Pretask modelling: Encouraging learning opportunities in collaborative tasks
(2017)
This study examined the effect of pretask modelling on the collaborative learning
opportunities that arise when 30 Basque-Spanish bilingual learners of English as a
foreign language (EFL) were engaged in two collaborative ...
The role of task repetition in L2 acquisition
(2017-11-24)
The use of tasks in language teaching has been demonstrated to be beneficial as it provides learners with the opportunity to develop their interlanguage by means of conversational interaction. However, as tasks are ...
The potential of writing for L2 learning: Collaborative writing
This TFG focuses on how collaborative writing in an L2 can be an effective opportunity for L2 acquisition. For that, it revises six pieces of research that investigate how different variables (such as proficiency, corrective ...
“Using the properly”: L1 Transfer in the Acquisition of Definite Articles in English by Spanish speakers
The study of L2 article acquisition has become an important area in the cross-linguistic field.
Articles have
been classified as one of the most difficult features in English, as
they are
employed very ...
Helmholtz Fermi surface harmonics: an efficient approach for treating anisotropic problems involving Fermi surface integrals
(IOP Publishing, 2014-06-09)
We present a new efficient numerical approach for representing anisotropic physical quantities and/or matrix elements defined on the Fermi surface (FS) of metallic materials. The method introduces a set of numerically ...
Acoustic analysis of EFL speech production corpora according to the Speech Learning Model
(2020-05-20)
It is widely accepted that L1 influences the acquisition of L2 phonology during Second Language Acquisition. Models such as the Speech Learning Model (SLM) have tried to explain this process by defining bi-directional ...
The use of models as written corrective feedback in spontaneous EFL writing
(2018)
While a number of studies have investigated the noticing function of output, the language learning potential of writing and the way in which written corrective feedback (CF) can promote language acquisition have been ...
The acquisition of complex wh-questions in L2
The main goal of this paper is to review how complex wh-questions are acquired in the
process of learning a second language (L2). Adopting a generative perspective, the
paper will consider experimental studies that have ...
Doxorubicin-induced DNA Damage Causes Extensive Ubiquitination of Ribosomal Proteins Associated with a Decrease in Protein Translation
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2018-12)
Protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) play a central role in the DNA damage response. In particular, protein phosphorylation and ubiquitination have been shown to be essential in the signaling cascade that coordinates ...
Using nodal coordinates as variables for the dimensional synthesis of mechanisms
(Springer, 2018-06)
The method of the lower deformation energy has been successfully used for the synthesis of mechanisms for quite a while. It has shown to be a versatile, yet powerful method for assisting in the design of mechanisms. Until ...
