Abstract: Deconstructing legitimation strategies in political discourse is a means to analyse specific ways in which language represents an instrument of control (Hodge & Kress, 1993) and manifests symbolic power (Bourdieu, 2001). This is even more evident in a case of conflict where political actors flex power and seek to influence perceptions of the populace while justifying their actions. This study examined the linguistic features deployed in legitimising the speeches of President Bola Tinubu (BAT) and General Abdourahamane Tchiani (GAT) on Niger coup. The study appropriated the transitivity system of Halliday’s Systemic Functional Grammar and van Leeuwen’s (1996) Grammar of Legitimation Theory. It incorporated insights from the Critical Discourse Analysis using van Dijk’s Socio-cognition model to delineate identity construction. The four speeches that constituted our data were obtained online and were quantitatively and qualitatively analysed. Findings revealed four legitimation strategies that were used by BAT, namely authorization, rationalization, moral evaluation and mythopoesis. GAT only used two strategies (rationalization and mythopoesis). The legitimation structures were formed using two processes of the transitivity system – material process and relational process. Two legitimate strategies were employed using material process, namely mythopoesis and rationalization. Three legitimate structures were presented using relational attributive process – rationalization, moral evaluation and authorization. The paper concluded by maintaining a position that a thorough analysis of linguistic features and identity construction in legitimation portends a rich model in investigating political discourse in crisis situation.

Keywords: legitimation, legitimation strategies, political discourse, systemic functional grammar, linguistic features, speeches, critical discourse analysis, transitivity system, identity construction.

Abstract: This article aims to provide more information and collect key ideas for educational intervention with students who have dyslexia. To this end, keys are given for the detection, diagnosis and intervention for students who have special educational needs, specifically dyslexia. Dyslexia is defined as a specific neurobiologically based reading learning disorder that persistently affects phonological decoding and/or word recognition, interfering with academic performance with a reading delay of at least two years. This work is intended for future teachers or education professionals who will have to provide an appropriate educational response to these students. In this work you will find its definition, classification, etiology, instruments for psycho-pedagogical evaluation, educational response and a section intended for guidance for families or legal guardians.

Keywords: dyslexia, educational-intervention, students, detection, diagnosis, intervention, teachers.

Abstract: Digital banking, including technologies such as mobile banking, online banking, and electronic payments, has transformed the financial landscape worldwide, including in Kenya. Although there is an increasingly growing body of literature on digital finance in Kenya this review is a relevant and timely topic of research due to the increasing adoption of digital financial services in the country. This paper, therefore, reviewed existing literature on digital banking with a focus on mobile, online and internet banking and their relation to the performance of commercial banks in Kenya. The researchers utilized a significant body of literature focusing on 15 articles concerning select aspects of digital banking on the financial performance of commercial banks. The findings of this paper will be relevant to policymakers, regulators, commercial banks, and other stakeholders in the Kenyan financial sector. Overall, this study contributes to the growing body of literature on the effect of digital banking on the performance of commercial banks in emerging economies, specifically in the context of Kenya. Based on literature reviewed, more research on other digital banking services such as online commodities and currency trading, where commercial banks and other financial institutions have previously dominated, and fintech in Kenya is required.

Abstract: Digital Storytelling is an innovative educational tool that mixes storytelling with the use of new technologies. Specifically, it consists of the creation of a short video (between three to five minutes) in which the subjects express and reflect on specific topics using different digital or technological resources. This educational technique is intended to achieve different objectives such as analyzing the topics studied, promoting personal reflection, contributing to the empowerment of participants, promoting digital skills, improving expressive skills, working on emotional education, developing teamwork, among other secondary objectives. The success of the technique lies in the expressive and reflective capacity resulting from its step-by-step approach. In this work, in addition to establishing previous theoretical notions, a five-phase approach is proposed to be applied in classrooms of any educational level. Finally, some real experiences of the use of this technique are extracted.
