Frisian as an Endangered Language: An Overview

2019

The main goal of the paper is to answer the questions whether Frisian can be referred to as an endangered language and if it managed to survive the constant influence of the surrounding larger cultures and languages. The first point to be analyzed is the geographic distribution of Frisian. The second issue to be considered is the historical and present cultural and social status of the Frisian language. The third matter to be analysed is the lexical variety of Frisian language and its complexity, which made its survival possible. The article takes the diachronic perspective and expounds upon all the mentioned factors and their role in the preservation of Frisian until today. The paper prese…

Process support in MetaCASE: implementing the conceptual basis for enactable process models in MetaEdit+

2002

This study concerns the support of information system analysis and design process in a metaCASE environment. We see a process as highly, evolutionary and unstructural in nature, thus requiring the tailorability of user process models and their conceptual basis, process modelling language (PML). In addition to the flexibility needed for guiding various system developers, the CASE environment needs to be enacted using strictly defined environment actions. A distinction between user and environment processes is made, hence distinguishing also their conceptual basis and modelling requirements. The study depicts the realisation of the basic concepts and tools required in modelling a PML and the …

Metamodel Specialization for DSL Tool Building

2016

Most of domain-specific tool building and especially diagram editor building nowadays involves some usage of metamodels. However normally the metamodel alone is not sufficient to define an editor. Frequently the metamodel just defines the abstract syntax of the domain, mappings or transformations are required to define the editor. Another approach [8] is based on a fixed type metamodel, there an editor definition consists of an instance of this metamodel to be executed by an engine. However there typically a number of functionality extensions in a transformation language is required. The paper offers a new approach based on metamodel specialization. First the metamodel specialization based …

FLIPPING THE ESL CLASSROOM.STRATEGIES FOR COMMUNICATION AND INCLUSION

2015

One of the most interesting and recent teaching approach that is attracting insistently both academic and teaching environments, is the Flipped Classroom, or Inverted Classroom. The class, where there is a turning over of the activities with the purpose of making both lessons and individual study more interesting and productive is “flipped”. This approach is fundamentally based on three issues: 1) a conscious use of technologies for learning/teaching purposes, 2) a revision of learning times, 3) the importance of the educational relationship. The flipped is also an answer to the teacher's aim to solve problems related to the learning process, that means, to create the best condition through…

Seeking Understanding of Foreign Language Teachers’ Shifting Emotions in Relation to Pupils

2016

Teaching is recognised as an emotional practice. Studies have highlighted the importance of teachers’ emotional literacy in the development of pupils’ emotional skills, the central position of emotions in teachers’ ways of knowing, and in their professional development. This longitudinal study draws on a dialogic understanding of emotion to present findings from qualitative interviews with teachers. This study aims to provide further understanding in this area by offering a perspective into 7 foreign language teachers’ emotions in relation to their pupils during their first decade in the profession. The most important finding was that negative emotions decreased while the positive emotions …

La censura nella Francia settecentesca e la figura del colporteur tra realtà e finzione

2015

La censura assume un’importanza fondamentale nella Francia settecentesca se si considera il vistoso aumento dei censori che passa da quarantuno all’inizio del secolo a settantotto alla vigilia della Rivoluzione. Cercando di raggirare i divieti imposti dalla censura, i colporteur ossia i venditori francesi ambulanti di libri eludano la sorveglianza nascondendo sotto il loro mantello sia scritti libertini che libelli politici, vale a dire i libri più amati e contestati dell’epoca, per poi venderli ai clienti piùabbienti. Censorship is of fundamental importance in eighteenth-century France, a fact corroborated by the increase in the number of censors throughout the century: from forty-one in t…

The Intersection of $3$-Maximal Submonids

2020

Very little is known about the structure of the intersection of two $k$-generated monoids of words, even for $k=3$. Here we investigate the case of $k$-maximal monoids, that is, monoids whose basis of cardinality $k$ cannot be non-trivially decomposed into at most $k$ words. We characterize the intersection in the case of two $3$-maximal monoids.
