Giftedness in the area of first language has not yet been scientifically researched more in detail. This specific giftedness can be observed in the linguistic and literal competences of students. As these competences are very important for many different professions, it is important to not only analyze them but to also develop them. The Language Drawer is a model that points out how these competences can be developed and what teachers or coaches need to help gifted students improve their competences. An important aspect of giftedness is creativity. As creativity proves helpful inproblemsolving in various contexts, especially in engineering science, but also in many other areas such as natural science, politics or economics, it is important for any gifted student to develop creative skills. Creativity can be observed in first language products, but it can also be developed by producing new language products. The language drawer offers various activties to develop student creativity.

This article proposes a historical and political meditation on the very origin of the idea of democracy (from the Greek demos) and on the birth of the concept of secularism (from the Greek Laos) in the postmodern Western societies of Europe. This article, using stimulating sociological, political and historical considerations, provides an unprecedented reflection on what it means to "make people", a fortiori on a European scale.

Digital tools are everywhere: they occupy a great part of our day even all of it, whoever we are and wherever we are. At the end of 2016, we will reach the number of 3.5 billions of Internet users worldwide, including 48 millions in France. The French people have never used so many digital devices and one of the most common uses is the digital communication. This digital communication is pluri-semiotic: it's done by voice, by image and by writing. This kind of numerical writing is what we are interested in this article. We will explain what these kind of writers produce with it: - A variety of handwriting composed of “écrilectes” (Laroussi & Liénard, 2013; Liénard, 2014a); - “Technological discursive traces” (Paveau, 2013) being all of them a sort of identity marks (Bevilacqua, 2016); - Or a handwriting variation from a particular language, sometimes, "among other languages" (Laroussi & Liénard, 2008, Liénard, 2014b). This last aspect, in particular, it will lead us to focus our interest in the numerical writing of multilingual writers. Based on Jim Cummins' works (1984, 2000), we will try to describe the Mahoran's literacy skills who write this type of language nowadays, and write the languages of Mayotte in the digital networks.

In this paper, I examine the role of Scots as an important marker of identity, on an internet forum focused on all things Scottish. The sense of belonging may be complex for people living in heterotopia: Scotsmen abroad, or Canadians with a Scottish heritage… Scots becomes a homelanguage, and its use is a proof of belonging to Scotland. Teaching and translating into and from Scots is highly praised, and help create cooperation between the members, especially between learners, who are eager, and fluent speakers who try and spread the knowledge of the language. These fluent speakers also stress on the importance of the localization of words, that is their enregisterment, and indexical value. Giving a word's origin is justifying one's legitimacy and proficiency. They switch back and forth between Scots and English, with different scopes: Scots is an affective language, whereas English mainly conveys reasoning and prescription. Scots, a minority language offline, becomes a communaulectal discourse bringing members together culturally.

For the last three decades, at least, linguists working on the sociolinguistic situation in Tunisia have described it as being both a diglossia and a bilinguism. For the most part, they have presented the languages as being used under different circumstances, in accordance with the theoretical model described by C. A. Ferguson (1959) and J. Fishman (1967), that is a two-variety system where Literary Arabic would be used in formal situations, while Tunisian Arabic would be used for non-formal settings. By freeing public speech, the 2011 Tunisian revolution allowed the population to use social networks, and more specifically Facebook to write and communicate in a language that the diglossic ideology had confined to orality and non-formal settings for the longest time. Using the analysis of Tunisian internet users' discourse, this paper aims at showing that Facebook has offered a unique chance to Tunisian Arabic—that Facebook users have nicknamed Tounsi—because not only has it taken it out of the familiarity domain, but it has helped reverse the diglossic ideology, which was canonical and rigid, by making it evolve towards normalization, in the Catalan sociolinguistics sense.

It is our concern with a sociolinguistics perspective that explains our interest in the digital writings as well as in the use of languages i n social networks in the Tunisian context. This paper aims at investigating electronic practices in the Tunisian scriptural landscape in a context of social change and globalization. The question that we propose to deal with is related to the notion of "relationship to writing" and that of the stake of languages t h rough electronic communication. In a plurilingual and post-revolutionary context, as in Tunisia, a country with a democratization of speech and a newborn freedom of speech (oral, then oralised and written), the writers resort to electronic writing by using different languages a n d different scriptural methods, with different levels of frequency. This involves all generations. It is in this debate that our concern with dynamic and perpetually-evolving practices reflects communicative behaviors that are specific to scriptural identities which are both convergent and divergent. This situates writers within a communication that is specific to the intra-group. Our paper will shed lights on the degree of reactivity, assiduity and the mechanisms of electronic writing involving three observed age groups: young, intermediate and elders. This paper also seeks to study to what extent the age variable can be at the origin of both categorization and creation of scriptural identities. The linguistic facts produced by the new technologies would translate the conscious and/or unconscious birth of a new scriptural, cultural, and Tunisian identity in this case: An identity of the extended group which concerns "communities of virtual words" (Laroussi F. and Lienard F. 2013a) as a whole, communities for which the "passage to writing" is the result of " A social construction" (Delamotte, 2000), and an identity of the small group that reappropriates the written word, especially young people by expressing themselves through a new multi-graphic and essentially imaged communication code marking space and time.

The digital corpuses oblige the researchers to think how to invent new more relevant concepts for their study. We are interested, within the framework of this article, in the question of the multilingualism and its status in the construction of an ethos of the digital citizen or of what Crystal calls a netizen (Crystal, 2001) Through the study of a corpus of tweet collected further to the terrorist attack in Sousse. We aim to understand how are the interactions between the users of the social network Twitter governed by collective linguistic standards? How on-line multilingual linguistic practices participate in the construction of a digital citizenship?

The notion of blasphemy is both in the field of linguistics - for blasphemy is an act of language - and theology - for blasphemy is an outrage to God. As is well known, the competence that I possess only affects linguistics. It is therefore in linguistics that I will pose one of the linguistic problems posed by blasphemy: that of the relations between blasphemy and autonomy. The result is to be foreseen: for lack of competence in theology, I will at most be able to pose this problem, without being able to solve it. I am not really sure that he can receive a clear solution. Before turning to this problem, however, I think it is useful to briefly describe the state of blasphemy today.

This is a practice-based research, in the process of creating Ketchup（《番茄酱》）, a short work of animated documentary as an exploration of autobiographical memory and trauma memory, the author also experimented with the narration structure and visual metaphor in animated documentary. Since a series of important animated documentary works were first produced starting in 1995, including Drawn from Memory(Paul Fierlinger,1995), Sunrise over Tiananmen Square (Shuibo Wang, 1999) and Waltz with Bashir (Ari Folman,2008), animated documentary has revealed a new style of narration for the author themselves, and at the same time a device for social criticism. By using “first person” perspective or even voices, animated documentary can deeply rethink and question social problems and historical trauma. This paper focuses on the spectrum of memory, including the taste of memory, the color of memory, the structure of memory and the metaphor of memory, these aspects of memories will be explored deeply through the cross-dialogue between the above art works and a series of animated documentaries from east European countries. The key point of research of animated documentary also relies on rethinking and redefining what animated documentary is, this paper demonstrates animated documentary is already beyond the discussion of ontology of animation or documentary, it is a new entity with its own identity and potential.
