Language Awareness in the Classroom addresses the central educational question of the impact that explicit language knowledge has on learning and language learning.A substantial Introduction defines the issues and key concepts and relates them to contemporary educational policy and practice in Europe and internationally. The papers are organised into four thematic sections: the extent and nature of language awareness in teacher education; school-based language awareness programmes; tertiary education initiatives and modes of evaluation of language awareness programmes.

Errors in Language Learning and Use is an up-to-date introduction and guide to the study of errors in language, and is also a critical survey of previous work. Error Analysis occupies a central position within Applied Linguistics, and seeks to clarify questions such as `Does correctness matter?', `Is it more important to speak fluently and write imaginatively or to communicate one's message?' Carl James provides a scholarly and well-illustrated theoretical and historical background to the field of Error Analysis. The reader is led from definitions of error and related concepts, to categorization of types of linguistic deviance, discussion of error gravities, the utility of teacher correction and towards writing learner profiles. Throughout, the text is guided by considerable practical experience in language education in a range of classroom contexts worldwide.

Errors in Language Learning and Use: Exploring Error Analysis (Applied Linguistics and Language Study)

Being equipped to confront issues related to racial and ethnic diversity is a crucial skill for Canadians. Completely reorganized and expanded, this new edition of Seeing Ourselves uses a collection of personal comments and essays, written by students from a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds, to examine what it means to participate in the cultural and ethnic "mosaic" that comprises Canada today. Carl James creates a dialogue with students and readers that probes the meaning of ethnicity, race and culture, both in terms of the meanings individuals bring to these concepts and how they are understood in Canadian society as a whole. The varied perspectives, detailed analyses and careful reflections will be invaluable to anyone seeking to understand the meaning and implications of ethnic diversity in Canadian society today. To facilitate classroom discussion, this edition also includes background information and new, up-to-date statistics on the Canadian population - immigration trends, et

"Science Fiction and the Hidden Global Agenda - Omnibus Edition" is the complete Volumes One and Two (2016 Editions) brought together for the first time in one complete work. In the book, alternative knowledge researcher Carl James studies the science fiction genre and its myriad connections to the global power elite. The research exposes all manner of social engineering paradigms, predictive programming, embedded occult and arcane symbolism and themes, secret military and intelligence experiments, cover-ups and conspiracies of silence, and a larger global elite agenda mechanism.Was Aldous Huxley helping to implement a mass social engineering agenda? Was the 1938 War of the Worlds radio broadcast a psychological operation orchestrated by The Rockefeller family and The Tavistock Institute? Did Stanley Kubrick help to fake NASA's Apollo missions? Why was Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry working for a group heavily supported by SRI, the U.S. military, NASA and the CIA? Why did Hollywood director Ridley Scott produce P.R. films for the social engineering organisation "Common Purpose"? Did George Lucas embed subliminal psychic messages in the raw film of Star Wars: A New Hope? Did the Back to the Future film trilogy foreshadow the events of 9/11? Is contemporary science fiction a mass conduit for the principles of "Saturn Worship"?These questions, and many more, are examined in "Science Fiction and the Hidden Global Agenda."
