The Lexile® Framework for Reading There is no direct correspondence between a specific Lexile measure and a specific grade level. Within any classroom or grade, there will be a range of readers and a range of reading materials. For example, in a fifth-grade classroom there will be some readers who are ahead of the typical reader (about 250L above) and some readers who are behind the typical reader (about 250L below). To say that some books are "just right" for fifth graders assumes that all fifth graders are reading at the same level.
Why do academics choose useless titles for articles and chapters? Four steps to getting a better title. An informative title for an article or chapter maximizes the likelihood that your audience correctly remembers enough about your arguments to re-discover what they are looking for. Without embedded cues, your work will sit undisturbed on other scholars’ PDF libraries, or languish unread among hundreds of millions of other documents on the Web. Patrick Dunleavy presents examples of frequently used useless titles and advises on using a full narrative title, one that makes completely clear your argument, conclusions or findings.

About the Book – The Enlightened Worldview Project We all have fundamental beliefs about reality and about ourselves, and it is from these beliefs that one constructs a worldview. Some people have a traditional worldview, while others have a more modern or postmodern worldview. In the world today there is a clash of worldviews, between those who are traditionally minded with religion and spirituality vs. those who embrace science and are largely nonreligious in character. Unfortunately, people who have significantly different worldviews are often unable to understand each other and are unable to productively communicate with each other. Such disparate groups also have incompatible ethical and moral frameworks and vastly different political ideologies, and this causes increasingly dangerous and unbearable tension in society. In order to try to address this clash of worldviews, this book investigates the basic building blocks of fundamental beliefs and how they are constructed into worldviews.
How to manage your time effectively when dealing with the IELTS Reading section IELTS is a graded test. This is the main reason why the time to complete the reading tasks seems limited, a lot of times, at least to some students who aim to achieve a score between 5 and 6/6.5. Effective time management is of primary importance, therefore, in this particular exam. So, how can we help learners develop the right techniques? One of these is to find ways to combine our search for information for all or most of the reading tasks right from the beginning. To the degree, of course, that this is possible.
The Freshperson Problem – Lingua Franca - Blogs Earlier this week, I had my copy-editor hat on and was working my way through a newsletter for a graduate program at the university. I was fixing typos, inserting and deleting commas (often for the sake of consistency), changing words to avoid repetition, and the like. Then at one point, I watched myself prescriptively cross out the phrase “freshman composition” and reword it as “first-year composition.” I have long been a supporter of nonsexist language reform, from using singular generic they to replacing –man words with nongendered alternatives.
Queer Rhetoric and the Pleasures of the Archive Jonathan Alexander, University of California, IrvineJacqueline Rhodes, California State University, San Bernardino Enculturation (2012): (Published January 16, 2012) Queering the borders of knowledge production, we offer “Queer Rhetoric and the Pleasures of the Archive” in Enculturation along with a companion video at Technoculture: An Online Journal of Technology in Society. The Technoculture video distills our interrogation of logos, ethos, and pathos; the Enculturation piece builds on and expands that critique. We believe that this partnership—between authors, between genres, between journals—challenges those borders sanctioned and policed by the academy, and we hope that similar collaborations happen in the future.
