Effects of a Large Group Combined Narrative and Expository Language Intervention on Oral Language in Third GradersLee, Kylie Lynn 02 April 2020 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a combined narrative and expository language intervention on third graders' oral language. The participants included 96 third-grade students from two schools in the Mountain West region of the United States. In a quasi-experimental design, all third-grade students in one school (n = 46) were assigned to a treatment condition and all third-grade students in another school in the same school district (n = 50) were assigned to a control condition. Both treatment and control groups received large group oral narrative language intervention led by classroom teachers. The treatment group received additional large group expository language intervention led by the investigators. At posttest, students' narrative retells were analyzed for story grammar and language complexity. Primary and generalized expository outcomes were also analyzed for text structure and language complexity at posttest. Performances of the treatment and control groups were compared using ANCOVA across all measures. The results indicated that the control group and the treatment group did not have statistically significantly different narrative outcomes. However, the treatment group did make statistically significant improvements in expository text structure and some features of expository language complexity across both the primary and generalized expository measures when compared to the control group. This early efficacy study demonstrated the effects of a combined narrative and expository language intervention on expository language of third-grade students over and above narrative language intervention alone. It is possible that a dual focus on narrative and expository oral language instruction will not only impact students' oral language, but also reading comprehension and writing. Future research with a stronger experimental design should investigate the effect of narrative and expository oral language instruction on such distal outcomes.

Assessing laboratory report writing skills of first entering bachelor of science studentsVeldtman, Helga Delene January 2020 (has links)
Thesis (M. A. (English Studies)) --University of Limpopo, 2020 / Conventional laboratory report writing skills present an enormous challenge to first
entering science students including the Bachelor of Science (BSc) students at Sefako
Makgatho Health Sciences University (SMHSU). First entering students are expected
to meet essential tertiary discourse requirements and standards consistent with their
scientific community. The purpose of this study was to explore how content lecturers
in cognate departments assess laboratory report writing skills of first entering BSc
students. The research design was exploratory and a mixed approach was used.
Students sat for a criterion-referenced test and interviews were conducted with content
lecturers to collect data; quantitative basic statistical interrogation of the basic data
points and post interview analysis were performed. Some of the key findings of this
exploration was that most first entering BSc students are in a dire situation regarding
the laboratory report writing genre; they are unable to communicate comprehensive
and intelligible information in the written laboratory reports. Thus, content lecturers
and English language lecturers from the Department of Language Proficiency (DLP)
need to strategically collaborate in order to improve the performance of first entering
BSc students.

A study of students' perspective on the teaching-learning activity in a digital societyBokhari Irminger, Sabina January 2019 (has links)
This case study looks at upper-secondary school students’ opinions about the use of digital and non-digital tools in the classroom. One of schools’ most important aims is to prepare students for a well-adapted citizenship. In a world of digitalisation, schools are also implementing more and more digital tools in teaching situations and many students in Sweden have access to a computer each at school. This paper investigates how students feel about note-taking using paper and pen or computer, what they feel is important for their futures and what preferences they have when it comes to the use of digital media in their lessons. A focus group interview (n=7) was carried out. From the themes found through the interview, a questionnaire was constructed and answered by 66 students. The results show that students are divided in their preferences for taking notes by hand or by computer. Students see the benefits and limitations of both methods. They generally find it easier and faster to type on the computer, but are concerned about the distractions that the computer offers. They feel that hand-writing is more time-consuming but that it is better for remembering the material. Overall, they find that hand-writing is better for learning (better now) but that being dexterous using the computer is important for their future (better in the future). It is important that teachers foster both skills so that students get a balanced education.

Valuable paper and counterfeit presentments: Alfred Jones, the American Art-Union, and antebellum bank note engravingLett, Telesia Amanda 13 November 2019 (has links)
The antebellum era was a time of paper—there were newspapers and magazines to read, advertising bills to recognize, and money in the pocket to evaluate. Both the bank note companies and art unions emphasized the quality of the artists they hired, and publicized these works for their taste and nationalizing sentiments. These groups set out to produce a product that encouraged consumer confidence in paper in exchange for something more lasting, such as a painting in oil or a gold coin. The link between these two ideas and the creators of that ineffable quality that lent confidence to both the bank note and the fine art engraving was the engraver himself. Navigating this modern, paper economy in both realms were engravers such as Alfred Jones (1819-1900), a man who made his way in the financial and art worlds, and whose ambitions and career serve as a case study to explore the rapid changes in the demand for images during the Nineteenth Century.
Chapter one situates Jones and his colleagues in their historical era and illuminate how cultural, political, and technological advances created a market where engraving could flourish. Chapter two examines Jones’s role within the art unions of the day, and how those groups advertised the skill of engravers, such as Jones, to bolster notions of value in the prints they issued. Chapter three looks more closely at the images created by engravers, and investigates their role in establishing and reinforcing a national visual lexicon that could unify the idea of the nation even as it was unraveling. Chapter four discusses the confusion surrounding counterfeit engravings during the antebellum period and the efforts bank notes companies undertook to highlight the skill of their engravers to reassure the general public of their worth.
The burins of Jones and his cohort, through their work in fine arts organizations and bank note companies created images accessible to the average citizen, images these consumers could recognize and assign a value. They applied their talents to works on paper that illustrated the making of the American self in the years before the Civil War.

