This document summarizes Elina Tapio's research on English language learning among Finnish Sign Language users from a multimodal perspective. Her research examines the use of English through fingerspelling words and interactions in online chats. She uses Mediated Discourse Analysis and Nexus Analysis to study two cases - informal online interactions and fingerspelling English words in sign language contexts. Her goal is to understand indigenous practices and how English is encountered in everyday life to inform teaching English to the deaf community.
This quasi experimental research involved two classes of students of a public junior high school in Sumedang. The aim is to discover if the use of song in teaching English can improve listening ability.
This document proposes making hotels smarter through new technologies and systems. It discusses transforming the hotel model by making the building, operations, and guest services smarter. This would improve resource efficiency, sustainability, and the guest experience. The document outlines a process for hotels to assess needs, identify solutions, evaluate technologies, and test the feasibility and profitability of becoming a smart hotel. Key areas that could be made smarter are the building infrastructure, operational systems, lighting, energy and water management, and connectivity between guests and hotel services.
The Effects of Fluency on Reading Comprehensionbelebih
This research proposal aims to study the relationship between reading fluency and comprehension. It hypothesizes that a balanced focus on both fluency and comprehension strategies, rather than emphasizing one over the other, could improve student reading ability. The study will be conducted with 12th grade students in Puerto Rico and evaluate the impact of different reading strategies on fluency and comprehension levels over one school year. The results are expected to show a correlation between fluency and comprehension, suggesting the need for a balanced reading curriculum. Further research will also be recommended due to the limited scope of this initial study.
The document summarizes a study examining the relationships between critical thinking, self-efficacy, self-regulated learning, and academic performance in university students. It discusses prior research showing these factors positively influence learning and performance. The study aimed to examine relationships between critical thinking, self-efficacy, self-regulated learning and course grades/GPA in nutrition and education students. Surveys were used to collect data and analyses found significant associations between self-efficacy and grades for nutrition majors and between critical thinking and grades.

This document provides an overview of a PhD research proposal investigating the feasibility of implementing academic honour codes in Australian universities. The summary includes:
1) The research will examine honour codes, which emphasize community, trust and mutual responsibility for upholding academic integrity. It will assess student and staff attitudes towards honour codes and their potential viability in Australia.
2) Current approaches to managing academic integrity are described as punitive, pedagogical, and focused on processes/policies. The proposal argues a participatory approach involving student participation is missing. Honour codes provide an existing framework for a participatory model.
3) If honour codes are to work in Australia, there needs to be buy-in from students, endorsement from
The document summarizes a research proposal that aims to determine if increasing student motivation to read independently correlates with improved test scores. The study will use a quasi-experimental design comparing MAP test results of students who participate in a reading motivation program versus a control group. If a correlation is found, it could provide evidence that improving reading motivation strategies positively impacts student academic success and literacy.
PhD Proposal Seminar in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies, M S University of Baroda. I presented PhD Seminar in front of PhD Committee, post graduate student, and research scholars. However, after interaction with various experts in USA, I have changed my methodology of my PhD research. To see revised PhD proposal check another presentation: PhD_Proposal Seminar_Revised_

Which environment and identity strengthens and weakens the sign language for ...elinatapio
The document discusses a study examining how the sign language identity of deaf people is strengthened or weakened in different environments. A questionnaire was administered to 65 deaf individuals about their experiences of equality in various communication settings such as work, social media, sports, and public transportation. The results showed that deaf people felt less equal in environments relying heavily on spoken and written language compared to those using sign language. Sign language identity was found to be strengthened in visual and interaction-based settings that facilitated the use of sign language.
