Teaching and Learning Forum 98 [ Contents The use of learner biography as a means of helping students to engage with a new field of enquiry Carol Hogan Language Education, Bunbury Campus Edith Cowan University I teach in Language Education at a small regional campus of a much larger metropolitan university. Every year I am struck by the diversity of background and life experiences of the students who enter our program with the intention (however vague) of joining the teaching profession. When I give a lecture on language acquisition, it must be received very differently by a forty-year-old mother of four, an eighteen-year-old who is himself just emerging from the grunting phase of language development, and a young woman whose parents are profoundly hearing impaired. There are students who are in the course because of beloved and inspiring teachers; others who still nurse resentments from the damage done to them by their schooling; many are neutral; a few are on a mission of one kind or another. Diversity of this kind can be viewed in a number of ways. If we are locked into a rigid, content-based curriculum it can be simply an irrelevance: the task of the students is to learn the content and they will do so according to their individual capacities. If we care about teaching well, diversity can even be a nuisance: how are we to design a course that will support the strugglers, challenge advanced students and satisfy everyone in between? Both of these paths seem unproductive, leading ultimately to student alienation and teacher frustration. But if we begin to view diversity as a positive resource for teaching and learning (Bennett, 1994) some interesting new possibilities emerge for the ways we might introduce, teach and assess in our discipline areas.

Carnegie Homepage Mail this page Print this page Low-bandwidth page ... Employment Opportunities Biography Andrew Carnegie was born in Dunfermline, Scotland, on November 25, 1835. The son of a weaver, he came with his family to the United States in 1848 and settled in Allegheny, Pennsylvania. At age thirteen, Carnegie went to work as a bobbin boy in a cotton mill. He then moved rapidly through a succession of jobs with Western Union and the Pennsylvania Railroad. In 1865, he resigned to establish his own business enterprises and eventually organized the Carnegie Steel Company, which launched the steel industry in Pittsburgh. At age sixty-five, he sold the company to J. P. Morgan for $480 million and devoted the rest of his life to his philanthropic activities and writing, including his autobiography. Many persons of wealth have contributed to charity, but Carnegie was perhaps the first to state publicly that the rich have a moral obligation to give away their fortunes. In 1889 he wrote The Gospel of Wealth , in which he asserted that all personal wealth beyond that required to supply the needs of one's family should be regarded as a trust fund to be administered for the benefit of the community.