Omvårdnadsepikrisens betydelse i vårdkedjanJacobsson, Monica, Larsson, Svante January 2009 (has links)
Bakgrund: Omvårdnadsepikrisen är den utskrivningsanteckning som sammanfattar viktiga händelser under en patients vårdtid rörande omvårdnadsfaktorer när vårdepisoden tagit slut. Termen omvårdnadsepikris ingår som ett så kallat huvudsökord i den svenska dokumentationsmodellen VIPS. Denna modell har tagits fram för att ge stöd åt de olika delarna av omvårdnadsprocessen. Neuropsykiatriska kliniken, avd 1 (NP) vid Universitetssjukhuset Malmö Allmänna Sjukhus (UMAS) genomför ett fortlöpande utvecklingsarbete gällande utformningen av omvårdnadsepikriser vari denna studie ingår som en del.Syfte: Att undersöka vilken betydelse omvårdnadsepikrisen utfärdad av NP har som underlag i det fortsatta omvårdnadsarbetet för sjuksköterskor verksamma inom hemsjukvård, särskilda boenden samt korttidsboenden. Metod: Kvalitativt och kvantitativt utformad enkätstudie baserad på ett strategiskt urval och presenterat med hjälp av en deskriptiv analysmetod. Totalt deltog 18 respondenter.Resultat: Sjuksköterskorna använder omvårdnadsepikrisen utfärdad av NP som ett underlag i den fortsatta omvårdnadsplaneringen. Detta motiverades bland annat med argumenten att det är viktigt att få bakgrundsinformation om patienten för att lättare kunna möta dess omvårdnadsbehov.Slutsats: De sjuksköterskorna som ingår i studien använder NP:s omvårdnadsepikriser som ett underlag för planering av det dagliga omvårdnadsarbetet. Att dessa sjuksköterskor tycker att NP:s omvårdnadsepikriser är till hjälp vid den fortsatta omvårdnadsplaneringen kan också utläsas. Eftersom studiens svar i princip bara behandlar åsikter om just NP:s omvårdnadsepikriser kan resultatet inte överföras såsom gällande för andra avdelningar inom slutenvården. Viss generalisering för undersökt poulation, det vill säga kommunala vårdboende som tar emot eller potentiellt kan ta emot patienter från NP, bör dock kunna göras. / Background: The note that summarizes important events regarding nursing factors during a patients care episode, after the episodes’ ending, is the nursing discharge note. The term nursing discharge note is a part of the Swedish nursing documentation model VIPS which is a model containg of different headwords, where of the nursing discharge note is one. The model has been developed to support the different parts of the so called nursing process. The Neuropsychiatric clinic, department 1 (NP) at the university hospital Universitetssjukhuset Malmö Allmänna Sjukhus (UMAS) is carrying out continuous work to develop their nursing discharge note where of this study can be seen as one part. Aim: To investigate what importance the nursing discharge note written by NP has as a base in the continuous daily care planning performed by nurses in homecare or at different kinds of livings for patients in municipal geriatric care. Methods: A qualitative and quantitative questionnaire study based on a strategic sample and presented with a descriptive method of analyzes. In total 18 informants participated.Results: The nurses participating in this study use the nursing discharge note written by NP as a base in their continuous daily care planning. The importance of knowing the background information about a person to easier meet his need as a patient was mentioned as one of the reasons.Conclusions: The nurses participating in this study use the nursing discharge note from NP as a base for their daily care planning. It can also be understood that these nurses find that the nursing discharge note from NP is helping them in their care planning. The results from this study cannot be used as a guideline for other departments within hospital care as it only focuses on NP’s nursing discharge note. Though, within the investigated population, a certain generalization could be possible to do.

Information Scraps in the Smartphone EraEllis, William Thomas 19 June 2016 (has links)
How people create and use information scraps, the small informal messages that people write to themselves to help them complete a task or remember something, has changed rapidly in the age of mobile computing. As recently as 2008, information scraps had continued to resist technological support. Since then, however, people have adopted mobile connected devices at a rate unimagined in the pre-smartphone era. Developers have, in turn, created a varied and growing body of smartphone software that supports many common information scrap use-cases. In this thesis, we describe our research into how and why people have adopted smartphone technology to serve their information scrap needs. The results of our survey show broad adoption of smartphones for many common information scrap tasks, particularly ones involving prospective memory. In addition, the results of our diary studies show that mobile contexts or locations are highly correlated with people's choosing to use smartphones to record information scraps. Our analysis of our diary study data also provides fresh understanding of the information scrap lifecycle and how mobile digital technology affects it. We find people's smartphone information scraps tend toward automatic archival, and we find their information scraps in general tend toward substantial role overlap regardless of medium. We use these findings to formulate a new information scrap lifecycle that is inclusive of mobile technology. These insights will help mobile technology creators to better support information scraps, which, in turn will allow users to enjoy the huge benefits of digital technology in their information scrap tasks. / Master of Science

