Memorisation Strategies to Enhance English Grammar Acquisition in Form 7

2021

Diplomdarba autors savā darba pieredzē ir novērojis, ka daudzi skolēni cīnās ar atmiņas pielietošanu, lai uzlabotu angļu valodas gramatikas apguvi. Skolēniem bieži ir grūtības atcerēties konkrētu faktisko informāciju, piemēram, datumus vai gramatikas likumus, kā arī viņiem ir grūtības atcerēties materiālus, kurus viņi apskatījuši iepriekš mācību gada laikā vai pagājušajā gadā. Skolēni var arī nespēt atbildēt uz konkrētiem jautājumiem, kas viņiem tiek uzdoti stundā, pat ja viņu vecāki un / vai skolotāji domā, ka skolēni zina šo informāciju. Angļu valodas stundā ir jāizmanto iegaumēšanas stratēģijas, lai kultivētu skolēnu atmiņu un uzlabotu mācību procesu. Diplomdarba mērķis ir uzzināt, kā ie…

L'auxiliation en Italien

1997

This article is based on the results of a study dealing with the various classes of Italian verbs (modals, aspectuels, verbs of movement, progressives, avere da + infinitive) that attract the clitic pronouns from their base position. Their "climbing" is accounted for by excluding any sentence boundary in the domain of the clitic movement. Since this is exactly the traditional structure of the verb-auxiliary relationship, the following hypothesis is made: the verb phrases of a single sentence comprise, in addition to the main verb, an indefinite number of complementary verbs (the ones listed above plus the temporal/aspectual and passive auxiliaries). As a result, their distribution becomes u…

“English Self-Taught”: Self-Study Guides for Polish Learners of English (1860–1945)

2013

The history of teaching English as a foreign language (EFL) has been relatively well described in specialist literature, yet the beginnings of EFL teaching to Poles have not received much scholarly attention. One of the consequences of this state of research is that a proportion of pre-1945 EFL textbooks aimed at native speakers of Polish remain unknown. The present paper seeks to shed some light on self-study books, popular nineteenth- and twentieth-century materials intended for self-instruction; relatively cheap and aimed at the mass market, they claimed to offer effective ways of teaching foreign language skills in a short period of time. I will analyze five selected books belonging to …
