1) The document summarizes the results of an online survey exploring factors that determine willingness to study abroad in teacher training programs between the University of Louisiana at Monroe (ULM) and Ehime University (EU) in Japan.
2) Key findings from the survey include that ULM students were more motivated by teaching practices while EU students preferred interactions, and that EU students reported more potential fears but also a greater willingness to study abroad.
3) Regression analysis found that for ULM students, overcoming language barriers and prior foreign experiences increased willingness, while for EU students, interests in speaking foreign languages, visiting foreign schools, and learning about foreign education systems increased willingness. Disliking travel decreased EU students' willingness.
The document analyzes technologies used on extreme learning websites. It identifies tools across five categories of extreme learning: language learning, outdoor/adventure learning, social change/global learning, virtual education, and other/miscellaneous. Across categories, websites utilized content delivery, interactive, and activity tools. Content was delivered through video, audio, texts and images while interactive tools included forums, chats, and social media. Activity tools enabled exercises, quizzes and progress tracking. The selection of technologies depended on the nature of education and intended purpose of each website.
Efficiency assessment of erasmus student officeeuteipir
This document evaluates the efficiency of the Erasmus Student Office and TEI of Piraeus University. It surveys students on their experiences in areas like administrative support, academics, and cultural/social activities. For administrative support, the Erasmus Office received positive ratings for personnel knowledge and helpfulness. Course schedules and professors' teaching received average ratings, while cultural/social experiences like entertainment options and living expenses received mixed reviews. Suggestions focused on improving cooperation between universities and accessing discounted activities.
The document discusses a study on the perception and challenges of senior high school students with modular distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. It found that students have an overall negative perception of modular learning and feel moderately challenged, particularly by the number of module activities and deadlines. While there were some differences by age and sex, most comparisons found no significant relationships between student profiles and their perception or challenges. The study concluded students need reasonable workloads and timelines to feel less overwhelmed with modular assignments.
1. The document discusses the assessment of English language proficiency based on a framework consisting of four competencies - linguistic, socio-linguistic, discursive, and strategic.
2. Assessment methods and rubrics are proposed, including holistic and analytic rating scales based on pragmatic, linguistic, and cultural criteria. Strategies for developing the four competencies like jigsaw reading and using newspapers are also outlined.
3. The reading process is divided into pre-reading, while-reading and post-reading stages. Techniques for each stage like previewing, predicting, skimming and scanning are described to aid comprehension and learning.
This document outlines the objectives, research questions, and significance of a study exploring the effectiveness of using computer game-based strategies for vocabulary learning among tertiary students in Malaysia. The study aims to: 1) explore the effectiveness of computer games for vocabulary learning, 2) investigate students' vocabulary learning strategies, and 3) examine student perceptions of using computer games. It poses research questions on learning strategies used, effects on performance, and student perceptions. The significance is that it could help identify effective vocabulary learning methods using computer games and autonomous learning.

1) A case study examined how a Japanese teacher learned while attending a master's program at an American university.
2) Through interviews over 6 months, the teacher showed changes in her self-motivating strategies and goal orientations. Initially anxious, she began imagining contributions to English education in Japan.
3) Her improved English performance and feedback from professors encouraged her development as a proactive teacher focused on personal growth rather than gaps in herself. The study suggests international experience can positively impact Japanese teachers' identities and skills.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.
