TL;DR: The authors traces the evolution of the enduring rhetorical genre of apologia from the Greek period to the present and argues that apologia has undergone significant changes in form because its function has changed throughout history.
Abstract: This essay traces the evolution of the enduring rhetorical genre of apologia from the Greek period to the present. I argue that apologia has undergone significant changes in form because its function has changed throughout history. Specifically, shifts in function produce five “subgenres” of apologia: self‐exoneration, self‐absolution, self‐sacrifice, self‐service, and self‐deception. The implications for the continued viability of apologia in current times, as well as the critical generic approach grounding the analysis, are examined.

TL;DR: The authors further developed the conceptual tool of racial microaggressions, the systemic, cumulative, everyday forms of racism experienced by people of Color, to articulate a type of visual microaggression.
Abstract: Drawing from critical race and sociolinguistic discourse analysis, this article further develops the conceptual tool of racial microaggressions—the systemic, cumulative, everyday forms of racism experienced by People of Color—to articulate a type of racial microaggression, we call visual microaggressions. Visual microaggressions are systemic, everyday visual assaults based on race, gender, class, sexuality, language, immigration status, phenotype, accent, or surname that emerge in various mediums such as textbooks, children’s books, advertisements, film and television, dance and theater performance, and public signage and statuary. These microaggressions reinforce institutional racism and perpetuate ideologies of white supremacy. In this article, we use a racial microaggressions analytical framework to examine how the “Mexican bandit” visual microaggression has been utilized as a multimodal text that (re)produces racist discourses that in turn reinforce dominant power structures. These discourses have all...

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report findings from research through the Center for Research on the Educational Achievement and Teaching of English Language Learners (CREATE), showing that teachers learned and implemented the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) Model of instruction to improve their students' language and content literacy development.
Abstract: Use of research-based practices for improving content area literacy of English learners is important both because of their growing numbers and their overall poor academic performance. However, how do we ensure that teachers are implementing proven methods with fidelity? This study shows the direct relationship between teachers' level of implementation of such practices on student achievement. Specifically, we report findings from research through the Center for Research on the Educational Achievement and Teaching of English Language Learners (CREATE). In the study, teachers learned and implemented the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) Model of instruction to improve their students' language and content literacy development. The degree to which teachers implemented the model with fidelity resulted in relative improvement in student performance, underscoring the importance of teacher implementation of proven practices.
