Technology has always played a key role in General and ESP (English for Specific Purposes)language learning and teaching. Currently the range of technologies being used in classrooms all over the globe for Language Learning and Teaching (LLT) has become very diverse, and some which have become central to language practice are briefly described in this paper. Since English is the most commonly ‘...

background: testing and teaching are interrelated in education process; using various kinds of tests, teachers are able to anticipate the strong and weak points of learning in students, their progress and their accomplishment. the influence of test on teaching and learning is commonly referred to as washback. testing washback is a twisted concept that becomes even more complex under a various i...

Gaea[NNHF] is an instance of organic programming methodology, as Smalltalk is of object oriented programming. In the case of object oriented programming, there are combinations with procedural language (Smalltalk, C++), functional programming (LOOPS), and logic programming (ESP[Chi83]). The same variety of combinations are possible in organic programming. Gaea is a logic programming language.

In this paper, we present a methodology for mapping an Embedded Signal Processing (ESP) application onto HPC platforms such that the throughput performance is maximized. Previous approaches used a linear pipelined execution model which restrict the mapping choices. We show that the \optimal" solution obtained under that model can be improved, using the proposed execution model. Based on the new...

assessing learners' needs is an integral part of any curriculum and course design , namely english for specific purposes (esp), syllabus design, materials development, teaching methods and testing issues. critical approach to needs analysis, which is a relatively recent approach, acknowledges the rights of different stakeholders including teachers, students and administrators in the process of ...

Abstract. Online classes have been rampant since the global spread of COVID-19. ESP teaching in higher education institutions is no exception, following national government’s call to employ an online mode teaching. Although technology has long used facilitate teaching-learning process, practice not without problems. Thus, this study was aimed at investigating teachers’ strategies make effective...

In the field of English for Specific Purposes (ESP), as in any other type interlanguage, phraseology contributes significantly to successful academic writing (Biber and Barbieri 2007). For particular learner varieties, such Romanian English, few studies have examined formulaic sequences (Hyland 2008), mainly focusing on lexico-grammatical patterns (Chitez 2012, 2014). The proposed paper investi...

Lexical approaches to Academic and Technical English have been well documented by scholars from as early as Cowie (1978). More recent work demonstrates how computer technology can assist in the effective analysis of corpus-based data (Cowie, 1998; Pedersen, 1995; Scott, 2000). For teaching purposes, this recent research has shown that the distinction between common coreness and diversity is a c...
