Internationalisation, multilingualism and English-medium instruction: the teacher's perspective

[EN]In the newEuropean higher education space, Universities in Europe are exhorted to cultivate and develop multilingualism. The European Commission’s 2004–2006 action plan for promoting language learning and diversity speaks of the need to build an environment which is favourable to languages. Yet reality indicates that it is English which reigns supreme and has become the main foreign language used as means of instruction at European universities. Internationalisation has played a key role in this process, becoming one of the main drivers of the linguistic hegemony exerted by English. In this paper we examine the opinions of teaching staff involved in English-medium instruction, from pedagogical ecologyof-language and personal viewpoints. Data were gathered using group discussion. The study was conducted at a multilingual Spanish university where majority (Spanish), minority (Basque) and foreign (English) languages coexist, resulting in some unavoidable linguistic strains. The implications for English-medium instruction are discussed at the end of this paper.

The 9th International Test Commission Conference (ITC) took place at the Miramar Palace in San Sebastian, Spain, between the 2nd and 5th of July, 2014. The Conference was titled, “Global and Local Challenges for Best Practices in Assessment.” The International Test Commission, ITC (www.intestcom.org), is an association of national psychological associations, test commissions, publishers, and other organizations, as well as individuals who are committed to the promotion of effective testing and assessment policies and to the proper development, evaluation, and uses of educational and psychological instruments. The ITC facilitates the exchange of information among members and stimulates their cooperation on problems related to the construction, distribution, and uses of psychological and educational tests and other psychodiagnostic tools. This volume contains the abstracts of the contributions presented at the 9th International Test Commission Conference. The four themes of the Conference were closely linked to the goals of the ITC: - Challenges and Opportunities in International Assessment. - Application of New Technoloogies and New Psychometric Models in Testing. - Standards and Guidelines for Best Testing Practices. - Testing in Multilingual and Multicultural Contexts.

Veintisiete años después del «Auriñaciense y Perigordiense en el País Vasco». Nuevas investigaciones de campo acerca del Paleolítico superior Inicial en el País Vasco

[ES] Veintisiete años después de la publicación de la primera síntesis sobre el Paleolítico superior inicial en el País Vasco, nos proponemos actualizar esta temática de acuerdo a los avances desarrollados en la investigación de campo a lo largo de estos años. Valoramos como un hito el citado artículo debido a diferentes motivos, que se exponen con cierto detalle en el texto. Debido a diferentes circunstancias (que intentaremos exponer), se detecta un desfase creciente entre actividad de campo y publicación de resultados, que de no corregirse puede dar lugar a excavaciones inéditas y, por tanto, no productivas.

En torno a algunas escenas pictóricas de caza del repertorio artístico del SE del Sahara Occidental

[ES] Se describen 4 escenas artísticas con significación cinegética conservadas en otros tantos abrigos situados al SE del Sahara Occidental. Se han reconocido directamente sobre el terreno en el marco del proyecto de investigación sistemática que, desde 2005, llevamos a cabo en la región saharaui del Tiris. Configuran un conjunto de representaciones pictóricas en las que uno o varios individuos se muestran en actitud de cazar uno o varios animales. Tras la valoración analítica del gesto temático, se propone una ordenación cronoestilística para la serie.
