Training users to learn a new computer application can be a daunting task in large organizations. One solution involves selecting super users who will receive more extensive training and will serve later as the primary source of help to other users in their work unit. Tailored rather than generic training programs seem better suited to providing these super users with the required knowledge bas...

objective: it has been shown that berberine, a major component of berberis vulgaris extract, modulates the activity of several neurotransmitter systems including dopamine (da) and n-methyl-d-aspartate (nmda) contributing to rewarding and reinforcing effects of morphine. drug craving and relapsing even after a long time of abstinence therapy are the most important problems of addiction. in the p...

* Corresponding author: Helen Meng ([email protected]) Abstract This paper presents a system named MusicSpeak, which strives to capitalize on musical rhythm for prosodic training in second language acquisition. The system targets for Chinese (L1) speakers learning English (L2). Their speech rhythms are considered to be syllable-timed and stress-timed respectively. Hence, language transfer c...

There are many ways for a learning system to generalize from training set data. There is likely no one style of generalization which will solve all problems better than any other style, for different styles will work better on some applications than others. This paper presents several styles of generalization and uses them to suggest that a collection of such styles can provide more accurate ge...

objective(s): calcineurin (cn) is a main phosphatase and a critical regulator of cellular pathways for learning, memory, and plasticity. the fk-506 (tacrolimus),a phosphatase inhibitor, is a fungal-derived agent and a common immune suppressant extensively used for tissue transplantation. to further clarify the role of cn in different stages oflearning and memory the main aim of this study was t...

The role of oral corrective feedback has been investigated by SLA researchers from various perspectives. Focusing on Iranian EFL context, the present study aimed to explore the role of receiving corrective feedback in the learning of English grammatical structures. It also probed the association between the type of corrective feedback and EFL learners’ learning styles. This was an experimental ...
