USING THE COMMUNICATIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING METHOD TO IMPROVE THE STUDENTS’ ENGLISH SPEAKING FLUENCY

The research entitled “Using the Communicative Language Teaching Method to Improve the Students’ English Speaking Fluency” aims to examine the implementation of CLT method in the classroom, figure out the students’ improvement in English speaking fluency, and reveal the influencing factors after the implementation of CLT method. This research used the quasi experimental design. The subjects of this research were the eleventh grade students of SMAN 4 Purwokerto in the academic year of 2019/2020. The population was 340 students divided into 10 classes. The samples of this research were two classes: XI MIPA 1 as the experimental group and XI MIPA 3 as the control group. The data were collected from observations, questionnaires, and tests. The result of this research shows that the implementation of CLT method was successful. It can be seen from the observation sheet that the teacher followed the implementation of CLT method, such as the teacher had prepared the materials well; the materials were approved by the teacher which based on the syllabus and curriculum; the teacher clearly gave the instructions; the teacher asked the students to speak freely, encouraged the students to speak in English, fully spoke in English, and provided the appropriate tasks to improve the students’ speaking fluency. Furthermore, the students’ English speaking fluency has improved. It means that the implementation of CLT method has significant effect that the alternative hypothesis (Hi) is accepted. The result of questionnaires and observations show that the factors influencing the implementation of CLT method were cognitive, linguistic, and affective factors.
A Study of College English Teaching in Higher Vocational Colleges under the Guidance of “Professional Ability Development”

For higher vocational college students, English subject is a required course, although it does not belong to the category of professional courses, the cultivation of students’ English ability for the future development is of great significance. In the process of actual education and teaching, however, many colleges and universities ignore the teaching value of English subject. It is difficult to train students comprehensively as English teaching quality is not high. Under the background of the new era, it has put forward higher requirements for the English ability of social talents. In education and teaching, the effective training of students’ English ability can develop their professional ability and promote their further development. Therefore, in the process of education and teaching, teachers should effectively carry out English teaching in vocational colleges and universities based on the concept of “vocational ability development”, to cultivate students’ English ability, and promote students’ all-round development.

Evaluating Virtual Reality as Environment for Adults’Second Language Learning: A Literature Review

Linguistic environments have always been considered as an important factor in second language acquisition. According to Ortega (2009), “the five environmental ingredients that together contribute to (but do not guarantee) optimal L2 learning are: acculturated attitudes, comprehensible input, negotiated interaction, pushed output, and a capacity, natural or cultivated, to attend to the language code, not just the message”.(p. 79)[1] Unfortunately, these ideal language learning conditions are not always readily available to SLLs. On the other hand, the rapid development and popularization of computer-assessed language teaching (CALL) and multimedia language environments have led to great attention in language learning in Virtual reality environments (VRE) in the past few years. Virtual reality (VR) is defined as a system designed to bring a simulated real-life experience, providing terrain and physical effects to give users an immersive feel. Because of its function, VR is being rapidly introduced by researchers and educational practitioners to promote a real, immersive learning environment that allows them to continually explore the possibilities and effects of its application in second language learning.

Localized Module in Promoting Philippine-Hilot in Teaching Wellness Massage And The Student’s Performance in TLE 10: Input to New Delivery Modes of Instruction

The purpose of this study was to promote localized Philippine-Hilot in teaching Wellness Massage as a new delivery mode of instruction and its contribution on the improvement of students’ performance in TLE 10. This is descriptive correlational research which aimed to determine the effectiveness of instructional module among the 77 wellness massage students at Col. Lauro D. Dizon Memorial Integrated High School. The self-made questionnaire was used in this study and validated by experts in the field of wellness massage. The responses were generated through online survey. The statistical methods used are the mean and standard deviation. It was administered for the perception of the respondents on the module as to objectives, introduction, learning content and activities. To determine the significant relationship between the perception of the respondents on the components of wellness massage and their performance as to written examination and practicum, Pearson-Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient (Pearson r) was employed, testing its significant level at p &lt; .05. The study revealed that the respondents were mostly 15 to 17 years of age, male, whom fathers were employed, and mothers were unemployed and or housewife, parents are high school graduates and with lower than Php 5,000 monthly income. The result also shows that majority of the students have an excellent level of performance with a grade of above 90 in both written and practical examinations. The results indicate that majority performed well in the test on localized module. There is a significant relationship between the components and format of the module in wellness massage and students’ performance in both written and practicum on the module. The hypothesis stating that the perception of the respondents on the components and format of the module in wellness massage in terms of objectives, learning content, activities and their performance is not significantly related to written examination and practicum is not sustained. The assessment tool, on the other hand, indicates no significant relationship in terms of written examination, hence the hypothesis in this respect is sustained.
The Relationship of School Family Engagement Program and Parental Involvement in a Public Junior High School

