Observations On The Language Acquisition Of A Thai/English Bilingual Child, Michael A. Betcher

MA TESOL Collection

A child subject, bilingual in Thai and English, was studied during his 25th months for aspects of transference* and interference in his developing speech. A speach diary was kept on a daily basis. Attention was focused on prosodic features (intonation/tonality), word borrowing and code switching. Examples of all these phenomena were recorded, but the most significant was that of prosodic interference, wherein English intonation indicating stress, excitement or urgency was carried over into the strictly regulated Thai intonation system. * A term which is used to avoid the negative implications of "interference" and to indicate the use of a syncretic …

Of Time And Tense: An Analysis Of The English Verb Tense System For The Esl Teacher, William David Helz

MA TESOL Collection

The intent of the writer with this paper is to provide the ESL instructor with the knowledge necessary to effective planning for and teaching of lessons concerning the verb tenses of English.

The analysis given in the paper is an attempt at viewing the verb tenses as compromising a system which is basically symmetrical and surprisingly logical. As such, it is felt that through exploring the relationships tenses share with one another, we have found the key to demonstrating tense usage and meaning effectively for students and to planning drills and exercises which will zero in on the primary conceptual …

Bengali Sound-Color Fidel And Spelling Charts And Their Analysis, Husne Jahan Alam

MA TESOL Collection

The Sound-Color Fidel represents in color all the sounds of modern Bengali and is designed to facilitate the easy recognition and reproduction of those sounds. The colored Spelling Charts are a group of phonic codes which include all the signs and spellings of written Bengali arranged in vertical columns corresponding to the Sound-Color Fidel. They are designed to organize and simplify the complexities of written Bengali. My paper explains the assumptions about teaching and learning I developed during the production of the charts, my understanding of the sounds and spellings of the Bengali language and their arrangement on the charts …

The Relationship Between Perceived Locus Of Control And Achievement Among Filipino-American Students In The Elementary Grades., Estela Guevara Pinga

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Purpose: The purpose of this dissertation was to verify research information concerning perceived locus of control (PLC) on a population sample composed of 154 Filipino-American students in Stockton Unified School District. Perceived locus of control is a personality construct derived from Julian Rotter's social learning theory. Rotter posits that the probability of the occurrence of a particular behavior is determined, not only by the importance of the goal to the individual, but also by his expectancy that this goal will be achieved as a consequence of the behavior. PLC refers to an individual's perception of the causal relationship between his …

Children's Recognition Of Words In Isolation And In Context, Patrick Groff

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

The extent to which young children use, or should use sentence contexts as cues to word recognition is an unsettled issue. It is clear, on the one hand, that there are inherent limitations in this cue system to its successful use for this purpose (Groff, 1975). Also, the notion that beginning readers "have little else on which to rely" for word recognition except context cues, as offered by Karlin (1971, p. 145) has also been demonstrated as false. To the contrary, the research on word recognition suggests that these young children use letters as the main cues for word recognition …

Reading Enrichment Materials For Teaching Borderline Students, Katie M. Jackson

All Graduate Projects

Borderline students are always the students who seem to go unnoticed in the classroom. The students' reading levels are not high enough to function at grade level and not low enough to get the extra assistance from the Reading Specialist in the assigned building. Often the students are given just enough reading material to keep them busy.

A reading enrichment program, developed through the use of learning packets and supplemental books, is designed to help alleviate some of the problems these students experience in reading. The learning packet materials were selected to encourage students to appreciate books, learn to read …
