Abstract During the course of the past few decades, teachers have increasingly become the center of attention in education, since their significant role in teaching contexts has been approved, and therefore their different aspects, such as reflective teaching and burnout have received great attention.

The present study aimed to document the constraints and limits in applying reflective teaching principles in ELT settings in Iran from the teachers’ perspective along with solutions and coping strategies to help remove the obstacles. 60 teachers teaching general English at 6 language institutes were selected through convenience sampling. First, the teacher participants filled out a reflectivity...

nanostructured alumina thin films were coated on stainless steel by sol-gel dip coating method. in order to prevent crack formation, al2o3 films were kept in a solvent bath immediately after coating to reduce the rate of drying. effects of calcination temperature and withdrawal speed on structural properties were analyzed using xrd and sem. topography and thickness of coatings were analyzed by ...

Solution-cast coating films of perchlorate-doped oligo(3-methoxythiophene) exhibited a gold-like luster similar to that metallic gold despite the involvement no metals. However, development mechanism remains ambiguous. To understand mechanism, we performed scanning electron microscopic analysis, variable-angle spectral reflectance measurements, and ellipsometry measurements on ClO4−-doped cast ...

The structure of the Ga terminated GaAs(100)-c(8x2) surface has been a topic under debate during the last decade. A complex model involving strong reconstructions was recently proposed after extensive Total Energy calculation[1], and was also confirmed by Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) dynamical calculations[1]. Further studies, based on X-ray Diffraction techniques (SXRD), basically co...

In this paper we present an eecient design for message passing over a reeective memory network. First, we consider the attributes of reeec-tive memory communication networks and the requirements to eeciently build message-passing functional-ity on these networks. We then introduce the Bill-Board Protocol, a lock-free protocol which provides low-latency send, receive, and multicast functionality...

Abstract: In this paper, we present algorithms for efficiently implementing three collective communication operations on reflective memory network clusters: Broadcast, Barrier Synchronization and All-Reduce. These algor...