Motivating parents and families to be involved in their children’s academic lives is a necessary component of literacy instruction. The study focused on family engagement and parental involvement. The researcher selected 300 parents among Grade VII students from Mambugan National High School, District 1 in Antipolo City to assess their awareness about the school’s family engagement program related to school climate, student learning, communication, volunteering, and decision making. It also aimed to determine the extent of their involvement in terms of the aspects enumerated, to test the relationship between their awareness on school family engagement programs and the extent of their involvement, and to use the results as inputs in developing a parent training program for family engagement. The researcher used a two-part Questionnaire Checklist assessing how parents perceive the school family engagement activities and rating the parents’ involvement in school family engagement program. Through data analysis using weighted mean and Pearson’s r, findings revealed that both the parents’ perception on school family engagement program and the extent of parental involvement yielded Student Learning as a top priority and the parents’ ultimate reason when they engage themselves in school-initiated programs that need their support. Furthermore, this study found out that there is a significant relationship between their awareness about school family engagement programs and the extent of their involvement in terms of school climate, student learning, communication, volunteering, and decision making.
Parenting Amidst the Pandemic: The Case of Parental Involvement in Adolescents’ Reading Engagement and Modular Distance Learning

This qualitative study was aimed at understanding and analyzing the roles of parents in the reading engagement and modular distance learning of their children, the challenges met, and the approaches employed in their children’s learning activities in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. To gain a profound understanding of the phenomenon, a case study method was used. Eight parents of Junior High School students served as the respondents, majority of whom attained high school education and were from lowincome families. Semi-structured interviews were personally carried out to gather valuable information. Thematic analysis was applied in dealing with the data obtained from personal dialogues. Generated themes revealed that parents carried out roles such as rule-setter, monitor, giver of attention, encouragement and inspiration, and provider. However, parental involvement in these trying times was tough because of limited vocabulary, scarce knowledge about the lessons, and inadequate English communication and comprehension skills. Prevalence of poverty hampered the parents in intellectually assisting their children, which eventually led them to utilize dispensed parenting approaches like relying on Google Translate to interpret unfamiliar words, using the Internet to look for needed information, consulting the dictionary to unlock vocabulary issues, and seeking the help of more knowledgeable relatives. This study established that parenting amidst the pandemic is an arduous task, especially in the economically disadvantaged families. Incidences of low self-efficacy and weak parental motivation trigger children’s poor regard for learning and hamper their drive to engage in reading activities that are deemed helpful in their literacy advancement. It is therefore suggested that a family literacy program be developed and be introduced to bolster a solid home-school partnership. Through this, appreciation for reading and learning will be inculcated in the minds of the adolescent learners.
Information seeking behaviour among health professionals in public health facilities in Garissa County, Kenya

Purpose: The need to become informed and knowledgeable which leads to “information-seeking behaviour processes” is important among qualified health professionals who have vital roles in achieving the health goals of a given country. the general objective of this study was to assess information-seeking behaviour among health professionals in public health facilities in Garissa County&#x0D; Design/ Methodology/Approach: The study used a cross-sectional study design employing mixed methods of data collection. Stratified sampling was used to select a study sample of 222 health professionals to participate in the study while purposive sampling was used to select participants for Key Informant Interviews and Focus group discussions. Descriptive and multinomial logistical regression was used to analyze quantitative data using SPSS version 20 while thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative data from Key Informant Interviews and Focus group discussions.&#x0D; Findings: Results showed that minority of health professionals (86%) sought information only when and work experience (P=0.013) had a statistically significant relationship with information-seeking behaviour. Among the facility factors, workload (P=0.000), and information sharing (P=0.0000) had a statistically significant relationship with information-seeking behaviour. Among technological factors, computer proficiency (P=0.000), ability to search information from the internet (P=0.000, ability to analyze and interpret digital data (P=0.000) and internet connectivity (P=0.001) had a statistically significant relationship with information-seeking behaviour.&#x0D; Contribution to policy and practice: the study is of importance because there is a need for both national and county governments (including other key stakeholders) to develop supportive policies and programs which encourage a culture for improved information-seeking behaviour among health professionals by promoting initiatives that address the key issues influencing information-seeking behaviour.
Short Literature Review for Visual Scene Understanding

