Book Description
A few minutes before, Jessica had said, "I now know all that I feel and why." Now, in a decidedly different tone of voice, she said, "But I still don't know me or even if a me really exists....I'm trying to find her, and I can't!" She dug her fingertips into my back. "I can't find my me. She's been lost! Are you sure she's there?" "Sure." My reassurance had no effect. The secret terror that had haunted her before she had had words for it, came gushing out. "I'm not even sure she exists anymore, or if she didn't just die, or if she didn't just leave somewhere. Will you help me find her? I can't. I can't find her anywhere. She's gone! Ow! No! No! My 'me' never had a chance. As soon as I got my hands on it, somebody ripped it away from me!"

But the stranger seems determined to strike up a conversation and gain Jessica’s attention. On their journey together, he tells her that his name is Paul and that he finds her beautiful, all before asking her out on a date. Now, some women would have been flattered by such a compliment, but not Jessica! She has sworn off any interest in men and is less than impressed by a pass being made at her, and rudely tells Paul her thoughts on the matter before they part ways. The next day, the scene between Paul and herself plays in her mind and Jessica wonders if she had been too harsh with her words to him, but she puts her feelings of guilt aside taking comfort in the fact that she will never see the stranger again. Unfortunately, she finds out the hard way that fate sometimes throws people together, and to her surprise and horror she meets Paul again at the hotel where she works. This time around, she becomes aware that the stranger is no other than Mr Paul Truman who is a billionaire. What’s even more surprising is that fact that Paul seems even more determined than ever to prove that he is just the man for her!

The Impacts of Language and Literacy Policy on Teaching Practices in Ghana
Author: Philomena Osseo-Asare
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000363317
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 159
Book Description
This text critically examines changes in Ghanaian language and literacy policy following independence in 1957 to consider its impacts on early literacy teaching. By adopting a postcolonial theoretical perspective, the text interrogates the logic behind policy changes which have prioritised English, local language, or biliteracy. It draws on data from interviews with teachers and researcher observation to demonstrate how policies have influenced teaching and learning. Dr Osseo-Asare’s findings inform the development of a conceptual framework which highlights the socio-cultural factors that impact the literacy and biliteracy of young children in Ghana, offering solutions to help teachers combat the challenges of frequent policy changes. This timely monograph will prove to be an essential resource not only for researchers working on education policies, teacher education, and English-language learning in postcolonial Ghana but also for those looking to identify the thematic and methodological nuances of studying literacy and education in postcolonial contexts.
