    Acknowledgement of Country In the spirit of reconciliation the Australian Council of TESOL Associations (ACTA) acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. We acknowledge that the arrival of the English language to this continent impacted the traditional languages and cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and celebrate the work to reclaim or maintain these languages. ACTA members teach English in addition to supporting the maintenance and development of First Languages, and encourage the acquisition and use of other languages – including First Nations Languages

Referencing should follow the APA referencing style; for examples, see a recent issue of the journal at http:// www.tesolincontext.org.au/. References in the text should be ordered alphabetically and contain the name of the author and the year of publication, e.g. (Adams, 2001; Jones, 1998). For direct quotations include the relevant page number(s), e.g. (Jones, 1998, p. 34). TESOL in Context, Volume 30, No.1 TESOL in Context Tables, figures or diagrams should be numbered consecutively and included in the relevant part of the text. Each should have an explanatory title.

    Potential of economy socialisation in the context of globalisation

    Get PDF
    Development of the world economy bears numerous negative phenomena, and require constant need to rebalance socioeconomic interests of nations, transnational subjects, and individuals. Socialisation is an important and effective tool for balancing social and individual; however, despite socialisation is evolving rapidly, its scientific and practical potential is not duly uncovered. In the article theoretical and methodological foundations of socialisation of economy is surveyed in the context of globalisation, and etymology, explanations, scope, historical phases of development, theoretical aspects and practical forms of use, consequences and prospects are analysed. The term «socialisation» was determined as a multidisciplinary, used in many scientific fields, increasingly involving various areas of research and is understood as inclusion, adaptation and development of human being in society. It was determined that the economy socialisation is implemented in different fields and semantic structures, contains a large number of methodological tools, is involved at all management levels, and is primarily identified with the increasing role of social component in the life of human resources. The assumptions were made about the future transformation of this category in line with the identified predictive trends

    Entrepreneurship. Context matters: Matters in context

    Get PDF
    Context has been recognized as shaping entrepreneurship. However, much less has been said about the interplay between entrepreneurship and social context and how entrepreneurship may actually shape context. Through looking at current and ongoing work, this presentation characterizes entrepreneurship as a contextual event. In doing so, it draws on the ideas of embeddedness, social capital, social bonds and social networks to show that relationships play meaningful roles in the entrepreneurial process. Insight is presented about the role of such relationships and how those that exist between entrepreneurs and the communities with whom they engage can influence practice and outcomes. The argument is also made that entrepreneurship is both shaped and influenced by context, and that it is therefore critical to look at entrepreneurial matters in their context.Universidad de Málaga.

    Context Trees: Augmenting Geospatial Trajectories with Context

    Get PDF
    Exposing latent knowledge in geospatial trajectories has the potential to provide a better understanding of the movements of individuals and groups. Motivated by such a desire, this work presents the context tree, a new hierarchical data structure that summarises the context behind user actions in a single model. We propose a method for context tree construction that augments geospatial trajectories with land usage data to identify such contexts. Through evaluation of the construction method and analysis of the properties of generated context trees, we demonstrate the foundation for understanding and modelling behaviour afforded. Summarising user contexts into a single data structure gives easy access to information that would otherwise remain latent, providing the basis for better understanding and predicting the actions and behaviours of individuals and groups. Finally, we also present a method for pruning context trees, for use in applications where it is desirable to reduce the size of the tree while retaining useful information
