Classroom Action Research is a method of finding out what works best in your own classroom so that you can improve student learning. We know a great deal about good teaching in general (e.g. McKeachie, 1999; Chickering and Gamson, 1987; Weimer, 1996), but every teaching situation is unique in terms of content, level, s... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teaching_method |
Teachers have their strengths and weaknesses, and adopt particular models to complement strengths and contradict weaknesses. Here, the teacher is well aware of the type of knowledge to be constructed. At other times, teachers equip their students with a research method to challenge them to construct new meanings and kn... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teaching_method |
About 3000 BC, with the advent of writing, education became more conscious or self-reflecting, with specialized occupations such as scribe and astronomer requiring particular skills and knowledge.

Norwegian composer Lasse Thoresen composed a piece of choral music for the Bergen International Music Festival in May 1996, in which the Long Healing Prayer was sung, first in the original Arabic and then in English. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Healing_Prayer |
Baháʼu'lláh wrote several other healing prayers, including a prayer for women, one for infants, and a well-known short prayer starting with the phrase "Thy Name is my healing", which is part of Baháʼu'lláh's Lawh-i-Tibb (Tablet to a Physician). There is also a prayer for protection from "calamity and pestilence" (epide... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Healing_Prayer |
An infrared sauna uses infrared heaters to emit infrared light experienced as radiant heat which is absorbed by the surface of the skin. Infrared saunas are popular in alternative therapies, where they are claimed to help with a number of medical issues including autism, cancer, and COVID-19, but these claims are entir... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
John Harvey Kellogg invented the use of radiant heat saunas with his incandescent electric light bath in 1891. He claimed that it stimulated healing in the body and in 1893 displayed his invention at the Chicago World's Fair. In 1896 the Radiant Heat Bath was patented by Kellogg and described in the patent as not depen... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
The idea became popular, particularly in Germany where "Light Institutes" were set up. King Edward VII of England and Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany both had radiant heat baths set up in their various palaces. The modern concept of the infrared sauna was revived in the 1970s in Japan as Waon (Japanese: "soothing warmth")... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
Infrared saunas can be designed to look like traditional saunas but cheaper models can be in the form of a tent with an infrared element inside. In recent years, infrared sauna mats have also been developed that claim some of the same benefits as an infrared sauna. Infrared saunas differ from other types of sauna such ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
Far infrared light, which is emitted in an infrared sauna at a wavelength of around 10 μm, is felt directly by the body in the form of radiated heat without the need to heat the air around the body first. This results in a lower ambient air temperature allowing for longer sustained stays in the sauna. Infrared light al... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
A 2009 literature review of research on far-infrared saunas (FIRS) concluded that there was limited moderate evidence supporting their efficacy in normalizing blood pressure and treating congestive heart failure. The review found fair evidence from a single study supporting FIRS therapy for chronic pain. They found fai... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
All of the studies in the review were limited: they small sample sizes, short duration, unvalidated symptom scales, and were conducted by the same core research group. In February 2021 Steven Novella of Science-Based Medicine commented on the quality of studies in an article entitled "Infrared Saunas for 'Detoxificatio... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
There are several problems with linking this evidence to alleged health benefits. First – these effects are all short term, during the sauna and for 30 minutes following. We don't know if there is any sustained change in cardiovascular function. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
Second, we don't know that these changes are improvements. This relates to the third issue, it is possible that at least most of these changes may simply be due to dehydration. Reduced blood volume from water loss (similar to a diuretic effect) will reduce the blood pressure and increase the heart rate, relaxing blood ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
So perhaps all we are seeing is a transient effect of the dehydration that accompanies using a sauna.

