title: ELF and linguistic accessibility in EU migration laws. A Critical Discourse Analysis on text reformulations

description: The present study examines a corpus of legal texts from the EU regarding Immigration and Political Asylum, that refer to the administrative practices and the procedures for claiming asylum, which involve immigrants and asylum seekers between the European Member States. At the core of the study, there is the awareness that these specialized text-types are mainly built on pragmatic strategies which mainly reflect Western routines. Such an issue is thus thought to be the main cause of misunderstandings between the EU and the mediators and the migrants, especially in terms of the ELF dynamics that are involved in the legal processes of discourse interpretation. Hence, the need to activate processes of hybridization in the form here of written reformulations, aimed at making the texts more accessible (Widdowson 1979) to the empirical receivers of the documents. As for the methodology, a Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough 1995) is applied in order to point out the possible incongruities of the original statements, and thus to propose new reformulations.

title: Towards a corpus pragmatics of ELF through semi-automated annotation systems

description: The present paper illustrates an undergoing doctoral research project (Centonze, forthcoming) aimed at introducing a novel approach to the description of spoken discourse in ELF in migration settings which combines corpus linguistics, corpus pragmatics (Aijmer and Rühlemann 2015) – a relatively new research area in the field of language and discourse studies – with the most recent techniques of quantitative/qualitative analysis and corpus annotation by means of semi-automated software tools. More specifically, the project focuses on the pragmatic annotation of speech acts from an ELF perspective and on the analysis of speech acts in their frequencies and collocations in a study corpus by means of DART (the Dialogue Annotation Research Tool v. 1.1., Weisser 2015), i.e. a research tool which, among other things, includes the functions of both POS (Part-Of-Speech) tagging and pragmatic annotation of spoken discourse. The corpus which is being taken into consideration is an under-construction corpus which will be referred to as the ELF MiDo Corpus (English as a Lingua Franca in MIgration DOmains corpus) and consists of over 50,000 words of conversation between asylum seekers and intercultural mediators in symmetrical contexts of interaction. All the different corpus interviews and interactions are transcribed and annotated according to a basic .XML mark-up scheme which proved to be a necessary condition for the whole corpus to be properly scanned for analysis through the DART interface. The aim of the present research study is to assess – by illustrating two case studies taken from the corpus – the use of DART for the pragmatic description of discourse in ELF and to verify the extent to which (semi-)automated software tools like this can effectively capture pragmatic change in interactional settings.

title: A phonopragmatic analysis of ELF spoken interactions

description: ELF cross-cultural interactions occurring in specialized migration settings are often characterized by 'gatekeeping' asymmetries between the participants involved, challenging successful communication. The 'phonopragmatic' approach is here applied to the analysis of naturally occurring dialogues among ELF users with the aim of investigating how ELF speakers engaged in intercultural encounters differently appropriate the English language, not only according to their own native linguacultural and paralinguistic 'schemata', but also to specific pragmalinguistic purposes and processes. The phonopragmatic analysis is applied to a number of case studies – illustrating unequal encounters between asylum-seekers, language mediators and legal advisors, taking place at an important centre for legal counselling and assistance to refugees and performed through ELF and Italian Lingua-Franca – with the ultimate objective of exploring the occurring prosodic and auditory processes activated in such cross-cultural dynamics. The investigation of prosodic strategies employed for a pragmatic purpose by ELF speakers from different L1 backgrounds is focused on (i) ELF redefinition of existing native prosodic and acoustic correlates (in terms of stress, intonation, speech rate, and disfluency) in the pragmalinguistic use of an ELF variation; (ii) resulting L1 phonological transfers affecting the conversational composition and progress; (iii) the cross-cultural mediation of meaning, experience and intentionality in terms of phonopragmatic strategies and resulting lexical, syntactical, and stylistic performance; and (iv) the role played by prosody and paralinguistics in the negotiation of speakers' attitudes, emotions, and socio-cultural 'schemata' in spoken specialized discourse related to medical and legal integration, mediated migration narratives, socio-cultural divergences, and cross-cultural representations of traumatic experience.

