Ārvalstu tiešo investīciju ietekmējošie faktori Latvijā

2015

Bakalaura darba „Ārvalstu tiešo investīciju ietekmējošie faktori Latvijā” galvenais mērķis ir izpētīt ienākošo ārvalstu tiešo investīciju ietekmējošos faktorus Latvijā. Balstoties uz zinātniskajiem pētījumiem, tiek noskaidroti iespējamie faktori, kas ietekmē ĀTI. Viena no darbā izmantotajām metodēm ir MKM daudzfaktoru regresijas analīze. Šajā analīzē tiek izmantoti ceturkšņu dati un aplūkotais periods ir no 2001. gada līdz 2014. gadam. Tiek noskaidrots, ka tirgus lielums, tirgus atvērtība un iegūldījumu atdeve pozitīvi ietekmē ienākošās ĀTI plūsmas Latvijā, kamēr tādi faktori kā inflācija, darbaspēka izmaksas, valūtas vērtība un ĀTI novēlotās vērtības netiek novērtēti kā statistiski nozīmīg…

AN ANALYSIS ON THE FDI FLOWS FROM EMERGING ECONOMIES TO EUROPE AND THEIR IMPACT

2014

After a concise setting of the context (by emphasizing on the FDI flows dynamics at the beginning of the 21st century through the lens of: annual inward and outward FDI flows between 2001 and 2013; annual contribution to IFDI flows and, respectively, to OFDI flows by group of countries – developed versus developing and transition ones), the paper analyzes the emerging market economies and the dynamics of their FDI flows (by using contextualization and comparisons). The main aspects targeted are: the dynamics of the outward FDI flows from EMEs comparative to the dynamics of the global outward FDI flows on annual basis, and the evolution of the specific weight of OFDI flows from EMEs in globa…

A Design-Oriented Analysis of Multimodality in English as a Foreign Language

2018

This empirical article investigates multimodality in English as a foreign language, both as seen in the use of multimodal texts as artefacts and pedagogical texts for learning, and through an analysis of the multimodal learning designs. We present observations from a year 10 classroom in Norway that worked with the novel The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian (Alexie, 2007). We explore a four-week teaching sequence, asking how different modes were involved when the educator designed literacy events around the novel, and how multimodality is present in the students’ meaning making. Our aim is to make explicit and discuss some of the silent literacy practices in English teaching at l…

Going into the real world : language learners' views on how foreign language teaching prepares them to use language in authentic situations

2014

Englannin kieli nähdään oikeutetusti maailmankielenä, sillä se on vakiinnuttanut asemansa kansainvälisen kommunikaation välineenä. Kielenkäyttö ja kommunikatiivisuus ovat olleet teoriassa vieraiden kielten opetuksen tärkeimpiä tavoitteita jo pitkään. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoitus oli tarkastella kielenoppijoiden näkemyksiä siitä, miten englannin kielen opetus suomalaisessa peruskoulussa valmistaa oppijoita käyttämään kieltä autenttisissa kielenkäyttötilanteissa peruskoulun jälkeen. Tarkoituksena oli myös selvittää, mitkä opetuksen osa-alueet lisäävät oppijoiden kykyä käyttää kieltä. Lisäksi tutkimus pyrki selvittämään, millaisia kielenkäyttötilanteita oppijat ovat kokeneet. Tutkimuksen tavoit…

Tiešsaistes Viktorīnas 6. Klases Skolēnu Gramatikas Zināšanu Pārbaudei Angļu Valodas Stundās

2020

Cilvēkam, lai spētu saprast kā runāt, lasīt, rakstīt un lasīt konkrētā svešvalodā, ir noderīgi zināt gramatiku un tās likumus. Diplomdarba autore pieredzēja, ka 6. klases skolēni spēja komunicēt, bet viņiem trūka gramatikas zināšanu. Tā kā pašlaik skolotāji izmanto dažādus interneta rīkus skolēnu zināšanu novērtēšanai, diplomdarba mērķis bija izpētīt, kā tiešsaistes viktorīnas varētu lietot, lai novērtētu 6. klases skolēnu angļu valodas gramatikas zināšanas. Mērķa sasniegšanai autore izmantoja gadījuma metodi. Pētījuma izlasē bija 48 skolēni no trim 6. klašu paralēlklasēm un viena angļu valodas skolotāja kādā no Rīgas sākumskolām. Autore intervēja vienu angļu valodas skolotāju un veidoja pē…

Comparison of Pitch Range in Finnish (L1) and Russian (L2)

2007

The aim of the present study is to investigate whether the pitch range of a speaker can vary according to the language he speaks. The hypothesis is tested on Finnish university students studying Russian as a foreign language before and after their stay in Russia. First, the global pitch range (max – min) is determined. Second, the pitch range in different types of utterances (declarative, question, exclamation) is examined by superimposing pitch contours. The results indicate that the learners have a narrower pitch range and a less variable pitch than native speakers both in L1 and L2. However, the results also suggest that L2 experience seems to help most students to produce a more native-…

Polish Adolescents’ Perceptions of English and Their Desire to Learn It

2016

In the process of foreign language learning the way in which students perceive the language may have a strong facilitative impact on their language acquisition process, especially when this perception is positive (Despagne, 2010). Unfortunately, it has not yet been clearly established whether the relationship between perceptions and foreign language achievement can be explained by the moderating power of the student’s desire to learn the foreign language. For the purpose of this paper it is hypothesized that the learner’s perception of the foreign language is strongly related to the desire to learn it, leading to higher achievement in cases of positive perception. In order to corroborate th…
