This comparative analysis of teacher-student interaction in two different instructional settings at the elementary-school level (18.3 hr in French immersion and 14.8 hr Japanese immersion) investigates the immediate effects of explicit correction, recasts, and prompts on learner uptake and repair. The results clearly show a predominant provision of recasts over prompts and explicit correction, ...

• Transfer performance is not necessarily facilitated by metacognitive prompts. Learners supported prompts express more strategical activities. Process models of self-regulation and unsupported learners are similar. Sequences SRL seem important in explaining than frequencies.

Pedestrian safety is a serious concern at busy intersections and pedestrian campuses across the nation. Although crosswalks and signs inform pedestrians where to cross, there is no standard protocol for pedestrians to signal drivers that they wish to use the crosswalks, except to stand in or at the crosswalk. We examined the effects of two pedestrian prompts, a raised hand and extended arm, on ...

One area of study that has been gathering enthusiastic attention and interest is mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT). How to research MKT, however, is still unsettled despite the plethora of unexamined areas of practice. As one of ways to unearth and measure MKT, this study uses interview prompts designed to providing written feedback, as a target area of practice. This study specifies in...

An observational workflow time study was conducted involving doctors in the emergency department (ED) of a large Australian hospital. During 121.7 h across 58 sessions, we observed interruptive events, conceptualised as prompts, and doctors' strategies to handle those prompts (task-switching, multitasking, acknowledgement, deferral and deflection) to assess the role of multiple work system fact...

The focus of this study was to investigate the effects of student-question generation with online prompts on student academic achievement, question-generation performance, learning satisfaction and learning anxiety. This study adopted a quasi-experimental research design. Two classes of eighth grade students (N = 64) from one middle school participated in weekly 45-minute online question-genera...

This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of Picture Book-based Dialogic Reading (PBbDR) in enhancing a 3rd grader’s creativity. The intervention program picture book-based dialogic reading included four steps (PEER), and five prompt methods (CROWD). PEER is an acronym Prompt, Evaluate, Expand Repeat, CROWD Completion prompts, Recall prompts, Open-ended Wh Distancing prompts. We adopted mul...

BACKGROUND Health behavior interventions using periodic prompts have utilized technology, such as the Internet, that allows messages to be sent to participants in cost-effective ways. To our knowledge, no comprehensive evidence review has been performed specifically to evaluate the effectiveness of communicating regular messages and to examine how characteristics of the prompts change the effec...

We present the result of an experiment that examines the subjective responses of radiologists to a prompting system designed to assist with screening mammography. The results suggest that we should re-conceive our notions about the value of False Positive (FP) prompts. We conclude that the eeectiveness of a prompting system operating at a given sensitivity is a function of the types of FP promp...

The present study evaluated the effects of prompts and incentives on designated drivers in a bar. We defined the dependent variable as the percentage of customers either functioning as or riding with a designated driver. We used an ABCA design to evaluate the effectiveness of prompts and incentives on the dependent variable. Results indicated that the intervention was successful at increasing t...
