this study explores the effect of online annotations via interactive white boards (iwbs) on reading comprehension of iranian efl learners. to this aim, 60 students from a language institute were selected as homogeneous based on their performance on oxford placement test (2014).then, they were randomly assigned to 3 experimental groups of 20, and subsequently exposed to the research treatment af...

Linear codes with few weights are an important class of in coding theory and have attracted a lot attention. In this paper, we present several constructions q-ary linear two or three from vectorial dual-bent functions, where q is power odd prime p. The weight distributions the constructed completely determined. We illustrate that some known literature can be obtained by our constructions. speci...

We show how entanglement shared between encoder and decoder can simplify the theory of quantum error correction. The entanglement-assisted quantum codes we describe do not require the dual-containing constraint necessary for standard quantum error-correcting codes, thus allowing us to "quantize" all of classical linear coding theory. In particular, efficient modern classical codes that attain t...

This paper focuses attention on psychological evidence of relevance to advanced mathematical thinking. It considers Edelman’s theory of neural Darwinism and Paivio’s theory of dual coding and contemplates how they reveal different perspectives in mathematics education. The former is consonant with the notion of concept image with both supportive and conflicting mental resonances, the latter is ...

in many organizations, technology couldn’t improve efficiency and performance. hence in this subject, in-depth and targeted studies are needed to explore successful cases. one of these rare and successful cases is shaparak. shaparak is a new corporation in central bank of iran as a large and public organization that is one of the newest technological proceedings in the central bank. this study ...

Consumers increasingly use eWOM to make decisions about various products and services. However, few studies have investigated how different visual verbal cues affect the intention decision visit tourist destinations their attractions. The current study fills this gap by drawing on Dual Coding Theory investigating influence of consumers’ behavior. findings a field an experimental revealed that m...

Although much is known about the representation and processing of concrete concepts, knowledge of what abstract semantics might be is severely limited. In this article we first address the adequacy of the 2 dominant accounts (dual coding theory and the context availability model) put forward in order to explain representation and processing differences between concrete and abstract words. We fi...

Concrete words that are readily imagined are better remembered than abstract words. Theoretical explanations for this effect either claim a dual coding of concrete words in the form of both a verbal and a sensory code (dual-coding theory), or a more accessible semantic network for concrete words than for abstract words (context-availability theory). However, the neural mechanisms of improved me...
