this research chiefly focused on the application of mitigation strategies and traditional form of feedback in writing development of the fifth semester university students majoring in tefl and english translation fields based on vygotsky’s sociocultural theory in general and the notion of “zone of proximal development” in particular. to that end, this study relied on a pre-posttest experimental...

A method for solving the descriptor discrete-time linear system is focused. For easily, it is converted to a standard discrete-time linear system by the definition of a derivative state feedback. Then partial eigenvalue assignment is used for obtaining state feedback and solving the standard system. In partial eigenvalue assignment, just a part of the open loop spectrum of the standard linear s...

abstract the extent to which teachers’ written corrective feedback (wcf) is conducive to esl learners’ improvement has been discussed since truscott’s claim in 1996. the mentioned debate continues because there has been lots of contrastive research studies with different results. this paper presents the results of a 2-month study of the effectiveness of wcf to 65 low intermediate iranian learne...

We present the findings of a pilot-study that analysed the role of haptic feedback in a musical context. To closely examine the role of haptics in Digital Musical Instrument (DMI) design an experiment was formulated to measure the users’ perception of device usability across four separate feedback stages: fully haptic (force and tactile combined), constant force only, vibrotactile only, and no ...

Researchers have paid almost no attention to the narrative comments that typically accompany multirater feedback reports despite the fact that both anecdotal and empirical evidence suggest that feedback recipients devote considerable attention to such comments. The authors examined improvement in upward feedback ratings over a 1-year period for 176 managers as a function of (a) the number of na...

A feedback system should be developed for the Blockchain Academy Mittweida, which can store courses offered anonymously and without duplication. It possible, removing anonymity of users, to determine whether has already been submitted by a user. For this purpose, technology linkable ring signatures was used. This allows users grouped into submit anonymously. To interest in understanding solutio...
