Working with non-native
English speakers
by Gail Shuck and Debbie Paxton
The ever-increasing multilingual student population at Boise State, as at most colleges across the nation, is creating a wonderfully diverse atmosphere on campus. Alongside the virtues of a diverse campus, however, come some unique learning issues for these students and pedagogical issues for faculty. The national organization of college writing instructors, the Conference on College Composition and Communication, has addressed these issues in a position statement urging college personnel to "recognize the regular presence of second-language learners . . . , to understand their characteristics, and develop instructional and administrative practices that are sensitive to their linguistic and cultural needs." (See the full text of the CCCC position statement As a means of supporting and integrating non-native English speaking students into academic life, Boise State currently offers three programs:

List of academic disciplines
This is a list of academic disciplines (and academic fields ). An academic discipline is a branch of knowledge which is formally taught , either at the university , or via some other such method. Functionally, disciplines are usually defined and recognised by the academic journals in which research is published, and the learned societies to which their practitioners belong. Each discipline usually has several sub-disciplines or branches and distinguishing lines are often both arbitrary and ambiguous. Historically (in medieval Europe) there where only four faculties in a university: Theology Medicine Jurisprudence and Arts , with the last one having a somewhat lower status than the other three. In modern times, this system differentiated and changed considerably. A "*" denotes a field whose academic status is debated.

Categorial grammar
Categorial grammar is a term used for a family of formalisms in natural language syntax motivated by the principle of compositionality and organized according to the view that syntactic constituents should generally combine as functions or according to a function-argument relationship.
Contents
Basics of categorial grammar
A categorial grammar shares some features with the simply-typed lambda calculus . Whereas the lambda calculus has only one function type A → B , a categorial grammar typically has more. For example, a simple categorial grammar for English might have two function types A/B and , depending on whether the function takes its argument from the left or the right. Such a grammar would have only two rules: left and right function application. Such a grammar might have three basic categories ( N NP , and S ), putting

Have you been hit by the MSBlast/LovSan/SoBig/Dumaru worm or other viruses?
Here are some tips on how to fix it.
English Schools
There are many English schools worldwide. On this page, you'll find links to the websites for many of these schools. Most of these should be schools whose main focus is the teaching of English, but there are also links to English programs in universities and colleges, as well as private homestay and tutoring.
Sometimes, these schools will have job announcements on their web pages, so if you're looking for a teaching job, there's a slight chance that viewing these pages may give you some leads. In general, though, these sites are probably the most useful for students looking for a place to learn or study English. As always (I know I say this on so many pages, but I think its important), if you are looking for a teaching job, make sure to research the school first. If possible, talk to other teachers who have worked there in the past to find out what the conditions are like, and never send money to a school or recruitment agency without doing a lot of homework first.
If you see a link on this page that is broken, fraudulent, or suspicious, please

Writing Wrongs
Problem starts at home and in class
By JONDI GUMZ
Sentinel staff writer Every week, the average American child plunks down in front of the television for about 20 hours. That same child spends only three hours a week writing. In Santa Cruz County, evidence of a writing problem is clear and growing. As the new school year approaches, parents, teachers and administrators are wondering how to improve the writing skills of county children. On top of that, a number of ineffective teaching practices at local schools factor into the equation. At elementary schools, the trend nationwide has been to grade student work more for content than for spelling and grammar. Hence, some students never master these basic skills. As one Harbor High School sophomore said: "We don’t actually do that much writing in English. I actually did more writing in health class." Proof is in the classroom
When high school students are not used to writing, they write sentences like this: "The character’s emotions are best described on lines 54-65."

Quotes
"Whenever educators are told, as they periodically are, to deal with the apparent mediocrity in schools, an abundance of programs and spin offs emerge. State legislatures and school districts put time and money into new programs and technologies, only to find that test scores are still unsatisfactory. The long history of reform of public education in this country is, simply stated, a history built on discrimination and quick-fix choices." ~ Robert C. Morris "The market for self-teaching and for supplemental materials for whatever courses you may be taking will expand. Books that teach test-taking skills and study strategy that kind of thing is going to be very, very big." ~ Gilson "The biggest story right now in this area by far is the emergence of high-stakes testing at the state level." ~ Tom Russell "...While many parents are uncomfortable with the idea of test preparation for young students, they do recognize that it would be a mistake not to prepare their child for these high-stakes tests." ~ Maureen McMahon
"Although we have a critical teacher shortage, the nation's 1,300 schools of education prepare more than enough teachers each year. Out public schools leak talent like a sieve: more than 30 percent of all teachers, and up to 50 percent of teachers in large urban districts leave their jobs within five years." ~ Vartan Gregorian

Dr. Liu has gathered here the most useful humanities web sites and organized them by academic discipline, so they're easy to browse. On each discipline page there are further categories. For example, on the Architecture page there are categories for architects, design, architectural historical preservation, museums and libraries, course syllabi, journals, departments and programs, listservs and newsgroups, and a few more.

The Current State of Composition Scholar/Teachers:
Is Rhetoric Gone or Just Hiding Out? Institutional Practices In 1999 Joe Harris sent me page proofs for my CCC As I write this piece, I am once again wondering about the absence of rhetoric in composition studies but feeling, perhaps, a little more uncertain about the issue. Second, I examined the recent scholarly journals and found a continued commitment to the development of rhetorical knowledge. For example, the Sept. 2001 CCC CCC JAC Rhetoric Review Writing So, given this research, what have I deduced about the state of rhetoric within composition studies? Rhetoric/Composition In the beginning was the word and the word was rhetoric. Corbett, Kinneavy, Horner and Lauer said, ‘Let rhetoric spread within English departments throughout the land . . . as a productive theoretical foundation for teaching first-year composition.’ They separated process from product. And, they said, rhetoric was good. Thus began the field of rhetoric and composition studies.
Cynthia Haynes
Rhetoric Definitions And finally, Deduction #5: At first glance, arguing about the absence of rhetoric in the phrase composition studies may seem like an exercise in nominalism. But it is not. For as Plato has taught us, how we define our terms matters. Cornel West reminds us of this fact in his book

Diversity and Language: ESL Students in the University Classroom
Anne Bliss, Ph.D.
University Writing Program and ESL Coordinator
University of Colorado at Boulder
Stereotyping ESL students is just as damaging as stereotyping "minorities," and lumping all ESL students as "foreign students" ignores important differences in background, culture, and language. The Malaysian woman studying chemistry and covering her head to show her devotion to Islam may be very different from the Kuwaiti woman who appears much the same, with a scarf covering her head. The immigrant student may have been in the US for many years or may have arrived recently, and in either case may be making a desperate attempt to acculturate or to cling to the home culture and language. Furthermore, an ESL student may be a member of a family that has resided in the US for many generations but has elected to speak a language other than English as the home language or "mother tongue." And, of course, a student who struggles with English is not necessarily a student who "is stupid," "can't hear," or "doesn't understand." When we look at international ESL students on campus, we should realize that we are often viewing the "cream of the crop"those very students who, in their home countries, competed for and won sponsorship to study in an American university. These students were judged by the same admission standards as native English speakers, except that the international ESL students also had to pass the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). The TOEFL is hard; native English speaking students often have great difficulty with the vocabulary, reading, and analysis sections of the test. These international students or their sponsors are paying a premium for their education; not only do they pay for out of state tuition, room and board, books, and fees, but they may have very high airfare costs and opportunity costs that may go unrecognized by the university. And in most cases they are not allowed to take jobs while they are in this country.
