This document contains a list of phobias for the reader to search for in a puzzle including: acrophobia (fear of heights), aerophobia (fear of flying), androidophobia (fear of androids), aquaphobia (fear of water), arachnophobia (fear of spiders), claustrophobia (fear of confined spaces), cynophobia (fear of dogs), and ophidiophobia (fear of snakes).
This document outlines a study on the effects of graded reading on secondary school ESL students' vocabulary literacy. It discusses issues with low literacy rates in Malaysia and lack of student interest in reading. The study aims to see if graded reading can increase vocabulary, help students comprehend new words, and motivate independent reading. It will involve pre- and post-tests of vocabulary and reading with low proficient students in Negeri Sembilan schools. The significance is that graded reading has not been applied at the secondary level in Malaysia previously. Limitations include only sampling certain schools and not accounting for individual student attitudes.
The document discusses an overview of an 18-hour per week postgraduate course designed for Asian and South American students. The course focuses on developing reading, writing, listening and speaking skills for legal issues and includes no evaluations, but provides one-on-one feedback in writing. It is co-taught by a lawyer and EAP teacher with a language teacher and incorporates workshops, class visits, films and field trips. Key topics addressed are professionalism versus assumption, and values and behaviors of learners versus the legal profession and community.
This multiple regression analysis examined how motivation, grades in high school, parent's education, and gender predict mathematics achievement. The analysis found that the combination of these variables significantly predicted math achievement, with grades in high school having the strongest influence followed by motivation and gender. Specifically, the model explained 45.1% of the variance in math achievement, and grades in high school, motivation, and gender were individually significant predictors.
A multiple regression analysis was conducted to predict mathematics achievement from motivation, competence, pleasure, parental education levels, gender, and grades in high school. Descriptive statistics showed the highest mean was for grades in high school. Correlation analyses found all variables except pleasure were correlated with mathematics achievement. The regression model significantly predicted mathematics achievement, explaining 46.2% of its variance. Specifically, higher grades in high school and male gender were associated with higher mathematics achievement. Grades in high school made the largest unique contribution to explaining mathematics achievement.
I think this is an excerpt I took from someone online.. If it is yours sorry.. Plz PM to take it down. For now, I am just leaving it here to share with other fellow friends who are developing themselves professionally. TQ
This document provides an overview of a study that aims to improve the English vocabulary of low proficiency Malaysian vocational students through the use of songs. The study will use a quasi-experimental design with pre- and post-tests to evaluate changes in students' vocabulary sizes and oral production abilities before and after a series of 9 English lesson plans that incorporate popular songs. The conceptual framework draws on theories of second language acquisition like Krashen's Input Hypothesis and Output Hypothesis to support the hypothesis that exposure to songs can increase students' confidence and ability to communicate in English through comprehensible input and practice with oral production.
The document discusses the importance of using proper forms and functions in communication to avoid miscommunication.
