Syn.ant vs. collocation
This document summarizes a research study that examines the effects of different contextual clues - synonyms/antonyms vs. collocations - on vocabulary learning among young English language learners. The study involves 60 students divided into a control group and two experimental groups. One experimental group will learn new words using synonyms/antonyms, while the other uses collocations. Pre- and post-tests will measure the students' vocabulary gains, and statistical analysis will determine if one contextual clue approach leads to significantly better learning outcomes than the other. The goal is to identify the most effective strategy for helping EFL students learn new vocabulary.

This document summarizes a study that investigated factors contributing to speaking-in-class anxiety among Chinese ESL learners in Hong Kong. The study involved a questionnaire completed by 313 first-year university students. Factor analysis identified five main factors: speech anxiety and fear of negative evaluation, comfortableness speaking with native speakers, negative attitudes towards English class, negative self-evaluation, and fear of failing class. The results showed that negative self-evaluation was an important factor leading to speaking anxiety. The conclusion suggests these findings could apply to other non-Chinese language learners as well.

This thesis examines Thai students' errors in using English adjectives. It analyzes assignments from 30 Thai students to classify types of grammatical errors and occurrences of each. The most common errors were treating adjectives as unmarked verbs, using adjectives with modal verbs, negation, intensifiers, comparatives, infinitives, aspects, and changing forms. The results show that Thai students mistakenly treat English adjectives as verbs by placing them in co-occurrences typical of Thai or applying English rules to adjectives in the same way as Thai verbs. This confirms that the students' errors stem from interference from their first language.

Collection framework
The Collection Framework consists of three main parts: interfaces that define abstract data types, implementations of those interfaces, and algorithms that can operate on the interfaces and implementations. It includes core interfaces like Collection, List, Set, and Map as well as specialized interfaces like SortedSet and SortedMap. Implementations like ArrayList, LinkedList, HashSet, TreeSet, HashMap and TreeMap provide concrete versions of the interfaces. The Collections and Arrays classes contain predefined algorithms that support the framework.
Connectors and-linkers-3
This document discusses various time linkers and sequencers used to connect elements within and between sentences. It provides examples of linkers like when, whenever, while, as long as, until, as soon as, before, and after, explaining how they indicate the timing or order of events. It also discusses sequencers like firstly, secondly, and finally that are used to show the chronological succession of a series of events, such as when telling a story or giving instructions.
Adverbial conjuctions
Here are 3 possible expressions of relief for the situations:
1. You say to your mother "Thank goodness I've finished all my homework, especially the math assignment. It was such a relief to get it done."
2. You say to the person on the bus "Whew, I'm so relieved we aren't late. That would not have been good since the teacher is very strict about tardiness. It's a relief to make it on time."
3. In response to doing well on a difficult test, you say "I'm really glad I studied hard for this test. It was challenging but I'm relieved I think I did well. What a relief to be finished!"
Clauses
This document defines clauses and describes the two main types: independent and dependent clauses. It provides examples of each. Independent clauses can stand alone as a sentence, while dependent clauses cannot. There are three types of dependent clauses: noun clauses, adjective clauses, and adverb clauses. Examples of each type are given. The document also lists related topics and provides links to free online grammar lessons.
Sentence structures
Sentence is a group of words which has at least one subject and one verb. There are four sentence structures:

