Repair Theory: A Generative Theory of Bugs in Procedural Skills
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a generative theory of bugs. It claims that all bugs of D procedural skill con be derived by a highly constrained form of problem solving acting on incomplete procedures. These procedures are characterized by formal deletion operations that model incomplete learning and forgetting. The problem solver and the deletion operator have been constrained to make it impossible to derive “star-bugs”--xJgorithms that are so absurd that expert diagnosticians agree that the alogorithm will never be observed as o bug. Hence, the theory not only generates the observed bugs, it fails to generate star-bugs.

Cross-linguistic Validation of Processability Theory: The Case of EFL Iranian Students’ Speaking Skill
Abstract This study investigated the validity of processability theory proposed by Pienemann (1998/2015) among Iranian EFL learners’ oral performance. The theory defines six procedural stages for learners in the process of second language acquisition. In order to conduct the study, 10 intermediate EFL learners were selected based on their performance on Oxford Placement Test. Then, they partici...

متن کاملOn the Emergence of Scientific Grammar in Iran
Writing the grammar of a language is one of the most significant outputs of linguistic studies. In Iran, it is Avicenna (Ibn-e Sina) who is credited with the first such compilation of the Persian language. Understanding the weaknesses associated with the traditional trends of grammar writing in Iran, contemporary Iranian linguists adopted the modern Western approach following the Chomskyan Turn...
متن کاملThe Adaptation of English Initial Clusters by Persian Learners
This study presents an overview of the different strategies that Persian learners of English employ to deal with initial clusters. While vowel epenthesis appears to be the most widespread repair strategy to conform such clusters to Persian phonotactics, the location of the epenthetic vowel varies. In this paper, we investigate two approaches that seek to explain the epenthetic site. The first o...
