Item Promoting a writing club in the EFL classroom to react to abusive and intrusive surveillance at schools(2016) Vargas Lopez, Richard DamianSurveillance has been spreading over the last years due to security problems, terrorism, and other factors that menace people s integrity. Countries such as the United States or the UK use mass surveillance to keep an eye on everybody. This way, surveillance is infiltrating places where they may not be acceptable, since it can be hostile and disturbing. This is the case of academic environments such as schools, universities or libraries where the excessive use of surveillance is affecting dramatically learners behavior and learning process. In the text, the author questions the use of extreme surveillance at schools, and proposes the creation of a writing club where learners raise their voices against the use of intrusive surveillance in academic settings.Item The Linguistics of Gratitude and Courtesy in Indian and Sri Lankan English(2021) Gaßmann, Steffen; Huber, Magnus; Mukherjee, JoybratoThis corpus-based Master Thesis explores linguistic politeness and gratitude in Indian and Sri Lankan English. First, the theory section displays the historical development of the Indian and Sri Lankan English varieties, as well as the current status and characteristics of South Asian English. Since this thesis focuses on South Asian English varieties, Schneider's Dynamic Model and Kachru's Three Circles Model are also discussed. In the last parts of the theoretical framework, approaches to linguistic politeness are defined and previous research on gratitude is presented. In the methodology section, details about the extracted data set from the International Corpus of English (ICE) are explained. The results are then presented and discussed in terms of previously formulated research questions.
