- The Routledge Handbook of English for Academic Purposes (2016, background): “Instead, he argues that it also reveals the marketisation and neo-liberalisation of higher education, which is most definitely not a neutral activity (Pennycook, 1997, pp. 258–259).”
- Words as Tools: Learning Academic Vocabulary as Language Acquisition (2012, background): “…science has generated a large number of studies examining science literacy (Cerv-etti, Bravo, Hiebert, Pearson, & Jaynes, 2009; Lemke, 2002; Schleppegrell, 2004a; Snow, 2010), but two recent studies in particular have demonstrated science language development with diverse populations of students.”
- The Benefits of Reminiscing With Young Children (2016, background): “I thought ‘Jesse’s feeling a little bit scared,’ but you didn’t move or cry. . .’” Narrative talk in the preschool years establishes the beginnings of academic language, which bodes well for children’s school success (Snow, 2010).”
- Scientific Outreach: Toward Effective Public Engagement with Biological Science (2014, background): “Using appropriate language is also crucial to becoming a likable messenger: The authoritative tone of scientific communication is inherently alienating, and many common words have different meanings in academic papers than they do in public settings (Snow 2010).”
