The document summarizes a study conducted by students at Spring Ridge Middle School to determine if using the LINCS strategy improves vocabulary retention and understanding. The study involved two classes, with one class using LINCS one week and the other class the next week. Results from pre-and post-tests and student surveys showed no significant differences in vocabulary scores between the classes and mixed reactions to LINCS. Observations found students were initially confused by LINCS and did not effectively use the strategy. The researchers concluded that LINCS may be better suited to high school students if more time is spent learning and consistently using the strategy.
Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.
Methodologies for teaching vocabulary itemsCarlos Alcívar
The importance of learning a new languague depends on the tools, didactic resources, strategies or methodologies teachers apply in a classroom. Therefore we should consider some of them.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
