Understanding how language revitalisation works: a realist synthesis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Indigenous communities, linguists, teachers, and language activists have been developing methods to revitalise endangered languages over several decades. Not only are these diverse, they usually implemented in various ways according local needs aspirations. Language revitalisation focus on proficiency, but there is also interest strengthening identity, resilience, wellbeing. Aside from a handful of successes, programs may not be achieving desired outcomes. One could try evaluate specific programs. However, we believe that necessary first step examine published literature efforts develop initial understandings how work. In particular, seek understand tap into the speech community, participation affects outcomes, this involvement supported sustained by external programs, with Australia. We conduct realist synthesis, through analysis 125 pieces literature, identify 13 theories. analysing theories, two major gaps our understanding revitalisation: work strengthen communities promote commitment. propose as significant, under-theorised elements successful which can guide exploration at level individual

A Novel on understanding How IRIS Recognition works
Algorithms developed by the author for recognizing persons by their iris patterns have now been tested in six field and laboratory trials, producing no false matches in several million comparison tests. The recognition principle is the failure of a test of statistical independence on iris phase structure encoded by multi-scale quadrature wavelets. The combinatorial complexity of this phase info...
متن کاملClearly a breakthrough for better understanding how brain works
Combining neuroscience and chemical engineering, researchers at Stanford have developed a process that renders a mouse brain transparent. The postmortem brain remains whole — not sliced or sectioned in any way — with its three-dimensional complexity of fine wiring and molecular structures completely intact and able to be measured and probed at will with visible light and chemicals. The process,...
متن کاملHow a Dimmer Works
There are several types of dimmers generally available. Those employing triac or thyristor devices operate in a very similar fashion. These are used for resistive, and inductive loads, such as incandescent, cold cathode and low voltage (inductive) lamp sources. Note that not all electronic transformers used for low voltage lamps are suitable for dimming by triac or thyristor dimmers. Specialist...
متن کاملHow a NAT Works
Today, network address translators, or NATs, are everywhere. Their ubiquitous adoption was not promoted by design or planning but by the continued growth of the Internet, which places an ever-increasing demand not only on IP address space but also on other functional requirements that network address translation is perceived to facilitate. This article presents a personal perspective on the his...
متن کاملUnderstanding how self-management interventions work for disadvantaged populations living with chronic conditions: protocol for a realist synthesis
INTRODUCTION Self-management programmes are complex interventions aimed at improving the way individuals self-manage chronic conditions, but there are questions about the overall impact of these programmes on disadvantaged populations, in terms of their capacity to engage with and receive the benefits from these initiatives. Given the increased resources being directed towards self-management i...
