<p>The present study deals with two types of L2 glosses, namely dynamic and traditional text-based glosses. The former were presented to students as a set prompts designed help learners identify the correct keyword, whereas latter introduced annotations containing L1 equivalents. A third control group was included in study. Particularly, focus is compare effects these glosses Primary Educ...

this study compared the effects of two annotation modalities on the reading comprehension of iranian intermediate level efl learners. the two experimental groups under study received treatment on 10 academic l2 reading passages under one of two conditions: one group received treatment on key words in the reading passages through a multimedia environment providing textual annotations. the second...

at the present work, the effect of cold exhaust gas recirculation (egr) on combustion and pollution of a dual fuel engine has been investigated by cfd code fire. the turbulent flow within the combustion chamber is simulated using the k-ε turbulence model, which is modified for engine flows. “wave” and “eddy break up” models are employed to predict combustion and spray process. the calculations ...

The current demands placed on scientists to increase public awareness of their findings involves recontextualizing highly technical research be understood by diversified audiences. In the present study, a corpus 20 online digests drawn from British Psychological Society website, which are condensed versions recently published articles, is quantitatively and qualitatively explored in terms (meta...

The SENSEVAL-3 task to perform word-sense disambiguation of WordNet glosses was designed to encourage development of technology to make use of standard lexical resources. The task was based on the availability of sensedisambiguated hand-tagged glosses created in the eXtended WordNet project. The hand-tagged glosses provided a “gold standard” for judging the performance of automated disambiguati...

objective(s): a novel iq-specttm method has become widely used in clinical studies. the present study compares the quality of myocardial perfusion images (mpi) acquired using the iq-specttm (iq-mode),conventional (180° apart: c-mode) and l-mode (90° apart: l-mode) systems. we assessed spatial resolution, image reproducibility and quantifiability using various physical phantoms. materials and me...

The CMOS based dual mode logic gates containing two operating modes: 1) static mode 2) dynamic modes. Features of dual mode logic gates are low power dissipation in static mode and high performance in dynamic mode. This methodology is used to minimize the delay and improve the speed of the logic gates and an additional clocked transistor is used in this methodology. It provides the very high le...
