I våra flerspråkiga samhällen är kommunikation och samverkan mellan människor viktigare än någonsin. Ett av skolans viktigaste uppdrag är därmed att ge eleverna möjlighet att utveckla sina språkliga förmågor, utveckla interkulturell och flerspråkig kompetens samt lära sig navigera i varierande kulturella kontexter. Denna antologi är tänkt att erbjuda inspiration, värdefulla kunskaper och praktiska råd till lärare och andra aktörer i skolan som ansvarar för språkundervisning och språkutbildning samt vara en resurs för lärarstudenter, lärarutbildare och forskare som arbetar med språk i en utbildningskontext. Antologin samlar texter som belyser språkundervisning ur både teoretiska och praktisk-didaktiska perspektiv. Med bidrag från verksamma lärare, lärarutbildare och forskare riktar antologin blicken mot dagens språkundervisning och belyser den spännvidd som finns inom den nordiska skolkontexten. Författarnas bidrag berör ett brett spektrum av klassrumspraktiker, såsom undervisning av språkliga kompentenser, bedömningspraktiker samt faktorer för språkundervisning och -inlärning. Idéen till antologin föddes i samband med att Fortbildningsavdelningen för skolans internationalisering (FBA) vid Uppsala universitet år 2024 fyllde 60 år.

Sometimes, we are just waiting for a spark. From Billie Holiday to Bruce Springsteen, Bob Marley, John Lennon or Lady Gaga, from “Bella Ciao” to “Alright”: spanning more than half a century, continents and languages, music in the modern world has shaped moments and movements in ways few other art forms can. With music, there is no place we can’t go. No truths too hard to tell, no stories too difficult to sing. This book is about impact. The moments when songs shifted thinking, spurred action, or gave people a voice they didn’t know they had.

"Drop Your Footys" is an intense journey of self-discovery and acceptance, set in the rugged backdrop of the Australian outback. It's the story of Josh, a hardworking tradesman who lives by the conventions of rural society. His everyday attire of footy shorts and T-shirts may seem ordinary, but underneath the surface, a storm of self-questioning and yearning stirs. Josh has a secret that he has kept hidden under his worn-out footy shorts - his fondness for wearing speedos. It's a symbolic secret, one that hints at his deeply concealed desires and burgeoning self-realization. As he navigates through friendships, lust, love, and the complex web of emotions that comes with each, Josh embarks on a life-changing journey. "Drop Your Footys" is an intimate exploration of coming to terms with one's sexuality, of breaking free from societal norms, and embracing the self. It's about the battles one fights within and the sweet liberation that acceptance brings. With footy shorts, speedos, and an assortment of compelling characters, "Drop Your Footys" is an immersive tale that promises to leave you pondering long after you've turned the last page.

Temperature affects everything. It influences all aspects of the physical environment and governs any process that involves a flow of energy, setting boundaries on what an organism can or cannot do. This novel textbook reveals the key principles behind the complex relationship between organisms and temperature, namely the science of thermal ecology. It starts by providing a rigorous framework for understanding the flow of energy in and out of the organism, before describing the influence of temperature on what organisms can do and how fast they can do it. With these fundamental principles covered, the bulk of the book explores thermal ecology itself, incorporating the important extra dimension of interactions with other organisms. An entire chapter is devoted to the crucially important subject of how organisms are responding to climate change. Indeed, the threat of rapid climatic change on a global scale is a stark reminder of the challenges that remain for evolutionary thermal biologists, and adds a sense of urgency to this book's mission.

This book provides an analysis of the impact of the climate crisis on corporate law and theory in the coming decades as the world seeks to meet the target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Net zero targets are a particular challenge for an economy such as Australia which has a historical reliance on fossil fuels, and powerful interests arguing for the continued use of coal and gas. The book examines four recent corporate case studies in Australia. The first two follow the Adani group of companies and coal in Queensland and Rio Tinto and the destruction of ancient rock shelters in the midst of iron ore mining in WA. The book then covers the pension fund member Mark McVeigh, issuing proceedings against REST super in relation to long-run investment decisions and the need to take into account climate risk. Finally, it discusses Sharma, a representative action taken by school children against the Federal government in relation to expansion plans in relation to fossil fuels alleging breach of the duty of care. These case studies highlight some of the key trends and challenges in the intersection between corporate activity and the need to account for climate risk and adaptation, with Australia as a G20 economy having much to contribute to the global debate. The book will be of interest to students and researchers in the field of climate and environmental law, as well as corporate law and theory.

This book conceptualises the role of charity to people who are poor in wealthy countries and outlines a set of practical and conceptual ideas for how it could be reimagined. Despite professionalised welfare states and strong economies, in many advanced industrialised nations, charity continues to play a major role in the lives of people who are poor. Extending what we know about how neoliberalism drives a decayed welfare state that outsources welfare provisioning to charities and community initiatives, this book asks how can we understand and conceptualise society’s willingness to engage in charitable acts towards the poor, and how can charity be reimagined to contribute to justice in an unjust society? Through interrogating multiple data sources, including government datasets, survey datasets, media analyses, and ethnographic data, this book shows that charity is not well-suited to addressing the material dimension of poverty. It argues the need for a revised model of charity with the capacity to contribute to social solidarity that bridges social divisions and is inclusive of the poor. Presenting a model for reimaging charity which enables reciprocity and active contributions from recipients and providers, this book shows how power imbalances flowing from the unidirectional provision of charity can be reduced, allowing opportunities for reciprocal care that foster both well-being and solidarity. This book will be of interest to all scholars and students of social policy, public policy, social welfare, sociology, and social work.
