in an effort to expand the disciplinary discussions on transfer in l2 writing and because most studies have focused on transfer as reuse and not as an adequate adaptation of writing knowledge in new contexts, the present study as the first of its kind aimed to explore the issue of adaptive transfer in an english for general academic purposes (egap) writing course. the study thus focused on type...

literature review indicates that systemic agricultural human resource development interventions are rarely carried out in developing countries, and limited knowledge exists about how successful they are. learning transfer is the generalization of material learned, such as skills acquired or knowledge gained in training, back to the job. the main aim of this study was to analyze factors influenc...

this article introduces the notions of functional space and concept as a way of knowledge representation and abstraction for reinforcement learning agents. these definitions are used as a tool of knowledge transfer among agents. the agents are assumed to be heterogeneous; they have different state spaces but share a same dynamic, reward and action space. in other words, the agents are assumed t...

the present study aimed at determining the relationship between learning styles and the effect of random and blocked practices on learning of badminton serve skills.  in this quasi-experimental study, 48 female high school students were randomly placed in four groups: 1. convergent learning style with random practice, 2. convergent learning style with blocked practice, 3. divergent learning sty...

Alliance raises many knowledge transfer and interfirm learning issues that have implications for how the alliance partners manage their cooperative learning activities in the alliance system. Many of these implications are grounded in the assumption that partners in the alliances have routines for transferring knowledge, learning, gaining management efficiencies. Thus organisations can support ...

objective(s): crocin influences many biological functions including memory and learning. the present study was aimed to investigate the effects of crocin on learning and memory impairments in streptozotocine-induced diabetic rats. materials and methods: diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal (ip) injection of streptozotocin (stz, 45 mg/kg). transfer latency (tl) paradigm in elevated plus-maze ...

the aim of this study was to compare the performance of analogy (implicit),explicit and discovery learning in the retention and transfer of a topspin shot underpsychological pressure. for this purpose, 36 volunteer high school students wererandomly allocated to three treatment conditions: explicit, analogy, and discoverylearning. after performing 300 trials in the acquisition phase, an immediat...

nowadays, it has demonstrated that viruses can be transmitted by water and foods. therefore, it causes the research to develop for detecting different viruses in water and foods. among foods, milk can transfer potentially pathogenic viruses. on the other hand, to achieve every method for recovery and extraction of viruses in raw milk it needs to know about impact of milk components on viruses. ...
