This book is a fascinating and informative research report by a group of teachers who set out to teach children who have failed to acquire a useful degree of literacy; in it they discuss their experiences. The authors are presenting evidence about a central and constant problem in education, an essential kind of evidence which is often ignored, because it is so difficult to collect and present. The report presents enough case-notes and recordings of lessons and discussions to allow readersRoutledge library editions.Education.Language artsRemedial teachingLongitudinal studiesLiteracyLongitudinal studiesLanguage artsRemedial teachingLiteracy428.00712Spencer Margaret Meek1925-,874619Armstrong Stephen1531739MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790378103321Achieving literacy3777621UNINA04182nam 22006495 450 991054484560332120251202142111.09783030733230303073323810.1007/978-3-030-73323-0(MiAaPQ)EBC6884936(Au-PeEL)EBL6884936(CKB)21078934900041(DE-He213)978-3-030-73323-0(EXLCZ)992107893490004120220207d2022 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMeasurements, Numerals and Scales Essays in Honour of Stephanie Solt /edited by Nicole Gotzner, Uli Sauerland1st ed. 2022.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2022.1 online resource (361 pages)Palgrave Studies in Pragmatics, Language and Cognition,2946-2584Print version: Gotzner, Nicole Measurements, Numerals and Scales Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022 9783030733223 Chapter 1.

Modification of measure nouns.This book brings together chapters on the semantics and pragmatics of measurement, scales, and numerical expressions. The chapters highlight recent developments in measurement theory, the meaning of numerical expressions and the relation between measurement scales and entailment scales. The authors provide explorations in formal and experimental semantics and pragmatics, as well as at the interfaces of this field with others including philosophy of language and sociolinguistics. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in these areas, as well as psychology, psycholinguistics and artificial intelligence.

Uli Sauerland is the Vice Director and the leader of the Semantics and Pragmatics group at the Leibniz Centre for General Linguistics, Germany. .Palgrave Studies in Pragmatics, Language and Cognition,2946-2584PragmaticsLanguage and languagesPhilosophyPsycholinguisticsCognitionPragmaticsPhilosophy of LanguagePsycholinguistics and Cognitive LingusiticsCognitionPragmatics.Language and languagesPhilosophy.Psycholinguistics.Cognition.Pragmatics.Philosophy of Language.Psycholinguistics and Cognitive Lingusitics.Cognition.306.44401.43Gotzner NicoleSauerland UliMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910544845603321Measurements, numerals and scales2918438UNINA