title: Immunologically speaking: Oral examinations, ELF and EMI

description: "English-medium instruction" (EMI) is the name given to the use of the English language in universities to teach academic subjects in countries where the majority of the population does not have English as a first language (Dearden 2014). What this definition fails to mention is that interaction during EMI courses is almost entirely through the medium of English as a lingua franca (ELF). This article focuses on the challenges facing lecturers and examiners working on English-taught programmes (ETPs) in ELF and the role of language experts in supporting them. As a basis for discussion, the article uses data from a set of immunology oral examinations carried out during an undergraduate degree programme in Medicine being taught through EMI. Qualitative analysis of the data shows that this particular oral examination involves students and examiners co-constructing highly specific, chronological narratives of immunological sequences. It is argued that, far from being an exclusively linguistic matter, this kind of narrative co-construction involves acquiring a unique discursive skill set and that preparing students for the examination needs to involve increasing students' awareness and practice of the construction process. Discussion focuses on how far qualitative results of this kind of local examination data are generalisable to other EMI contexts and whether there are recommendations for language experts and policymakers in understanding and improving the quality of EMI lecturing and assessment through in other languacultures. The article will also examine how far an ELF orientation to pedagogy can assist EMI lecturers, examiners and students in their decision-making regarding materials, methods and their own English usage.

title: ELF in the English classroom. Great ideas and burning open questions

description: Research in the field of English as a lingua franca (ELF) has been inherently connected to studies in the broad areas of Applied Linguistics and English language teaching (ELT) ever since the unresolved academic controversy on the nature of English as a global language started, in the early eighties. So far, several research projects have been carried out to enhance ELF-informed pedagogy and incorporate the use of ELF into the English syllabus through innovative teaching/learning practices (Author 2013; Bowles and Cogo 2015; Gagliardi and Maley 2010; Vettorel 2015). However, even though a shift in perspective has been advocated in order to reconceptualise the traditional approach to ELT (Lopriore 2010), this transition poses challenging open questions for discussion, including: Should any native-speaker language model be provided in language education? How are ?errors' going to be distinguished from creative forms of ELF? How are teachers supposed to behave when deviations from the adopted language model take place? How should teachers assess the use of ELF in the English classroom? The aim of this paper is to focus on these queries and stimulate a discussion to provide tentative answers.

title: Voicing beliefs and dilemmas from WE- and ELF-aware reflective teacher education contexts

description: The social fragmentation processes due to the recent tidal migration flows, together with the diffusion of technologies and social networks, have created new sociolinguistic environments where languages are undergoing a transformative process. As a result of increasing global mobility, the sociolinguistic reality of English, and its different realisations have become much more complex and controversial than those of other languages in the world. Issues of identity, standards, proficiency levels, intercultural communication and language relevance for English language learners and teachers, demand for a paradigmatic orientation and a reconsideration of the English curriculum, teacher education, research and classroom practice. Language teacher education is a field where, according to local contexts and to pedagogical traditions, different theoretical frameworks are being used, specific approaches adopted, course components differently combined, and teachers' and trainers' espoused theories and beliefs about English are often challenged. The purpose of this presentation is to describe and discuss a World English (WE) and English as a Lingua Franca (ELF)-aware approach embedded in English language teacher education courses in Italy. The adoption of such an approach elicited teachers' awareness of changes occurring in the current status of English and induced a reflective perspective on the implications of teaching it within a moveable scenario where English teaching traditions are often challenged. The relevance of this approach will be discussed and teachers' voices from three teacher education courses will be reported as representative of emerging dilemmas and a shift in perspective.

title: The plurality of English and ELF in teacher education. Raising awareness of the 'feasibility' of a WE- and ELF-aware approach in classroom practices

