In an evolving landscape of traditional and new literacies, the roles of the school library and teacher librarian are changing. In order to support instruction in multiple literacies, teacher librarians must rethink both collections and services. Materials featuring popular culture influences are explored for their relevance to several types of literacy instruction. The inclusion of popular culture materials in school library collections can support achievement in traditional literacy while facilitating connection with everyday literacy practices. Popular culture materials also provide instructional opportunities for critical media literacy as well as information literacy. Popular culture texts are worthy of inclusion in school library collections for reasons enhancing both pedagogy and...

Intercultural communicative competence has been widely accepted as the aim of EFL teaching. In order to obtain this competence, Culture teaching must be implemented in the college English teaching. Textbooks have played a very important role in the course of teaching and learning. Textbooks introduce students the cultures of different countries and regions, thus making it convenient for students to exert a relatively remarkable influence on the fostering of students' cultural awareness and competence of intercultural communication. This paper focuses on the content analysis of the cultural content in College English (New) (henceforth, CE (New)).

After several exceedingly well-received headlining stands at Rumor's Comedy Club -- including one during last year's festival -- [Sammy] will be taking his act to one of the fest's big-show stages. He'll also be taking part in one of this weekend's taped-for-radio editions of The Debaters, the popular returning feature that sees host Shaun Majumder playing referee as duelling standups go head to head on a number of pop-culture and current-events topics. No one comes to a show saying, 'Let's give this guy a break because he's from somewhere else.' They're not going to meet you halfway. "Winnipeg, for some reason, is one of my favourite cities to play in," he says. "I just love it there. It's hard to put my finger on why -- I think Winnipeg is that link between Eastern Canada and Wester...
Yet reports on the lack of coherence in international studies curricula, (Ishiyama and Breuning 2004; Brown, Pegg and Shively 2006) the parochialism of international relations teaching in the United States, (Alker and Biersteker 1984) or the issues left largely unaddressed in US international affairs courses, (Murphy 2001) speak of the extent to which educators do have a decisive (if not always welcome) impact in defining the nature of international affairs and foreign policy for their students. Through a survey of Canadian university calendars online, 50 political science or international affairs courses dealing with a subject matter specifically related to the general field of Canadian foreign policy were identified.\n While six English-language outlines raise the question of societa...
