    Sammanfattning : Mainstream research on reading and writing is based on the assumption, common in modern linguistics, that spoken language is primary to written language in most important respects. Unfortunately, the conceptual framework for the study of language and 'literacy' (encompassing both reading and writing skills) is built around this assumption. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Contrasting language-in-education policy intentions, perceptions and practice : the use of English and Kreol Seselwa in the Seychelles

    Författare :Justin Zelime; Mats Deutschmann; Anders Steinvall; Angeline Mbogo Barrett; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Code switching; Kreol Seselwa Seychelles Creole ; L2 Medium of Instruction; Post Colonialism; Language Policy; Translanguaging; Bilingualism; Multilingualism; language studies; språkvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Many studies have shown that Second Language (L2) Medium of Instruction (MoI) policies in Africa are linked to educational inequity, substandard teaching practice, low literacy skills and poor overall academic performance. In the light of this background, this thesis aims to make a more thorough inquiry into questions related to language-in-education policies, L2 as MoI, and academic success in the Seychelles, a small island nation in the Indian Ocean.

    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis contains work on a specific problem in field of Language Technology. The problem can be described as follows: "Can a computer extract a description of word conjugation in a natural language using only written text in the language?" The problem is often referred to as Unsupervised Learning of Morphology (ULM) and has a wide variety of Language Technology applications, including Machine Translation, Document Categorization and I nformation Retrieval.
