  3. Communities of Practice (CoPs) • A group of people who: • Participate in shared, repeated practices • Share some values • Use language in similar, specialized ways This term focuses emphasizes how shared activities help to define a community

  4. Linguistic Landscapes • What CoP does your picture represent? • What are some of the practices in that CoP? • Language • Clothing • Activities • Are there practices that seem more “normal”? Less normal?

  5. Markedness • Unmarked categories, language, and identities: • Are thought of by a community as “natural,” “normal,” or “ordinary” and are therefore less visible • Examples: walk; The Warriors; “a man” • Marked categories, language, and identities: • Are thought to somehow differ from the norm • Examples: walked; The Lady Warriors; “a gay man”

Journals • What examples can you give of things that would be marked vs. unmarked in 1 of your CoPs or in 1 of the spaces in your linguistic landscape? • What blends into the landscape as normal and almost invisible? • What stands out? • Think about language as well as other practices (clothing, people, activities)
