Using Mind Maps to Improve the Students’ Reading Skills at Dong Nai Technolog...ijtsrd
This is an experimental research about reading skills at Dong Nai Technology University. Its objectives are to find out students’ perception about reading and mind maps as well as to find out whether mind maps can help students in improving their reading skills or not. The data were collected through tests and questionnaires. The test included pre test and post test which were delivered before and after the experimental teaching for both control class and experimental class. The questionnaires were delivered only to experimental class before and after the treatment. The results of this study showed that mind maps technique really helped in improving the students’ reading skills.

Project Opera (Operation Rational): A Tool In Bridging The Learning GAPS In F...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : The study was conducted to determine the Mathematical performance of the students. The
study aimed to evaluate the effect of project opera in the mathematical performance of the students during pretest and post-test performance in fractions. The study employed the quasi -experimental one group-pre-test-posttest research design. The paired t-test was employed to establish the existence of significant difference between
pre-and post-test scores in fractions.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

8. Concept mapping reading comprehension strategy
It takes one concept as the center, and related
concepts and details emerge as the mapping
develops from the central to the external.

9. Computer-assisted concept mapping
Shawn(2000) undertook a case study of college
students with learning disabilities with respect
to their use of a meta-cognitive strategy relating
to concept mapping.

That is no significant between the score of Test 1 and Test2. But
the experimental group outperformed the control group in Test3.
20. 20
For poor readers, that is significant on Test 2 and Test 3.
For good readers, that is significant on Test 2, but not on Test 3.
