	Tuning-In
		He found that pausing was a central issue in the interaction between storytellers and their audiences, so he studied the phenomenon of tempo as a way of learning more about the role of pausing and about the role of rhythm in interaction.
		Perhaps these Athabaskan teachers (and the KEEP teacher) were able to adjust to the rhythms of the children because they were more familiar with those rhythms.
		Another possible explanation for the difference in the Athabaskan teachers' tuning-in behavior is that perhaps these Athabaskan teachers view their role as teachers in a fundamentally different way than do many other teachers.

	Archaeology of Interior Alaska
		The Athabaskans have been defined as a group of mostly forest dwelling, hunting and gathering Indians, organized into bands, speaking a group of fairly closely related languages.
		Anthropologists and linguists generally agree that proto-historic and historic Athabaskans were a separate group in Alaska, distinguishable on cultural and linguistic grounds from neighboring Inupiat, Yupik, Northwest Coast and Pacific Coast cultures.
		Other groups of Athabaskan languages exist on the Pacific Coast of Oregon and northern California (where it is spoken by a number of riverine and coastal tribes), and in the Pueblo-Southwest (the Apachean languages which include Navajo, Kiowa, Lipan and various Apache tribes).

		The paper that is most likely to catch the attention of non-Athabaskanists is McDonough’s challenge to the traditional position-class template model of the Athabaskan verb.
		She makes a persuasive case for a radically different analysis of Athabaskan morphology, one that explicitly attempts to represent the native speaker’s working knowledge.

	Canadian Tribal Association - Athabaskan
		The British Admiralty agreed that the UK should build the first ones and they also acted as agents, arranging for the Canadian Government to buy the Tribals by a system of direct instalments while Britain paid cash for the corvettes being built in Canadian yards for the RN.
		ATHABASKAN was therefore renamed IROQUOIS and launched as the lead ship while the original IROQUOIS was launched as ATHABASKAN.
		After her commissioning on 3rd February 1943 at Newcastle-on-Tyne, she was assigned to the British Home Fleet but ATHABASKAN was plagued with mishaps during her very short service life.

	Journal of American Indian Education-Arizona State University
		The problem of a lack of reliable and systematic contrastive descriptions of the LEs spoken by Native Alaskan students may be unique to Alaska; while little has been done in Alaska, a number of useful studies of English language difficulties have been done with other Native American groups (Fletcher, 1983a).
		Each year, the writing sample assignment (called the "prompt") is designed by a team consisting of the APEL instructional coordinator, a linguist (Athabaskan specialist) from the University of Alaska Native Language Center, and the researcher who will conduct the detailed analysis of the writing samples.
		The materials have been found to be of interest to all Alaskan Native students, not only Athabaskan students, because they are professional looking, attractive, and treat in knowledgeable detail the lifestyle of the students.
