I don't know if anyone<BR>> besides Özge is working on medical discourse, but if you are interested, you<BR>> can sign up for online access at:<BR>> <BR>> http://www.degruyter.com/rs/384_6971_ENU_h.htm<BR>> <BR>> Welcome to those who have just joined us! We've been pretty quiet lately;<BR>> those of us who are finishing up a semester have been busy. :) I had<BR>> proposed cutting back our reading schedule to 1 article per month rather<BR>> than 2, and everyone who responded agreed with that, so let's put that in<BR>> practice. Our current reading for April is:<BR>> <BR>> Teo, P. (2000). Racism in the News: A Critical Discourse Analysis of News<BR>> Reporting in 2 Australian Newspapers. Discourse & Society, 11(1), 7-49.<BR>> <BR>> The next reading, which would be for May, is:<BR>> <BR>> Halmari, H., & Ostman, J. O. (2001). The Soft-Spoken, Angelic Pickax Killer:<BR>> The Notion of Discourse Pattern in Controversial News Reporting. Journal of<BR>> Pragmatics, 33(6), 805-823.<BR>> <BR>> I've updated our website to reflect these changes:<BR>> http://people.bu.edu/polyglot/cda.html<BR>> <BR>> Does anyone have suggestions for a mechanism for choosing and scheduling<BR>> articles?<BR>> -A few have been suggested by list members over the past couple of months; I<BR>> could add articles to the schedule in the order that they were suggested.<BR>> -Another possibility would be to have a couple weeks for planning and<BR>> voting; everyone could post suggestions for articles that they would like to<BR>> discuss, and then we could vote on which ones were of greatest interest to<BR>> the whole group.<BR>> -A third possibility: each of us who felt inclined to "lead" a discussion<BR>> could select an article related to their particular area of interest - so we<BR>> might have one month on political discourse, another on medical discourse,<BR>> the next on classroom discourse, etc.<BR>> <BR>> Thoughts?<BR>> <BR>> Linnea<BR><BR></P><br><br><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td bgcolor="#000000"><img src="http://img.web.de/p.gif" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" /></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:verdana; font-size:12px; line-height:17px;">Verschicken Sie romantische, coole und witzige Bilder per SMS! <br>Jetzt bei WEB.DE FreeMail: <A HREF="http://f.web.de/?mc=021193"><B>http://f.web.de/?mc=021193</B></A> </td></tr></table></body></html>
