    This paper proposes a corpus encoding standard that meets the needs of linguistic research using a variety of linguistic data structures. The standard was developed in SFB 441, a research project at the University of Tuebingen. The principal concern of SFB 441 are the empirical data structures which feed into linguistic theory building. SFB 441 consists of several projects, most of which are building corpora to empirically investigate various linguistic phenomena in various languages (e.g. modal verbs in German, forms of address and politeness in Russian). These corpora will form the components of the "Tuebingen collection of reusable, empirical, linguistic data structures (TUSNELDA)". The TUSNELDA annotation standard aims at providing a uniform encoding scheme for all subcorpora and texts of TUSNELDA such that they can be processed with uniform standardized tools. To guarantee maximal reusability we use XML for encoding. Previous SGML standards for text encoding were provided by the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) and the Expert Advisory Group on Language Engineering Standards (Corpus Encoding Standard, CES). The TUSNELDA standard is based on TEI and XCES (XML version of CES) but takes into account the specific needs of the SFB projects, i.e. the peculiarities of the examined languages and linguistic phenomena

    Examining Quality Inclusive Practices in Early Childhood Education

    Get PDF
    This literature review synthesizes research on practices for high quality early childhood inclusion. The inclusive practices that are examined are categorized under participation, access, and supports. This review of literature examines the measurement tools used to assess the quality of inclusive practices used in early childhood settings. Research published in the last ten years shows that there are some promising measures that can be used going forward to assess the quality of inclusive practices in early childhood

    Acquiring Viewpoint Aspect One Level at a Time

    This paper examines children’s comprehension of viewpoint aspect at three levels: the pragmatic, the morpho-syntactic, and the semantic. Results (1) confirm Berman and Slobin (1994)’s finding that children have not mastered the pragmatic use of backgrounding for viewpoint aspect by five years old; (2) show that children have mastered the mapping of viewpoint aspect onto the morpho-syntax of English by age 3;7; (3) show that children aged 2;6, while they behave at chance levels in the morpho-syntactic task with viewpoint aspect, nevertheless demonstrate comprehension of the semantics of viewpoint aspect as they are carried through the open-class vocabulary
