Guessing strategy constraints in the Bransford-Franks paradigm

The Bransford-Franks linear effect: Integration or artifact?

It was hypothesized that the Bransford-Franks linear effect is an artifact of the method of presentation of stimulus sentences and is unrelated to semantic processes. Ss were given sentences containing the same information in one of two ways. In a control condition, which was identical to the procedure used in earlier research, overlapping combinations of ideas were presented during learning an...

a paradigm shift away from method-wise teaching to strategy-wise teaching: an investigation of reconstructive strategy versus communicative strategy

چکیده: هدف اصلی این مطالعه ی توصیفی تحقیقی در حقیقت تلاشی پساروش-گرا به منظور رسیدن به نتیجه ای منطقی در انتخاب مناسبترین راهکار آموزشی بر گرفته از چارچوب راهبردی مطرح شده توسط والدمر مارتن بوده که به بهترین شکل سازگار و مناسب با سامانه ی آموزشی ایران باشد. از این رو، دو راهکار آموزشی، راهکار ارتباطی و راهکار بازساختی، برای تحقیق و بررسی انتخاب شدند. صریحاً اینکه، در راستای هدف اصلی این پژوهش، ر...

The Guessing Game : A Paradigm for Arti cial Grammar

In a guessing game, Ss reconstruct a sequence by guessing each successive element of the sequence from a nite set of alternatives, receiving feedback after each guess. An upper bound on Ss knowledge of the sequence is given by ^ H, the estimated entropy of the numbers of guesses. The method provides a measure of learning independent of material type and distractors, and the resulting data set i...

Guessing the Correct Inflectional Paradigm of Unknown Croatian Words

A real-life morphological analyzer must be able to handle properly the out-of-vocabulary words. We address the task of guessing the correct inflectional paradigm of unknown Croatian words. We frame this as a supervised machine learning problem: we train a model for deciding whether a candidate lemma-paradigm pair is correct based on a number of stringand corpus-based features. Our aim is to exa...