Abstract Individuals are highly accurate for visually understanding natural scenes. By extracting and extrapolating data we reach the highest stage of scene understanding. In the past few years it proved to be an essential part in computer vision applications. It goes further than object detection by bringing machine perceiving closer to the human one: integrates meaningful information and extracts semantic relationships and patterns. Researchers in computer vision focused on scene understanding algorithms, the aim being to obtain semantic knowledge from the environment and determine the properties of objects and the relations between them. For applications in robotics, gaming, assisted living, augmented reality, etc a fundamental task is to be aware of spatial position and capture depth information. First part of this paper focuses on deep learning solutions for scene recognition following the main leads: low-level features and object detection. In the second part we present extensively the most relevant datasets for visual scene understanding. We take into consideration both directions having in mind future applications.
Electoral fraud and democratic election: a comparison of Nigeria 2019 elections and United States 2020 elections

The 2020 elections in the United States’ 2020 elections were full of controversies despite recording the highest voters turnout since 1900. These electoral disputes are due to claims made by the then President, Donald Trump. Though the supreme court dismissed the claims of electoral fraud, the impact has left the American citizens more polarised at the national, state, and congressional levels. Scholars have argued that electoral fraud has existed since modern democratic development in the mid and late 19th century and is still occasionally an issue in some well-established democracies, while other scholars are not in support of such claims. Compared to the 2019 elections conducted in Nigeria, reports of electoral frauds have been on the front burner right from 1999. Its impact had made citizens have voters apathy and no trust in the democratic system in Nigeria. This paper used the qualitative research method to analyse the United States 2020 election cases of electoral fraud in an advanced democracy and diagnosed Nigeria’s 2019 and the United States 2020 elections. First, the study looked at the issues and challenges that have affected elections in both countries. Second, the paper used Game theory and the Conspiracy theory to assess the impact of a more proximate determinant of Election Day fraud; it examines Nigeria’s strategic efforts to combat electoral fraud using card reader technology. Finally, the paper concluded that there is no basis for comparison regarding elections in Nigeria and United States despite the hitches observed by the world in the United States elections. Electoral fraud will be inevitable regardless of how democratic a country claims to be if certain democratic tenets are not in place.
THE EFFECTS OF PHYSICAL MOVEMENT ON LANGUAGE LEARNERS’ SELF-CONFIDENCE AND WILLINGNESS TO COMMUNICATE

In the light of Dynamic Systems Theory, which defines language development as an interaction of various factors in a system, a quantitative research was executed to examine the effects of physical movement in classrooms on students’ self-confidence (SC) and willingness to communicate (WTC) in English. Four groups of English-majored freshmen from a university in Vietnam were selected as participants for this study. In their English course on communication skills, namely listening and speaking, they were regularly encouraged to move within their classroom or the classroom’s vicinity to do oral tasks in pairs or groups. A survey was conducted to measure the difference in their SC and WTC. Findings revealed a positive correlation between SC and WTC. Besides, it recorded positive effects of level and scale of mindful physical movement on SC and WTC’s improvement. This is a preliminary study to propose a pedagogical method to solve the issue of crowded FL classrooms.
Explicit Kronecker-Weyl theorems and applications to prime number races

We prove explicit versions of the Kronecker-Weyl theorems, both in a discrete and a continuous settings, without any linear independence hypothesis. As an application, we propose an alternative approach to problems concerning asymptotic densities in prime number races, over number fields and over function fields in one variable over finite fields, in the language of random variables. Our approach allows us to prove new results on the existence and positivity of some of those densities, which, in the case of races over function fields, do not require any linear independence hypothesis.
Neural-network learning of SPOD latent dynamics

We aim to reconstruct the latent space dynamics of high dimensional, quasi-stationary systems using model order reduction via the spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD). The proposed method is based on three fundamental steps: in the first, once that the mean flow field has been subtracted from the realizations (also referred to as snapshots), we compress the data from a high-dimensional representation to a lower dimensional one by constructing the SPOD latent space; in the second, we build the time-dependent coefficients by projecting the snapshots containing the fluctuations onto the SPOD basis and we learn their evolution in time with the aid of recurrent neural networks; in the third, we reconstruct the high-dimensional data from the learnt lower-dimensional representation. The proposed method is demonstrated on two different test cases, namely, a compressible jet flow, and a geophysical problem known as the Madden-Julian Oscillation. An extensive comparison between SPOD and the equivalent POD-based counterpart is provided and differences between the two approaches are highlighted. The numerical results suggest that the proposed model is able to provide low rank predictions of complex statistically stationary data and to provide insights into the evolution of phenomena characterized by specific range of frequencies. The comparison between POD and SPOD surrogate strategies highlights the need for further work on the characterization of the interplay of error between data reduction techniques and neural network forecasts.