A comparison of the effects of two learning sequences on the acquisition of music reading skills for the guitar: Traditional versus Kodaly-basedFridley, Michael D. 01 January 1993 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of the study was to compare two methods for teaching guitar to fifth- and sixth-grade students: one based on the tonal learning sequence of the Kodaly method, the other on the traditional note learning sequence found in standard guitar method books. The null hypothesis was that there would be no significant differences on difference scores or attitude ratings by group, sex, grade, or years of experience. Lessons were designed to teach music reading for guitar to fifth- and sixth-grade students. Note sequences were traditional for the control group, Kodaly-based for the treatment group. The lessons were delivered to intact classes over a five-week period in the spring of 1992. A pre/posttest design was used for data collection. Reading tests, attitude scales, and a student profile were researcher-designed. Listening tests were adapted from Music Achievement Test (Colwell, 1968 & 1970). No significant differences were found on difference scores by group or grade, but significant differences were found by sex and years of experience. There was also a significant interaction between group and sex. When the data were divided by sex there were significant differences between the groups, favoring females in the control group and males in the treatment group. There were no significant differences on attitude rating differences by group, grade, or years of experience, but there were significant differences by sex. No significant interactions were found. The Kodaly sequence worked as well as the traditional sequence for teaching music reading for the guitar. The treatment group had 11% more males than the control group; males scored significantly lower than females. Additionally, the treatment group had 14% more students with no musical experience; students with less experience scored significantly lower than students with more experience. Despite this unequal composition, there were no significant differences between the groups. More research is needed to discover if there would be significant differences between the groups if they are evenly matched by sex and by years of experience. In addition, the finding that the control treatment favored females and the experimental treatment favored males needs to be examined further.

Konsekutivdolmetschen: Stenografie im Selbstversuch – eine Bereicherung für die Notation?: Eine Analyse anhand der Arbeitssprachen Deutsch und Englisch mit einem Exkurs ins SpanischeSchmier, Lisa 15 November 2023 (has links)
In der Dolmetschwissenschaft wird die Stenografie größtenteils mit Skepsis betrachtet. Während es einzelne Stimmen gibt, die einen möglichen Nutzen derselben beim Notationsvorgang des Konsekutivdolmetschens sehen, wird das Stenografieren in diesem Rahmen insgesamt kritisch gesehen. Weit verbreitet ist die Ansicht, dass eine Kurzschrift lediglich beim Erstellen von Wortprotokollen eingesetzt werden sollte. Diese Arbeit geht der Frage auf den Grund, inwiefern die Stenografie, konkret die Deutsche Einheitskurzschrift (DEK), dennoch beim Notationsvorgang des konsekutiven Dolmetschens hilfreich sein kann. Als Grundlage hierfür dient die Analyse der Verdolmetschungen einer Reihe kurzer Reden, die über den Zeitraum von etwa einem Jahr im Selbstversuch unter ausschließlicher oder anteiliger Verwendung der DEK-Vorstufe Notizschrift und der Verkehrsschrift konsekutiv verdolmetscht wurden. Die Schwierigkeit der Reden wurde dabei schrittweise gesteigert. Der Fokus der Analyse liegt auf dem Sprachenpaar Englisch-Deutsch, wobei auch Besonderheiten für Spanisch-Deutsch aufgezeigt werden. Betrachtet werden hierbei sowohl die Notizen selbst als auch die Dolmetschleistung. Die Originalreden können über das Speech Repository der Europäischen Kommission aufgerufen werden. Es konnte abgeleitet werden, dass die Stenografie eine wertvolle Ergänzung für die Notation sein kann, wenn sie in Kombination mit anderen bekannten Notizentechniken angewendet wird. Eine frühzeitige Vermittlung der DEK in der Laufbahn von Dolmetscher:innen ist dabei als sinnvoll anzusehen, damit diese früh in ein individuell zu entwickelndes System eingebunden werden kann.:Inhaltsverzeichnis

Eidesstattliche Erklärung / In interpreting studies, there is considerable scepticism about the use of shorthand. While some researchers do see a possible benefit in shorthand when applied in consecutive interpreting, the vast majority is not recommending its use. The opinion that shorthand should only be used when preparing verbatim minutes is widely spread. This paper investigates to what extent shorthand, more precisely, the DEK (German Unified Shorthand), could still be of use in consecutive note-taking and thus, interpreting. The underlying analysis is based on several short speeches that were interpreted consecutively by the author over a period of approximately a year, while exclusively or partly using shorthand for note-taking. The analysis is mainly based on the so-called note-taking style (Notizschrift) which is a preliminary stage of the first official level of shorthand: correspondence style (Verkehrsschrift). The level of difficulty of the speeches was gradually increased over time. The focus is on the English-German language pair, although there are some particularities mentioned for Spanish-German as well. The notes themselves and the respective interpreting results form the basis of the analysis. The original speeches can be found in the Speech Repository of the European Commission. It was found that shorthand can indeed be a valuable complement to other note-taking techniques when used together with them. Therefore, it should be taught relatively early during an interpreter’s career to avoid having to later fit it in with an already existing system that each interpreter develops individually.:Inhaltsverzeichnis
