In this model the diffusion of English is captured in terms of three concentric circles of the language: the Inner Circle, the Outer Circle, and the Expanding Circle. [21] The Inner Circle refers to English as it originally took shape and was spread across the world in the first diaspora. In this transplantation of English, speakers from ...
The inner circle (UK, US, etc.) is 'norm-providing'. That means that English language norms are developed in these countries – English is the first language there. [citation needed] The outer circle (mainly New Commonwealth countries) is 'norm-developing'. The expanding circle, which includes much of the rest of the world, is 'norm-dependent ...
The Expanding Circle's longest chapter concerns the relationship between reason and ethics. [2] Singer discusses the relationship between biological capacity for altruism and morality. He argues that altruism, when directed to one's small circle of family, tribe or even nation, is not moral, but it becomes so when applied to wider circles.
Inside-outside circle is a cooperative learning strategy. Students form two concentric circles and take turns on rotation to face new partners to answer or discuss the teacher’s questions. [ 1 ] This method can be used to gather variety of information, generate new ideas and solve problems.
Moral circle expansion is an increase over time in the number and type of entities given moral consideration. [1] The general idea of moral inclusion was discussed by ancient philosophers and since the 19th century has inspired social movements related to human rights and animal rights.
The inner circle is observed to slip with respect to its track. The paradox is that the smaller inner circle moves 2πR, the circumference of the larger outer circle with radius R, rather than its own circumference. If the inner circle were rolled separately, it would move 2πr, its own circumference with radius r. The inner circle is not ...
When the outer Soddy circle has positive curvature, both Soddy centers are equal detour points. When the outer Soddy circle has negative curvature, its center is the isoperimetric point: the triangles ABP 2, BCP 2, and CAP 2 have equal perimeter. In geometry, the Soddy circles of a triangle are two circles associated with any triangle in the
Outer Circle (London), a railway route in London 1872–1908, and the related Super Outer Circle; Outer Circle railway line, a steam-era suburban railway line in Melbourne, Australia now the Outer Circle Trail; counterclockwise service on the Yamanote Line in Tokyo, Japan; Inner–outer directions, labels that identify the direction of travel ...
