Using the Schoolwide Enrichment Model With Technology
by Joseph Renzulli Brian Housand Angela HousandUsing the Schoolwide Enrichment Model With Technology is an extension of a talent development model implemented in more than 2,500 schools across the U.S. and widely used internationally.

Usos políticos de la historia: Lenguaje de clases y revisionismo histórico
by José Carlos ChiaramonteEnsayos sobre el revisionismo histórico, sus orígenes y sus polémicas.El libro incluye textos de investigación, textos periodísticos dedivulgación científica y dos artículos inéditos y sustanciales en tornoa los conceptos de clase social y lucha de clases. «Sabemos desde hace mucho que la historia es, entre otras cosas, uncementerio de ideas falsas. Solo que siempre resulta oportuno establecersi se llegó a ellas intencionalmente o no. A fines del siglo XIX, porejemplo, el historiador alemán Heinrich von Treitschke se burlaba de la"objetividad anémica" para afirmar que la verdad histórica "es aquellaque sirve a la nación". Como resulta evidente, desde esta perspectivacuenta más la utilidad política que la validez científica de losenunciados. Comparto la saludable reacción de Chiaramonte contra estetipo de pensamiento, que recorre buena parte del segundo revisionismo yque hoy se manifiesta en textos de divulgación de amplia venta, cuyasinterpretaciones proyectan deliberadamente sus particulares lecturas delpresente sobre el pasado y no a la inversa».

Utility and Application of Language Corpora
by Niladri Sekhar Dash L. RamamoorthyThis book discusses some of the basic issues relating to corpus generation and the methods normally used to generate a corpus. Since corpus-related research goes beyond corpus generation, the book also addresses other major topics connected with the use and application of language corpora, namely, corpus readiness in the context of corpus sanitation and pre-editing of corpus texts; the application of statistical methods; and various text processing techniques. Importantly, it explores how corpora can be used as a primary or secondary resource in English language teaching, in creating dictionaries, in word sense disambiguation, in various language technologies, and in other branches of linguistics. Lastly, the book sheds light on the status quo of corpus generation in Indian languages and identifies current and future needs.Discussing various technical issues in the field in a lucid manner, providing extensive new diagrams and charts for easy comprehension, and using simplified English, the book is an ideal resource for non-native English readers. Written by academics with many years of experience teaching and researching corpus linguistics, its focus on Indian languages and on English corpora makes it applicable to graduate and postgraduate students of applied linguistics, computational linguistics and language processing in South Asia and across countries where English is spoken as a first or second language.
