This study attempted to examine the relationship between WTC and two types of speaking tasks:Dialogue and narrative/monologue. The significance of this study lies in its theoreticalcontributions to the WTC construct and the pedagogical implications in second languageteaching and learning. Sixty one intermediate female EFL learners were selected through anOxford Placement Test (OPT) from Tabares...

ABSTRACT This paper presents a combinational system, which can perform the functionalities of Auto Focus (AF) and Auto Exposure (AE) at the same time in a very efficient manner. At the first step, this system uses a DOG (Difference of Gaussian) filter to measure image’s contrast and sharpness simultaneously. Then, a fuzzy logic-based scheme is proposed for the adjustment of focus and exposure. ...

Different finite difference replacements for the derivative are analyzed in the context of the Heisenberg commutation relation. The type of the finite difference operator is shown to be tied to whether one can naturally consider D and X to be self-adjoint and skew self-adjoint or whether they have to be viewed as creation and annihilation operators. The first class, generalizing the central dif...

Lowie and Verspoor (2019) had an unexpected finding in their work Individual Differences the Ergodicity Problem: The main predictor for proficiency gains 22 beginning Dutch learners of English over one year was not traditional individual difference (ID) factors, but degree variability that occurred time. We speculate might stand “investment” as students strive excellent product at time, are abl...
