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 اولA body-powered functional upper limb orthosis.
This paper describes the development and preliminary testing of a functional upper-limb orthosis for people that have limited strength in their arms. This is symptomatic of conditions such as muscular dystrophy (MD), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and partial spinal cord injury. The exoskeletal orthosis is wheelchair mounted, has two links and four degrees of freedom. It uses linear elastic ele...
متن کاملA new concept of dynamic orthosis for paraplegia: the weight bearing control (WBC) orthosis.
A new concept of device, termed the weight-bearing control (WBC) orthosis, has been designed with three major needs in mind; a rigid frame that supports the user's body weight, a special hip joint device that reciprocally propels each leg forward, a gas powered foot device that varies the sole thickness of the device for foot/floor clearance, and control system of the orthosis. A paraplegic (T7...
متن کامل"Zero-position" functional shoulder orthosis.
The "zero-position" of the shoulder joint described by Saha (1961) is recognized as a mechanical position between scapula and humerus, and the "scapular plane" is widely accepted as a mechanical plane at the shoulder joint. On the basis of biomechanical concepts of the "zero-position" and the "scapular plane", the authors designed the "zero-position" functional shoulder orthosis. This orthosis ...
متن کاملThe Relationship Between Dynamic Stability and Functional Movement Screening Test
Purpose: Recently, the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and Y Balance Tests are used to assess the key movement patterns, dynamic stability and to identify individuals at high risk of injury. But, there are few studies to assess the relationship between the FMS test and Y Balance Test. This study aimed to assess the relationship between dynamic stability and the FMS test. Methods: The subjects...
