Although story mapping strategy has been shown to be beneficial in many reading comprehension classes, the benefits of this technique have not been thoroughly investigated in L2 writing research. The small number of previous studies (e.g., Li, 2007; Brunner, 2010) have found the potential benefits of using story mapping strategy on students’ writing performance, but they did not focus on differ...

We develop a theory of stratified $LM$-filters which generalizes the theory of stratified $L$-filters. Our stratification condition explicitly depends on a suitable mapping between the lattices $L$ and $M$. If $L$ and $M$ are identical and the mapping is the identity mapping, then we obtain the theory of stratified $L$-filters. Based on the stratified $LM$-filters, a general theory of lattice-v...

Traditional and modern vocabulary instruction techniques have been introduced in the past few decades to improve the learners’ performance in reading comprehension. Semantic mapping, which entails drawing learners’ attention to the interrelationships among lexical items through graphic organizers, is claimed to enhance vocabulary learning significantly. However, whether this technique suits all...

The research reported here examined the relative effectiveness of semantic mapping, as an interactive pre-reading strategy, on reading comprehension of Iranian undergraduate students (non-EFL majors). It also examined whether there was an interaction between gender and the effect of teaching semantic mapping strategy on reading comprehension. The participants in this study consisted of 120 male...

the gene encoding alpha fetoprotein (locus symbol afp) was assigned to rat chromosome 14 at band p21-p22 using fluorescence in situ hybridization method. the present result suggests that there is a conserved syntenic group between human 4q11-q13, mouse 5f-g, and rat 14p21-p22.

in this paper we introduce new modified implicit and explicit algorithms and prove strong convergence of the two algorithms to a common fixed point of a family of uniformly asymptotically regularasymptotically nonexpansive mappings in a real reflexive banach space with a uniformly g$hat{a}$teaux differentiable norm. our result is applicable in $l_{p}(ell_{p})$ spaces,$1 < p

this study has examined the effect of semantic mapping on learning vocabulary across genders. the researchers selected 120 intermediate students after the administration of a standard proficiency test. a vocabulary test was also used to measure the students’ vocabulary knowledge. the experimental group received semantic mapping in the pre-reading stage, butthe control group did not receive this...
