her bestseller, Christine Sleeter and new co-author Judith Flores Carmona show how educators can learn to teach rich, academically rigorous, multicultural curricula within a standards-based environment. The authors have meticulously updated each chapter to address current changes in education policy and practice. New vignettes of classroom practice have been added to illustrate how today’s teachers navigate the Common Core State Standards. The book’s field-tested conceptual framework elaborates on the following elements of curriculum design: ideology, enduring ideas, democratized assessment, transformative intellectual knowledge, students and their communities, intellectual challenges, and curriculum resources. Un-Standardizing Curriculum shows teachers what they can do to “un-standardize” knowledge in their own classrooms, while working toward high standards of academic achievement. Book Features: Classroom vignettes to help teachers bridge theory with practice in the context of commonly faced pressures and expectations.Guidance for teachers who want to develop their classroom practice, including the possibilities and spaces teachers have within a standardized curriculum.Attention to multiple subject areas and levels of schooling, making the book applicable across a wide range of teacher education programs.A critique of the tensions between school reforms and progressive classroom practice. “This second edition is a game changer for educators interested in powerful curriculum engineering to support new century students” —H. Richard Milner IV, Helen Faison Endowed Chair of Urban Education, University of Pittsburgh “This text breaks new ground with a timely contribution that provides solid, potentially emancipatory grounding for a new, inclusive, research-based vision of curriculum, assessment, schools, and society.” —Angela Valenzuela, author “This is a book that teachers, teacher educators, policymakers, and researchers will continue to return to for guidance and inspiration.” —Dolores Delgado Bernal, University of Utah

A Narrative Inquiry into the Experiences of Vietnamese Children and Mothers in Canada by Thi Thuy Hang Tran Pdf

This book recounts the understanding of three Vietnamese children and their mothers’ experiences as they navigate being newcomers to Canada. It explores the cultural, traditional, familial, intergenerational, personal, social, institutional, political, historical, community, and linguistic narratives shaping Vietnamese children and mothers as they compose their lives. The author employs narrative inquiry as a methodological approach, beginning by positioning herself through her narrative beginnings, delving deep into philosophical and methodological underpinnings. The author lays out the three child–mother pairs’ experiences as they negotiated a new culture in Canada, particularly the spaces of home, schools, and communities. The book brings a holistic and relational way of understanding familial curriculum-making as support for children’s school curriculum-making and for the ways in which Vietnamese families’ sustain their ongoing life making. It also looks at the influence of the homeland’s language, culture, and educational traditions. Through the complex interplay between the children and mothers’ narratives and the writer’s own stories, this book discusses multiperspectival and multidimensional ways of supporting Vietnamese newcomers and other ‘arrivals’ composing their lives in similar landscapes. The book is relevant to educators, researchers, cultural brokers, and policymakers, opening avenues for understanding cultural ethics within the relational ethics of narrative inquiry, as well as familial narratives in relation to institutional and social narratives.
