Syntactic Criterial Features in Assessing Written Performance in English and French

2014

Promocijas darba „Sintaktiskās kriteriālās pazīmes angļu un franču valodas rakstveida snieguma vērtēšanā” teorētiskajā daļā tiek analizētas dažādas pieejas valodas vienību apguves izpētē, kā arī aktualizēti galvenie principi rakstveida snieguma vērtēšanā un rezultātu pielīdzināšanā Eiropas kopīgajām pamatnostādnēm. Pamatojoties uz mūsdienu deskriptīvajās gramatikās lietoto angļu un franču valodas sintaktisko struktūru kontrastīvās analīzes rezultātiem, promocijas darba empīriskajā daļā tiek veikta angļu un franču valodas apguvēju lietoto sintakstisko struktūru kvantitatīvā un kvalitatīvā analīze. Iegūtie dati tiek izmantoti, lai izstrādātu katram valodas apguves līmenim (A1 – C2) atbilstoša…

Implizite Sprachmischung in Kontaktidiomen zweisprachiger Oberschlesier

2020

Early language contact research often focused on the so-called explicit language mix-ing, where the elements of one language were clearly present in the second language. This article is devoted to the less frequent manifestations of the so-called implicit lan-guage mixing, where only structures of one language are used, whereas the means of expression are taken from the other language. The research corpus is made up of state-ments by bilingual Upper Silesians, who were interviewed as part of a project on time witnesses accounts. The informants live in an ethnically and nationally heterogeneous region, whose inhabitants have different language repertoires depending on factors such as place o…

"Me ollaan mukana tässä experimentissä" : lingvististiska resurser och språkpraktiker i tvåspråkiga ungdomssamtal i Haparanda, Stockholm och Helsingf…

2017

The thesis explores bilingual adolescents’ language use, linguistic resources, and language practices in interaction at three junior high schools in Haparanda, a Swedish town on the country’s northeastern border with Finland. A comparison is also made with interaction among bilingual adolescents at two Sweden-Finnish junior high schools in Stockholm and at one Swedish-speaking junior high school in Helsinki. The aim of the study is to increase our knowledge of bilingual adolescents’ interaction practices and language repertoires, i.e. translanguaging, in interaction. The primary data consists of close to eleven hours of video- and audio-recorded informal group and pair conversations. The da…

Contacte lingüístic entre el català i el castellà a la València dels segles XVIII i XIX

1996

Joaquim Martí Mestre studies several phenomena of linguistic contact in the valencian context of 18th and 19th centuries, such as linguistic interference, code switching, code mixing, as well as the problem of the functions, conditions and sphere of use of the languages, Catalan and Castilian in this case, and linguistic attitudes and social values related to each language in contact.

The Linguistic Landscape of the Valencian Community: A Comparative Analysis of Bilingual and Multilingual Signs in Three Different Areas

2019

During the last decades, the promotion of multilingualism has been key when designing linguistic policies in Europe. Previous research studies have focused on how languages are employed in fields such as education, media, and urban sites, among others. Bearing all this in mind, the aim of this paper is to analyse the linguistic landscapes of three municipalities located in a bilingual region in Spain, that of the Valencian Community. Thus, issues such as language contact, language dominance, and the languages used by a number of institutions on private and public signs were examined. As for the method, over 140 pictures of language signs were taken in order to examine language contact, lang…

El Discurso del profesorado de educación musical en la innovación educativa con tic: posicionamientos en la evaluación del software tactus.

2014

This paper presents teachers positioning analysis around the assessment of ad hoc software designed for learning musical rhythm called “Tactus”. The main objective is to study the teachers speeches and opinions in software assessment, which is built through the speeches analysis (n = 115) in 8 focus groups, with a descriptive model of 5 clusters. The study gives us a diverse, varied and a full picture in educational software evaluation trough teachers’ discourses analysis. En este estudio empírico analizamos los discursos y posicionamientos del profesorado en torno a la evaluación de un software diseñado ad hoc, para el aprendizaje del ritmo musical denominado Tactus. El objetivo de investi…

Why do female and male taekwondo athletes win the bout? An analysis based on the Olympic weight category and the result of the bout

2020

Combat sports such as taekwondo, where athletes compete against an opponent require control of technique and tactics, as well as knowing the optimal performance of opponents to win the bout. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to analyse the Olympic competitors (London Olympic Games), according to the weight category (fly, feather, light and heavy) and according to the performance in their fighting (winner vs. loser) in each gender. An observational methodology was used, following a nomothetic, follow-up and multidimensional design of 302 individual performances. The statistical analysis used an ANOVA and T Student test for comparing frequencies. The results obtained indicate signif…

Application of Tuning Fork Sensors for In-situ Studies of Dynamic Force Interactions Inside Scanning and Transmission Electron Microscopes

2012

Mechanical properties of nanoscale contacts have been probed in-situ by specially developed force sensor based on a quartz tuning fork resonator (TF). Additional control is provided by observation of process in scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). A piezoelectric manipulator allows precise positioning of atomic force microscope (AFM) probe in contact with another electrode and recording of the TF oscillation amplitude and phase while simultaneously visualizing the contact area in electron microscope. Electrostatic control of interaction between the electrodes is demonstrated during observation of the experiment in SEM. In the TEM system the TF senso…
