The review summarizes each part and concludes that the book provides a useful introduction to textual analysis for both native and non-native English speakers, as well as teachers and students.
Synchronic Diachronic Aspect of Lexic Semantic and Functional Features of Sci...YogeshIJTSRD
The article provides general information about the synchronous diachronic aspect of the lexical semantic and functional features of the English scientific pedagogical text. The article shows that diachronic linguistics studies language change, and synchronic linguistics studies language states without their history. At the same time, the impact of the development of science on various areas of education, innovations in various areas of the English language will be discussed.

An Investigation of the Reading Text ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ (Long Live Pakistan)...Bahram Kazemian
This paper is a critical study in Critical Discourse Analysis paradigm of a Textbook prescribed for intermediate students (Second Language Learners) in Government Colleges affiliated to the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Larkana, Sindh, Pakistan. The textbook contains selected texts to improve students reading skills integrated with writing activities. Each of the texts contains questions at the end to be answered. It is observed that the reading tasks are badly designed and there is no mental activity to involve students in the text discourse. The study focuses on critical discourse of the underlying text to inspect whether the text reading involves students in the critical discourse or not; it also attempts to analyze the Reading Text ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ to identify problems showing the gap and unawareness on the part of teachers and students regarding the critical discourse of the text in classroom reading context. It is also suggested that teachers need to bring about a change in their traditional teaching methods in order to tackle the issue. The awareness of critical discourse analysis is recommended on the part of the teachers in order to analyze and understand the real meaning of the text. In result, it may develop the critical approach which is very essential for a reader.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
This presentation provides an introduction to quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis and marker-assisted selection (MAS) in plant breeding. The presentation begins by explaining the type of quantitative traits. The process of QTL analysis, including the use of molecular genetic markers and statistical methods, is discussed. Practical examples demonstrating the power of MAS are provided, such as its use in improving crop traits in plant breeding programs. Overall, this presentation offers a comprehensive overview of these important genomics-based approaches that are transforming modern agriculture.

How to Analyse Texts: A Toolkit for
Students of English introduces novice
linguists, teachers, and advanced
students of English to the process of
examining texts to connect language use
and context. Acknowledging that the
term “text” has different definitions in
linguistics and social sciences, the
authors define the term to embrace
spoken, written, and multimodal forms
of communication. The authors
encourage readers to think of texts “not
as isolated artefacts, but as part of the
social texture of any community” (p. 3).
With this goal in mind, the authors
divide the book into three parts:
Foundations: Researching texts; Drilling
down: how texts are structured; and
Building Up: texts and contexts. Each
part is designed to demonstrate how text
analysis illuminates the connection
between language and context and
ultimately improves our understanding
of language’s role in making meaning.
Part I, “Foundations: Researching
Texts,” lays the groundwork for text
analysis. The authors emphasize that text
analysis does not involve examining
abstract material, but rather texts that
surround us in daily life, such as diaries,
greeting cards, and letters, and reflecting
on how those texts represent language
development. The authors encourage
readers to make text analysis relevant by
developing their own questions about
language then demonstrating how to
answer those questions systematically
through research.
Part II, “Drilling Down: How texts
are structured” examines language as a
semiotic system, a system of signs
designed to convey meaning. It begins
by unpacking the role of signs such as
icons, ideographs and emojis, and
discussing how analysis can help readers
understand the cultural values conveyed
by these signs. In the second section of
Part II, the authors provide a detailed
overview of the sound system of spoken
language. While this section may be
complex for the linguistic novice
because of the sheer number of terms it
introduces, the authors’ use of clear and
concise definitions and examples make
the section informative. The subsequent
sections focus on lexical and semantic
aspects of language and show readers
how language users convey ideas
through language play, including
creative use of morphemes, etymology

and cohesive devices. The last section
focuses on grammar. The authors
demonstrate the role of grammar in
making meaning across multiple genres,
both spoken and written, and provide
concrete examples of how to use textual
analysis in the classroom to provoke
critical examination of texts. Perhaps
most powerful and timely, and
potentially most engaging for the reader,
is the topic of analyzing political
discourse. The authors
show how students can
conduct critical
discourse analysis that
reveals ideological
viewpoints by
pinpointing linguistic
features that “reveal
particular ways of seeing
the world, particular stereotypical belief
systems, and particular political
ideologies” (p. 146).
Part III, “Building up: Texts and
Contexts,” concentrates on how
linguistic analysis can shed light on
language’s role in our world. It begins
by exemplifying the differences between
spoken and written discourse and by
demonstrating how to examine that data
systematically. The authors recommend
transcribing conversation in varying
contexts both face to face and digital
modes, and then comparing this
language to the written discourse of
novels or popular magazines. The
authors suggest specific activities that
help readers uncover how language is
used to construct points of view,
ideology, and gendered discourse.
Perhaps the title, How to analyze
texts: A toolkit for students of English, is
too limiting, as the prospective audience
for this text certainly extends beyond
just students of English. Native and non-
native speakers alike will find the text to
be a worthy introduction to the process
of textual analysis. For the native
speaker, it is a strong tool to support
metalinguistic awareness. For the non-
native speaker, it does this as well, but
also has the added benefit of providing
opportunities for the English learner to
simultaneously learn about and through
language, using higher-order
thinking skills. Furthermore,
teachers of linguistically
diverse students, particularly
in higher education and
upper secondary contexts
will find an abundance of
practical activities to include
in their classroom that will
simultaneously promote robust academic
language use and critical thinking. The
text may also be useful within
professional learning communities, as it
provides educators with an accessible
and supportive introduction to textual
analysis that respects the readers’
knowledge base while promoting
knowledge of language, something that
is recognized as an essential part of
today’s teaching. Teacher educators will
also find use for this text in a TESL
endorsement sequence focusing on
educational linguistics. Future teachers
who are native and non-native speakers
alike will be supported in understanding
how language makes meaning in varying
contexts and will have an opportunity to
reinterpret some of these activities for
varying contexts. Overall, this text is a
useful tool for anyone who wants to
develop a deeper understanding of how
language constructs our world.
“Native and non-native
speakers alike will find
the text to be a worthy
introduction to the
process of textual
analysis.”!
