Hello everyone, 

I am also very interested. I am keen to participate in research regarding:
- theoretical and methodological framework coordinating NC, teacher training and assessment
- grammar content knowledge in teacher training
- pedagogical content knowledge in teacher training

Regards,
Sara

Hello everyone..
·         The original post from edling (16
Feb from Francis) caught my interest.  Optimising linguistic knowledge /dissemination
(= not just preaching to the converted at conference, in journals, & so
on..) has always had my vote but particularly for teacher training domains.  A
place to start is language learning more generally, because since Latin went
off-syllabus for mainstream secondary education, many native English ( USA & UK & elsewhere) users are not
taught ‘grammar’ even semi-formally.  But those teachers who have
at any stage learnt a second or third language have a conscious and developing
intuitive awareness of grammatical categories at least.  So we need to be less
Anglo-philic in terms of what we mean also by ‘syntax’.  French and
German secondary education still teaches different levels of ‘philology’. 
We can learn nothing unless we have control over our language, or the language
of our schooling.  So we begin with teacher training syllabuses,
internationally, I would suggest.  I am a keen participant in any project,
Alex.  My postgrad Masters and 25 year career has been in Applied Linguistics,
at the tertiary level but very broad interests….
 
Best wishes to all on this project,
Ann

Hi all,
 
I'd love to be involved with this. One implication of this subject, as the
website states, is that it requires a more grounded knowledge of syntax on the
part of the teachers. I'm not suggesting they don't have this knowledge of
course, but that it might represent knowledge not previously required for
younger students. However, it is needed, as there are of course nouns/verbs
which are more prototypical than others and for whom traditional definitions
don't always fit. I'm happy to work on a collaborative project in any way I
can, as educational linguistics is an area I'm involved with.
 
Best,
 
Alex

That's a super idea,
Francis, and surely the sort of project to which a wiki is best suited, i.e.,
coming up with a collective, received articulation of how the phenomenon we're
all interested in should actually be defined.

Subject: [Edling] Linguistics in
Education
 
I recently came across a Wikipedia entry
for 'linguistics in education':
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistics_in_Education
 
I wonder if it would be worthwhile to put
the collective wisdom of the Edling  list to developing it or, perhaps,
creating a new entry for 'educational linguistics'.
 
Francis