There are a number of claims made about the health effects of infrared saunas that are entirely based in pseudoscience and have no evidence to support them. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |
Proponents of infrared saunas may, without evidence, advertise benefits of detoxification, or that infrared saunas detoxify to a greater extent than traditional saunas. Proponents of infrared saunas will often claim that because infrared light penetrates the body so deeply, it must detoxify better than other means of s... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna |

In semiotics, linguistics, anthropology, and philosophy of language, indexicality is the phenomenon of a sign pointing to (or indexing) some element in the context in which it occurs. A sign that signifies indexically is called an index or, in philosophy, an indexical. The modern concept originates in the semiotic theo... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Peirce's concept has been adopted and extended by several twentieth-century academic traditions, including those of linguistic pragmatics,: 55–57 linguistic anthropology, and Anglo-American philosophy of language.Words and expressions in language often derive some part of their referential meaning from indexicality. Fo... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Linguistic signs may also derive nonreferential meaning from indexicality, for example when features of a speaker's register indexically signal their social class. Nonlinguistic signs may also display indexicality: for example, a pointing index finger may index (without referring to) some object in the direction of the... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
In disciplinary linguistics, indexicality is studied in the subdiscipline of pragmatics. Specifically, pragmatics tends to focus on deictics—words and expressions of language that derive some part of their referential meaning from indexicality—since these are regarded as "he single most obvious way in which the relatio... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
The concept of indexicality was introduced into the literature of linguistic anthropology by Michael Silverstein in a foundational 1976 paper, "Shifters, Linguistic Categories and Cultural Description". Silverstein draws on "the tradition extending from Peirce to Jakobson" of thought about sign phenomena to propose a c... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
It is indexicality, not Saussurean grammar, which should be seen as the semiotic phenomenon which language has in common with the rest of culture. : 12, 20–21 Silverstein argues that the Saussurean tradition of linguistic analysis, which includes the tradition of structural linguistics in the United States founded by L... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |

The concept of indexicality has been greatly elaborated in the literature of linguistic anthropology since its introduction by Silverstein, but Silverstein himself adopted the term from the theory of sign phenomena, or semiotics, of Charles Sanders Peirce. As an implication of his general metaphysical theory of the thr... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
As captioned by Silverstein, these are: Icon: a sign in which "the perceivable properties of the sign vehicle itself have isomorphism to (up to identity with) those of the entity signaled. That is, the entities are 'likenesses' in some sense. ": 27 Index: a sign in which "the occurrence of a sign vehicle token bears a ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
That is, the presence of some entity is perceived to be signaled in the context of communication incorporating the sign vehicle. ": 27 Symbol: the residual class, a sign which is not related to its object by virtue of bearing some qualitative likeness to it, nor by virtue of co-occurring with it in some contextual fram... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Sign vehicle and entity signaled are related through the bond of a semantico-referential meaning": 27 which permits them to be used to refer to any member of a whole class or category of entities.Silverstein observes that multiple signs may share the same sign-vehicle. For instance, as mentioned, linguistic signs as tr... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
It also functions indexically, by indexing its symbol type, since its use in context presupposes that such a type exists in the semantico-referential grammar in use in the communicative situation (grammar is thus understood as an element of the context of communication). : 27–28 So icon, index and symbol are not mutual... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
In linguistic anthropology, deixis is defined as referential indexicality—that is, morphemes or strings of morphemes, generally organized into closed paradigmatic sets, which function to "individuate or single out objects of reference or address in terms of their relation to the current interactive context in which the... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Non-referential indices or "pure" indices do not contribute to the semantico-referential value of a speech event yet "signal some particular value of one or more contextual variables." Non-referential indices encode certain metapragmatic elements of a speech event's context through linguistic variations. The degree of ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
One common system of non-referential indexicality is sex/gender indices. These indices index the gender or "female/male" social status of the interlocutor. There are a multitude of linguistic variants that act to index sex and gender such as: word-final or sentence-final particles:many languages employ the suffixation ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
In fact, some, such as the prefix-affixation of o- in Japanese, demonstrate complex higher-order indexical forms. In this example, the first order indexes politeness and the second order indexes affiliation with a certain gender class. It is argued that there is an even higher level of indexical order evidenced by the ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Affective meaning is seen as "the encoding, or indexing of speakers emotions into speech events." The interlocutor of the event "decodes" these verbal messages of affect by giving "precedence to intentionality"; that is, by assuming that the affective form intentionally indexes emotional meaning. Some examples of affec... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Affective forms are a means by which a speaker indexes emotional states through different linguistic mechanisms. These indices become important when applied to other forms of non-referential indexicality, such as sex indices and social identity indices, because of the innate relationship between first-order indexicalit... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Deference indices encode deference from one interlocutor to another (usually representing inequalities of status, rank, age, sex, etc.). Some examples of deference indices are: | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
The T/V deference entitlement system of European languages was famously detailed by linguists Brown and Gilman. T/V deference entitlement is a system by which a speaker/addressee speech event is determined by perceived disparities of 'power' and 'solidarity' between interlocutors. Brown and Gilman organized the possibl... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
These two principles conflict in categories 2 and 5, allowing either T or V in those cases: Superior and solidary: T Superior and not solidary: T/V Equal and solidary: T Equal and not solidary: V Inferior and solidary: T/V Inferior and not solidary: VBrown and Gilman observed that as the solidarity semantic becomes mor... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Japanese provides an excellent case study of honorifics. Honorifics in Japanese can be divided into two categories: addressee honorifics, which index deference to the addressee of the utterance; and referent honorifics, which index deference to the referent of the utterance.

