Processability Theory, a component of the cognitive approach to second language acquisition tries to enhance understanding of how the interlanguage knowledge systems can be restructured by second language learners (Pienemann, 1998, 2015). The present study intended to run a similar investigation into the syntactic development of Right-Brain and Left-Brain Dominant Iranian EFL learners based on ...

the purpose of this paper was to see whether any significant relationship exists among efl learners’ autonomy, left/right brain dominance, and reading comprehension of the academic reading and general reading modules of ielts examination. to this end, 100 female efl learners were randomly selected from those who were attending ielts preparatory courses at a language school in tehran. all partic...

In recent years, the concept of ‘inclusiveness’ in teaching, learning and assessment has become increasingly acknowledged. Inclusive education, as a philosophy, addresses the fact that many learners, of all ages, experience barriers to learning and education because education systems are often explicitly geared towards those possessing favoured (and often ‘traditional’) ways of learning. Among ...

Introduction. The recent emphasis on learning strategies and their effects on success has promoted researchers from different disciplines to carry out research in this regard. Methods. This paper reports the results of the study performed on 41 students, randomly selected out of 120 students, in an attempt to find out their learning style preferences. It has replicated the study presented by ...

The present study aimed to investigate the general pattern of brain dominance of undergraduate Shiraz University students and its effect on the use of listening comprehension strategies. Data was collected from 142 undergraduate Shiraz University students. The Hemispheric Dominance Test (HDT) was given to the participants to categorize them as right-, left- and whole-brain dominant, and the Str...

Traditionally engineering education is heavily left brain dominant; as a result, right brain dominant students are discouraged from entering this field. However, this approach also causes some problems for the left brain dominant students, as the power of the right brain is not fully utilized. In this paper we propose a more balanced approach, which can make full use of the functionality of bot...
