Paraguay´s English Language Fellow Jonathan Maiullo worked with the ACCESS program to arrange an argumentative essay contest with ACCESS students across the country. The contest was held with over 100 ACCESS students in Asunción, San Lorenzo, Encarnación and Cuidad del Este. Before the contest began, the ELF visited each location with a presentation on the most common mistakes in writing. The workshop also included an example of a five-paragraph essay and a template for the students to use and a discussion component that promoted writing as a process rather than a product.

Be Like the Bird
«Be like the bird, who
resting in his flight
on a twig too slight
feels it give way beneath him,
yet sings
knowing he has wings.»

I am the last advocate for reducing texts, scriptures and languages to mere graphic forms. The whole dimension of the text's meaning, histories, combinations, connotations, sound and craft is disregarded. What is more problematic is that I am ignoring the power of words to move and persuade people.
After first year and my first internship, I felt slightly disillusioned and confused by what Architecture meant to me. I took a trip to Myanmar and the trip recalibrated a lot things. I found it particularly grounding and inspiring for some of the things that I want to achieve in the future.
The spatial and formal organisation of the Burmese language in signage was something I found very compelling. At least with the handwritten texts, so much thought and effort was put into crafting every character. You see pencil marks, underlays, brush strokes and outlines. There is a combination of type faces and textures to create visual impact in different programmatic contexts that I find fascinating.
The Burmese name for the round script is "ca-lonh", literally translating to "round text". There are 33 main characters in the Myanmar language. Instead of words that are formed by a combination of alphabets (like in English), this language makes use of additional vowel shift symbols, tonal change symbols and consonant modification symbols. The rounded form of the characters is a result of the use of palm laves a the traditional writing material. Straight lines and forms would tear the leaves.
By compiling this, I am exposing my status as alien and an outsider. However, the focus on the visuals may have the inverse effect of celebrating the text, for text's sake, specifically, it is celebrated as visual form and not just a sign that says "eggs", or something.
Regardless, I tried to interpret the scope of "text" in a broad but focused way - text, in its literal form, text in prayer, text in recitation, text in architectural program (the stupas of Kuthodaw Pagoda). Photos are arranged in chronological order. The journey started in Yangon, then upstream along the Ayarwaddy river, to Mandalay and Bagan, then back again to Yangon.
These photos aren't really anything special in terms of photography, and I am not going to attempt to make sweeping claims about directing a new visual order, but as a composite they attempt to represent my yearning to celebrate a culture of appreciation for the process driven intensity in text making and in the creation of form.
This workshop was designed for beginning teachers who are preparing for a licensing test. The English Language Director of Tirana Public Schools, Fozilet Simoni, invited Prof. Zimmerman to conduct the workshop to give the teachers some information about integrating skills which is a topic that is often addressed in the national tests. After introducing themselves, the participants worked individually to brainstorm what ‘integrated skills’ means.

UNICODE 5.1.0 meets Or-Omcode∞.1.0
Unicode represents the Tower ob Babel en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Babel In computing, Unicode is an industry standard allowing computers to consistently represent and manipulate text expressed in most of the world's writing systems. Developed in tandem with the Universal Character Set standard and published in book form as The Unicode Standard, Unicode consists of a repertoire of more than 100,000 characters, a set of code charts for visual reference, an encoding methodology and set of standard character encodings, an enumeration of character properties such as upper and lower case, a set of reference data computer files, and a number of related items, such as character properties, rules for normalization, decomposition, collation, rendering and bidirectional display order (for the correct display of text containing both right-to-left scripts, such as Arabic or Hebrew, and left-to-right scripts). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UniCode
Or-Omcode∞.1.0 represents a new Universal Language de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universalsprache derived within the Doctine Of Essense by
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Christian_Friedrich_Krause
Encoding Unicode into the Or-Omcode∞.1.0 all traditional languages become semantically transformed within the new universal language parameters. portal.or-om.org/art/UnicodemeetsOrOmCode/tabid/6319/Defa...

Prime Moment: Teaching a class to be their best in work
Doesn't really relate to languages or the world or anything, but it's my entry. Hopefully I'll win 50 bucks (in gift card form).
How can I make creative and expressive the laborious work that I am employed to do? Why do I struggle to complete that what I have to accept? My mind speaks of the labours that have to be loved but why must I surrender self-expression and inner growth to survival..can I not have both in this world of predetermined formulae...how to balance both I often ask.. how to find the beauty in repetition; life in the mundane; passion in the seemingly futile; how to find the language of the senses...work quickly I say...catch up with the dream by working quickly...
