The Effect of Task Type and Task Orientation on L2 Vocabulary Learning
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of meaning-focused versus form-focused input-oriented and output-oriented task-based instruction on elementary level Iranian EFL Learners’ vocabulary comprehension and recall. For this purpose, a sample of 120 male students from a private school in Tehran was selected through convenience sampling and based on availability. The participants were...
متن کاملEnd-to-End Optimization of Task-Oriented Dialogue Model with Deep Reinforcement Learning
In this paper, we present a neural network based task-oriented dialogue system that can be optimized end-to-end with deep reinforcement learning (RL). The system is able to track dialogue state, interface with knowledge bases, and incorporate query results into agent’s responses to successfully complete task-oriented dialogues. dialogue policy learning is conducted with a hybrid supervised and ...
متن کاملThe Involvement Load Hypothesis and Vocabulary Learning: The Effect of Task Types and Involvement Index on L2 Vocabulary Acquisition
This study builds on Laufer and Hulstijn’s (2001) motivational-cognitive construct of task-induced involvement in learning vocabulary and addresses itself to its strong claim that the depth of processing is the overriding factor in learning words. The paper first re-examines the effect of processing load and then of task type on the initial learning and retention of words. To do so, 60 EFL lear...
متن کاملMulti-Task Coalition Parallel Formation Strategy Based on Reinforcement Learning
Agent coalition is an important manner of agents’ coordination and cooperation. Forming a coalition, agents can enhance their ability to solve problems and obtain more utility. In this paper, a novel multi-task coalition parallel formation strategy is presented, and the conclusion that the process of multi-task coalition formation is a Markov Decision Process is testified theoretically. Moreove...
متن کاملTwo cases requiring external reinforcement in perceptual learning.
The role of external reinforcement is an issue of much debate and uncertainty in perceptual learning research. Although it is commonly acknowledged that external reinforcement, such as performance feedback, can aid in perceptual learning (M. H. Herzog & M. Fahle, 1997), there are many examples in which it is not required (K. Ball & R. Sekuler, 1987; M. Fahle, S. Edelman, & T. Poggio, 1995; A. K...
متن کاملL2 Vocabulary Learning and the Use of Reading Tasks: Manipulating the Involvement Load Index
As Schmidt (2008) states, deeper engagement with new vocabulary as induced by tasks clearly increases the chances of learning those words. This engagement is theoretically clarified by the involvement load hypothesis (ILH, Laufer and Hulstijn, 2001), based on which the involvement index of each task can be measured. The present study was designed to test ILH by evaluating the impact of 4 differ...