Contrarily, distal form index social contexts of a more formal, public nature such as distant acquaintances, business settings, or other formal settings.

Dyirbal, a language of the Cairns rain forest in Northern Queensland, employs a system known as the affinal taboo index.

Hypercorrection is defined by Wolfram as "the use of speech form on the basis of false analogy." DeCamp defines hypercorrection in a more precise fashion claiming that "hypercorrection is an incorrect analogy with a form in a prestige dialect which the speaker has imperfectly mastered." Many scholars argue that hyperco... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
The latter index can be defined as a speaker's attempts at self-correction in areas of perceived linguistic insufficiencies which denote their lower social standing and minimal social mobility.Donald Winford conducted a study that measured the phonological hypercorrection in creolization of English speakers in Trinidad... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Multiple non-referential indices can be employed to index the social identity of a speaker. An example of how multiple indexes can constitute social identity is exemplified by Ochs discussion of copula deletion: "That Bad" in American English can index a speaker to be a child, foreigner, medical patient, or elderly per... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
In much of the research currently conducted upon various phenomena of non-referential indexicality, there is an increased interest in not only what is called first-order indexicality, but subsequent second-order as well as "higher-order" levels of indexical meaning. First-order indexicality can be defined as the first ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
In other words, they perceive or recognize an incongruence between their levels of power and/or solidarity and employ a more formal way of addressing that person to suit the contextual constraints of the speech event.

For example, a woman is walking down the street in Manhattan and she stops to ask somebody where a McDonald's is. He responds to her talking in a heavy "Brooklyn" accent.

For demonstrations of higher (or rarefied) indexical orders, Michael Silverstein discusses the particularities of "life-style emblematization" or "convention-dependent-indexical iconicity" which, as he claims, is prototypical of a phenomenon he dubs "wine talk." Professional wine critics use a certain "technical vocabu... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
In other words, the wine drinker becomes a refined, gentlemanly critic and, in doing so, adopts a similar level of connoisseurship and social refinement. Silverstein defines this as an example of higher-order indexical "authorization" in which the indexical order of this "wine talk" exists in a "complex, interlocking s... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
Philosophical work on language from the mid-20th century, such as that of J.L. Austin and the ordinary language philosophers, has provided much of the originary inspiration for the study of indexicality and related issues in linguistic pragmatics (generally under the rubric of the term deixis), though linguists have ap... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexicality |
This exclusive focus on linguistic expressions represents a narrower construal than is preferred in linguistic anthropology, which regards linguistic indexicality (deixis) as a special subcategory of indexicality in general, which is often nonlinguistic.
