Paperback. Condition: New. In today's increasingly interconnected, knowledge-based world, language policy in higher education is rapidly becoming a crucial area for all societies aiming to play a part in the global economy. The challenge is double faceted: how can universities retain their crucial role of creating the intellectual elites who are indispensable for the running of national affairs and, at the same time, prepare their best-educated citizens for competition in a global market? To what extent is English really pushing other languages out of the academic environment? Drawing on the experience of several medium-sized language communities, this volume provides the reader with some important insights into how language policies can be successfully implemented. The different sociolinguistic contexts under scrutiny offer an invaluable comparative standpoint to understand what position can - or could - be occupied by each language at the level of higher education.…

Tapa blanda. Condition: New. En una Catalunya cada cop més internacionalitzada, l'ús i l'aprenentatge de les llengües a l'escola és objecte de debat recurrent. Massa sovint, el soroll polític amaga la realitat sobre el terreny, la qual cosa fa que ens plantegem un nombre important d'interrogants: com és el dia a dia lingüístic als centres educatius? Funciona el model lingüístic escolar a Catalunya? Quines estratègies usen els docents per promoure el català? Ha canviat la manera d'ensenyar llengües a secundària? Aquestes i altres preguntes es tracten en aquest volum des d'una perspectiva que sovint té dificultats per fer-se sentir: la dels mateixos docents. Per això, es van entrevistar un seguit de professors i professores de secundària de diversos punts del país, perquè parlessin de llengües i d'educació des de la seva pròpia trajectòria vital. Els entrevistats, persones que fa anys que breguen amb la realitat del dia a dia "des de la trinxera", van compartir amb els autors el capital que acumulen gràcies a la seva experiència de primera mà. Aquestes són les veu que trobareu dins del volum. …
