the effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولPhosphomannomutase deficiency (PMM2-CDG): ataxia and cerebellar assessment
BACKGROUND Phosphomannomutase deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation. The cerebellum is nearly always affected in PMM2-CDG patients, a cerebellar atrophy progression is observed, and cerebellar dysfunction is their main daily functional limitation. Different therapeutic agents are under development, and clinical evaluation of drug candidates will require...
متن کاملAcute cerebellar ataxia.
Acute cerebellar ataxia occurring in childhood is a definite clear-cut syndrome, yet only three cases appear to have been reported in the British literature (Batten, 1907; Taylor, 1913), although more recently cases with similar features have been included in wider surveys on encephalitis by Brewis (1954) and on ataxia by Shanks (1950). Typically the clinical picture is characterized by the sud...
متن کاملA case of Cerebellar Ataxia
The patient denied any headaches, vertigo, weakness, confusion, bowel or bladder dysfunction and the unsteadiness was independent of position. Bowel movements were normal and he reported no other symptoms of abdominal pathology. The patient drank on average 10 units of alcohol a week and reported no recent increase in consumption. He was a life-long non-smoker, and denied any recent symptoms of...
متن کاملRobotic Compensation of Cerebellar Ataxia
The cerebellum is believed to play a role in dynamic compensation in the human motor control system. When it is damaged, subjects make clumsy movements with reduced acceleration, increased overshoot, and swerving in multi-joint movements. These errors, which are referred to clinically as ataxia, are consistent with failing to compensate for the dynamics of the body, especially its inertia durin...
