Amazingly, some of the most creative and interesting African music acts springing onto the scene are not based in Africa anymore. For years, Afropop Worldwide has spotlighted the work of Africans making bands in the United States, and talented American musicians creating African music. The crop keeps getting better. This music-rich edition samples the techno roots fusion of Burkina Electric, the Kenyan benga meets rock ânâ roll fusion of Extra Golden, desert blues innovations from Markus...

The major objective of this research project was to identify and characterize promoter/enhancer elements that can be used to specifically target the expression of therapeutic genes to hypoxic regions within prostatic tumors in vivo. We have characterized sequences present within the human TNF-alpha promoter that are responsible for both constitutive activity and induction by hypoxia. We have produced a mutated version of this promoter that exhibits substantially reduced constitutive activity in...

This article describes a pilot project that examined the use of a two-way text messenger for deaf and hard of hearing teens and their parents. The study took place at two large inner-city public high schools and in grade 8 of their feeder school. The vast majority of the students in the study had severe to profound congenital hearing loss and were being educated in congregated settings by teachers who were specially trained to teach this population. Before using the equipment, each participant...

The link between increased education for women and decreased fertility has become a central part of development discourse. To explore this relationship, a three-and-a-half-month research project examined the qualitative aspects of why and how education for girls could lead to a change in fertility behavior. Specifically, the report here offers a more rigorous understanding of the role that education plays within the community. Data were collected at the local level, in both rural and urban...

This study tested a refined version of the discourse domain hypothesis, which defines the discourse domain as a topic area in which second language learners demonstrate extensive, current, and important knowledge, including both cognitive and affective dimensions. The study tested the results of previous studies, which showed that learners show enhanced performance on discourse domain topics. Subjects were eight learners of English as a Second Language (ESL) in an intensive college-level ESL...

Classroom foreign language teachers using technology in task-based language teaching (TBLT) may experience pedagogical regression during technological development (Fullan, 2001), and fail to transform pedagogy because tools like interactive whiteboards (IWBs) support traditional as well as newer approaches (Avvisati et al., 2013). IWB-supported teacher education in TBLT must therefore develop new technological know-how and encourage pedagogy often also experienced as innovative. This study used...

Although the interactive whiteboard (IWB) is becoming increasingly prevalent in classrooms throughout the more efficient parts of the world and research has shown how this tool can increase the effectiveness of teaching and even transform pedagogy (Kennewell & Beauchamp, 2007), research literature overviews (Higgins, Beauchamp, & Miller, 2007; Koenraad, 2008) also identify obstacles to the realisation of added value and to the uptake of this technology by teachers in some educational...

The project's methods included initial desk research of policy documents, research...

A study attempts to refine the discourse domain hypothesis of second language learning, which holds that a second language is acquired with reference to speaker-specific topic areas rather than as a general, context-independent competence, by examining the discourse domains developed by one non-native speaker of English in conversations with two native interlocutors. All subjects were male graduate students in the United States. The natives interviewed the non-native speaker in turn,...

Recent emphasis on target language interaction in task-based, technologymediated language classrooms makes the interactive whiteboard (IWB) an attractive tool: it constitutes a "digital hub" particularly suited to younger learners who require greater visual support and active learning. However, recent research in UK and French primary classes suggests that teachers do not always use the IWB to promote interactivity and may provide only limited opportunities for synergistic...

Telecollaborative research often focuses on intercultural objectives rather than language learning, and highlights limitations due to technical difficulties and poor task design. This study redresses the balance by focusing on language and learner interaction in an exchange involving the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners of 35 secondary school student-teachers in two European countries. The teachers were enrolled in courses on technology for language education, and collaborated in a...

This course is a Shona basic-level language program developed by the Foreign Service Institute (FSI). The course has been used for over thirty years by United States government diplomats and officers for learning the Shona language. Other popular language programs (including Rosetta Stone and Pimsleur) rely heavily on the methods pioneered in this exclusive course. The course contains over 8 hours of educational audio with Student text (download-able). The program is designed to help students...

Interview with Ian Smith about Rhodesia Taped on March 15, 1974. This was only the second appearance of Mr. Smith on television. Mr. Buckley begins by reminding us that in 1965 Rhodesia had requested independence of Great Britain, and Britain had said no, on the grounds that Mr. Smith's government represented only 5 per cent of the population. Whereupon at 11:15 A.M. on November 11, 1965, the government issued a Unilateral Declaration of Independence, the UDI, the second such declaration by a...
