Download or read book Multimodality across Epistemologies in Second Language Research written by Amanda Brown and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection highlights diverse epistemological perspectives in original research on the important role of multimodality in second language contexts. The volume explores a wide range of theoretical and methodological traditions toward foregrounding the notion that bodily action is not merely an add-on to the modality of talk but an integral part of second language teaching, learning, and interaction. Following an introductory chapter, 18 empirical chapters feature either classroom or non-classroom research, which shed light on different dimensions of multimodality in second language contexts, including learning reflected in gesture, learning gesture across languages, the role of bodily action in language teaching, and the role of movement in configuring space for effective communication. Each empirical chapter follows a consistent structure detailing the research focus, the background to each study, methodology, and findings. A concluding synthesis chapter braids the insights of these chapters, drawing parallels across different methods, and pointing toward crosscutting areas for future research. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in applied linguistics, multilingualism, bilingualism, gesture studies, cognitive science, and psychology.

Download or read book Robotique flexible Manipulation multi chelle written by GROSSARD Mathieu and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Qu’il s’agisse de tâches de préhension versatile aux échelles du micromonde ou bien de tâches de manipulation fine ou dextre à une échelle dimensionnelle supérieure, la fonction de manipulation robotique nécessite l’utilisation de systèmes mécatroniques performants et précis. Dans la majorité des cas, ceux-ci mettent en jeu des mécanismes qui sont caractérisés par des phénomènes mécaniques de flexibilité. Ces phénomènes sont induits naturellement par l’emploi de certains composants technologiques constitutifs du système ou par la géométrie de certaines structures élancées. Il peut alors s’agir de micromanipulateurs à base de matériaux actifs, de bras manipulateurs légers, d’organes terminaux de préhension très intégrés sur le plan fonctionnel, voire de manipulateurs d’inspiration anthropomorphe. Aperçu des dernières avancées scientifiques et technologiques en la matière, cet ouvrage est destiné à toute personne intéressée par le champ de la robotique flexible et plus particulièrement par la manipulation.

This book was released on 1984 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An annotated bibliography of works concerning the second language classroom, and especially oral language instruction, has four sections. The first addresses general issues in second language instruction: its nature, the component parts, goals, and problems. The second part focuses on the classroom participants, teachers and learners, and the kinds of exchanges that occur in the classroom, group dynamics, the teacher's preparations, the teacher's role in classroom communication, correction of errors, and evaluation of oral expression. The third section contains items concerning the evolution or unfolding of the class from the point of view of theme and mood. The fourth section looks at pedagogical trends and the implications of their application. Annotations of works published in French are written in French; those of works published in English are written in English. (MSE).

Download or read book Cross Categorial Classification written by Serge Sagna and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-03-07 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Languages in which non-finite verbs (infinitives, gerunds etc.) are classified using the same linguistic means as nouns are rare. This typologically unusual phenomenon is found in some Atlantic (Niger-Congo) languages, including Jóola languages like Eegimaa, Fogny and Kwatay, where several different noun class/gender prefixes (NCPs) are used to classify both nouns and verbs. In this book, it is argued following Sagna (2008), that these parallel morphosyntactic classifications in the nominal domain and verbal domains also reflect parallel semantic categorisation of entities and events. The main topics investigated in this book are word class flexibility between nouns and verbs, non-finiteness, noun class/gender (where morphological classes are analysed separately from agreement classes) and the semantic principles underlying the categorisation of entities and events. One of the central findings proposed in this book is that instances of NCP alternations on non-finite verbs reflect strategies of event delimitation. This book will be of interest to scholars investigating parts-of-speech systems, finiteness, systems of nominal and verbal classification, and linguistic categorization.

Download or read book Cognition incertitude et pr visibilit written by Bernard Cadet and published by Editions Publibook. This book was released on 2008 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Etudier et discuter des possibilités de traitement de situations impliquant incertitude et prévisibilité, tel était le but que s'étaient fixés les participants au colloque international des 8 et 9 juin 2007 qui s'est tenu à la Maison de la Recherche en Sciences Humaines de l'Université de Caen Basse-Normandie. B. Cadet, G. Chasseigne et G. Foliot ont réuni ici le fruit des travaux menés durant ces deux jours. Les contributions rassemblées dans cet ouvrage ont pour caractéristique commune l'étude de situations quotidiennes ou exceptionnelles où coexistent information et incertitude, et qui requièrent la mise en œuvre de fonctions cognitives de haut niveau (jugement, évaluation, estimation, prédiction, décision, langage, raisonnement, etc.). Avec la thématique "Cognition, incertitude et prévisibilité" comme référence commune, les auteurs, relevant de disciplines différentes (linguistique, sciences de gestion, économie, microbiologie, épistémologie, robotique, sciences de l'éducation, psychologie, etc.) présentent et analysent des modes de traitement sensiblement différents qu'une perspective pluridisciplinaire propre au lecteur permet ensuite de dépasser et de synthétiser. Une telle approche permet de dégager des repères conceptuels fondamentaux comme l'existence de différentes formes d'incertitude, leurs dénominations, leurs traitements écologiques par des modèles, des procédures cognitives et / ou statistiques applicables à de tels contextes, leurs effets sur les conduites individuelles ou collectives, etc. Rédigé dans un style très clair sans pour autant sacrifier à la précision de l'analyse, l'ouvrage s'adresse aux lecteurs intéressés, aux professionnels, aux étudiants et aux chercheurs souhaitant acquérir une plus grande pertinence dans le traitement des nombreuses situations présentant incertitude et prévisibilité. Il constitue à ce jour un bilan original très actuel sur cette question.

Download or read book M taheuristiques pour l ordonnancement multicrit re et les probl mes de transport written by JARBOUI Bassem and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pour assurer une production de biens de qualité, de manière fiable et dans des délais maîtrisés, les organisations ont besoin d’outils d'exécution optimale de tâches tels que l’ordonnancement. Le succès des méthodologies de résolution des problèmes d’ordonnancement de production basées sur les métaheuristiques s’explique par leur capacité à fournir des solutions proches de l’optimum, dans des temps raisonnables. Cet ouvrage se consacre, dans un premier temps, aux métaheuristiques appliquées aux problèmes d’ordonnancement multicritère, qui sont des cas particuliers des problèmes d’optimisation combinatoire multicritère, généralement NP-difficiles. Puis, il s’intéresse aux préoccupations d’ordonnancement dans le secteur du transport qui suscitent également de multiples problèmes d’optimisation. Deux grands domaines d’application se distinguent, celui des systèmes de transport et celui des ressources de transport intervenant dans un atelier.