The document discusses conjunctions and causal relationships. It provides examples of sentences using "because" to explain the cause of an initial idea, such as "Mom was upset because I didn’t get a good grade on my exam" and "Gordon wasn’t at home because he didn’t answer the phone." Numbers are also listed with no other context provided.
Correlative conjuctions
Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions that join equal grammatical elements and give equal weight to both elements. Some common correlative conjunction pairs are either/or, neither/nor, not only/but also, whether/or, and both/and. Correlative conjunctions reinforce that there are two equal ideas or elements being joined in a sentence.
Linking words
Linking words are used to connect ideas when writing. There are three main types: conjunctions, which join two parts of a sentence; sentence connectors, which link ideas between sentences; and subordinators, which join clauses. Conjunctions include words like "and" and "but". Sentence connectors are placed at the beginning of sentences to introduce, order, or contrast ideas. Common connectors include "furthermore" and "moreover". Subordinators join dependent and independent clauses and include words like "although" and "because".
Sentence elements
This document defines and provides examples of the five basic elements of a sentence: subjects, verbs, objects, complements, and adverbials. It explains that a subject is the person or thing performing the action of the sentence. A verb expresses the action or state of being. Objects receive the action of verbs. Complements add more meaning about the subject or object. Adverbials modify verbs or add circumstances. Examples are given for each element to illustrate their usage in simple sentences.
Articles
The document discusses the usage of articles (a, an, the) in English. It explains that "the" is used to refer to something that has already been mentioned or is specific. "A/an" is used the first time something is mentioned or when it is unspecific. The zero article is used with plural nouns, uncountable nouns, proper nouns, languages, most place names, and abstract nouns.
Sentence patterns

This document discusses a study that promoted learner autonomy for self-correction in English writing among Thai university students. The study engaged 32 students in interactive writing tasks that required self-evaluation, peer review, and self-correction of drafts using technology without teacher feedback. Results showed significant improvement in writing scores from pre-to-post-tests. A questionnaire found that while students were unsure initially if they could correct their own mistakes, many believed they could become better writers by using strategies and technology for self-directed learning. The study suggests promoting autonomy this way is feasible but future research should include strategy training and measure autonomy gains directly.
Lexicography
Lexicography involves two related disciplines: practical lexicography which is the craft of compiling dictionaries, and theoretical lexicography which analyzes dictionary components and structures. Practical lexicography involves selecting words and definitions for dictionaries, while theoretical lexicography develops principles to improve future dictionaries. Corpora are important resources used to produce dictionaries and grammar books, and help ensure entries are current, reliable and user-friendly.
Research article main components
This study examined the impact of pre-reading and during-reading questions on vocabulary learning and retention in EFL classes. 88 intermediate English students were divided into two groups - one received texts with pre-reading questions and the other with inserted questions. Both groups read passages and completed vocabulary tests after each session for 5 sessions. After 2 weeks, a final vocabulary test was administered to measure retention. Results showed that the group with inserted questions performed better on vocabulary tests after each session and on the final retention test, rejecting the hypotheses that question type would not impact learning or retention. The findings suggest that during-reading questions lead to greater vocabulary gains and retention than pre-reading questions.

The next question they had is whether to host the application on premise or cloud. For this, they had multiple discussions with CIO and IT staff evaluating the pros and cons of application hosting on cloud.
In requirements gathering phase Business Owners are involved with application analysts, Application architects to captured requirements. Application architect will determine if a requirement can be met from the application. Requirements are then converted into use cases and Requirement documents. Requirements include both Functional and Non-functional. Requirements play a crucial role as they guide developers on what to code. It will be a huge burden for an organization if requirements change constantly. Hence, Business and IT should spend most of their times to gather requirements.
Apart from Business owners and systems analysts, developers should be involved in development phase. Once the application is developed Quality assurance teams are used to see if the Application is functionally stable i.e. they make sure that all the Requirements gathered are covered by test case. For non-functional requirements security tests, Load test and performance tests are conducted. A Release Manager is also needed for accepting the application into production Environment. Proper requirements will come in handy for success of a project. Also, documentation like Requirements traceability matrix will ensure that each requirement is mapped to tasks and Test scripts.

The Debate

L2 writing classes.
Argued that corrective feedback regarding students’ grammar on writing
assignments was not only ineffective but potentially harmful.
Ferris (1999). The case for grammar correction in L2
writing classes: A response to Truscott.
Strongly objected to Truscott’s claims, stating that such claims are more
harmful to students than error correction.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