description: The plurality into which English has developed, and its extended lingua franca role, have significant implications for ELT. Besides being taught as a foreign / second language, English increasingly constitutes a consistent presence in the 'outside-school' world, and encounters with (linguistic) otherness can be experienced daily, from the multicultural and multilingual school environments to mobility and digital communication. Raising awareness of the multifaceted sociolinguistic realities of Englishes and ELF in teacher education constitutes a first and fundamental step towards a more 'inclusive' and 'realistic' approach in ELT. If language educators are familiarised with the complex reality of English, and critical reflection on its implications in ELT is actively promoted in teacher education, teachers can not only realize the 'feasibility' of a WE- and ELF-aware approach in classroom practices, but also its 'suitability' to prepare learners to communicate through English in its current plural and lingua franca dimensions. An example comes from the pre-service TFA (Tirocinio Formativo Attivo) and PAS (Percorso Abilitante Speciale) teacher education courses held at the University of Verona, where part of the English Language Module focused on issues related to WE, ELF and their pedagogical implications. The Module aimed at fostering awareness of WE- and ELF-related issues, as well as critical reflection on beliefs deriving from traditional Anglocentric approaches. This, together with the WE- and ELF-aware material evaluation and the design of activities and lesson plans, that were also part of the Module, can be seen as a starting point to encourage and support a WE- and ELF-aware pedagogic perspective, one that sees communicative 'capability' (Widdowson 2003, 2012, 2015; Seidlhofer 2011, 2015) as an important aim to prepare learners to become effective and competent ELF users in today's world.

title: Anodontites Spp. Shells Oxygen And Carbon Isotopes

description: Stable isotopic ratios (δ<sup>18</sup>O<em><sub>S</sub></em> and δ<sup>13</sup>C<em><sub>S</sub></em>) of carbonate powder samples from 4 bivalves shells: 2 <em>Anodontites elongatus</em> (Ae-1 & Ae-2) from a peruvian site (near Iquitos, 3°44'32.2''S; 73°13'31.2''W) and 2 <em>Anotontites trapesialis</em> (At-1 & At-2) from a brazilian site (Ilha Paciência, 3°19'21.0''S; 60°16'36.0''W).

Samples were drilled in the hinge using a computer-monitored microdrilling equipment (New Wave<sup>®</sup> Micromill). The hinge was sampled continuously from internal to external part of the shell taking care to maintain each sampling groove parallel to the growth lines. Distance between successive grooves was determined to have both enough carbonate powder for stable isotope analysis and an assumed infra-seasonal resolution considering that growth lines were annual due to the clear bimodal Amazonian environmental variability (dry/wet seasons). Successive grooves were spaced about 60 µm to sample 41± 26 µg of carbonate powder. On average, 9 and 6 sampling grooves were done per growth increment for <em>A. trapesialis</em> and <em>A. elongatus</em>, respectively.

δ<sup>18</sup>O<em><sub>S</sub></em> and δ<sup>13</sup>C<em><sub>S</sub></em> data are given along the distance (d in mm) in the hinges from the oldest to the younger part of the shells (growth direction).

title: Fecal pellet flux summary from samples collected during CCE LTER process cruises in the California Current system, 2007 – present.

description: The collection and enumeration of sinking fecal pellets on CCE LTER Process cruises has been led by Mike Stukel since 2007.  Sinking particles are collected in VERTEX-style particle interceptor traps (PIT) with an 8:1 aspect ratio, 70-mm diameter, and a baffle on top comprised of 13 smaller beveled tubes with a similar 8:1 aspect ratio.  Tubes are deployed with a formalin-brine for a duration of 2-5 days.  After recovery, samples are gently split on a Folsom splitter and typically 3/8 to 1/2 of two separate tubes are utilized for fecal pellet enumeration.  After the cruise, samples for fecal pellet enumeration are placed in a settling chamber to allow fecal pellets to settle out.  Overlying water is then strained through a 60-um filter to collect any pellets that may have remained in the water.  Pellets were then placed on a gridded Petri dish and analyzed using a Zeiss Discovery stereomicroscope.  Pellets were separated from other particles and photographed with a dedicated camera.  Image processing was then conducted using either Image J or Image Pro to extract area and maximum feret length for each fecal pellet.  Pellets were classified by shape and shape-appropriate equations were used to determine the volume of each fecal pellet.  Volume was converted to mass using the equations in Stukel et al. (2013).  Fecal pellet mass flux is the sum of the mass of all fecal pellets for a sample multiplied by a conversion factor that takes into account the proportion of the gridded petri dish that was enumerated, the fraction of the PIT tube that was used for fecal pellet enumeration, the cross-sectional area of the PIT tube, and the deployment duration.  Standard error of the mean is determined from the two samples enumerated for each sediment trap deployment.  For more details please see Stukel et al. (2013) or Morrow et al. (submitted).
