Vocabulary and grammar gain through computer
This study investigated the effects of computer educational games on Iranian elementary students' grammar and vocabulary gain. 58 female students ages 13-15 were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Both groups received the same classroom instruction, but the experimental group also played grammar and vocabulary games on the computer. Pre- and post-tests were administered and an independent samples t-test found no significant differences between the groups' test scores. However, the experimental group displayed much higher motivation and enthusiasm for learning with the computer games. This implies that computers can significantly increase learner motivation, even if they do not significantly improve test scores.

Autonomous Learners' Communication in Practice: Single and Dual Language Virt...
Hagley, E. (2014, September). Autonomous Learners' Communication in Practice: Single and Dual Language Virtual Exchange. Paper presented at the meeting of KAMALL Annual Conference 2014, Seoul, Korea.
[Abstract]
There are many reasons people choose to learn a foreign language. Chief among
them is to communicate with people from other countries. The U.S in particular,
but also many other countries, are putting considerable effort into linking their
students with students in other countries so they can communicate using the
power of the Internet. By doing so they are breaking down cultural and social
barriers that impede communication and mutual understanding, which are the
building blocks of successful economic development and peace. The English
language, in particular, gives learners the opportunity to participate in online
exchanges, as it is the language which is generally spoken around the world.
However, autonomous learners often can't safely find others who want to practice
with them. Of course there are options available such as Facebook and Skype but
these can be problematic, with privacy and safety issues abounding. Language
teachers want to offer their students a safe and reliable place to use their English
in real world situations, not just with classmates, but with people from other
countries too. How can they do this? With the advent of the WWW it is much
easier to accomplish.
This presentation will outline two means of opening up the standard classroom to
the world and giving autonomous learners the ability to use the language they
are studying in a number of real world settings. The first method is via Single
Language Virtual Exchange (SLVE). This is where all students participating in the
exchange are English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students and thus learn English
only. They use it to interact with students in other countries who are also
studying EFL. Examples outlined in this presentation include students in Japan
collaborating with students in Vietnam and Colombia. The model used, the many
benefits, along with some problems and a number of outcomes of the exchanges,
will be presented and discussed.
The second means of Telecollaboration to be described is the Dual Language
Virtual Exchange (DLVE). EFL students in Japan work on projects with Japanese as a Foreign Language (JFL) students in the U.S and Australia. This type of exchange
could, of course, be used in the respective countries with Korean or Chinese as a
Foreign Language students too. As with SLVE, DLVE has both benefits and
limitations, which will also be discussed.

Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
