Online Japanese Accent Dictionary - 0 views

  •  
    OJAD is an online Japanese accent database for learners and teachers of Japanese.  The goal of this tool is to enhance the awareness and understanding of the Japanese pitch accent with a suite of four features.   The words in the dictionary encompass over 9000 nouns and 3500 declinable words including verbs, i-adjectives, and na-adjectives, making it possible to search approximately 42,300 conjugations of words.  What's more, each conjugated form given in the dictionary is accompanied by both male and female audio.  This suite provides three other useful tools in addition to word search.  With Verb-Suffix Search, you can look up the accent type for a verb followed by a suffix.  With Text-Search, you can look up the accent types for words in an excerpt of text.  Lastly, with Suzuki-kun, you can predict and display the pitch contour for an excerpt of text.  We hope that you will be able to make use of these tools in your future language lessons or language studies.

Orthographe et grammaire française grâce aux Dictées en ligne (à imprimer) so... - 0 views

  •  
    This French website created for native French speakers is full of dictées - dictations. This site is divided into grade levels based on the French school system. (For a brief run-down of the grade levels in France visit the blog from Transparent Language entitled À l'École!: French and American Grade Levels Compared at http://blogs.transparent.com/french/a-lecole/) Since the ladictee.fr website is targeted toward elementary aged children, the language level works well for beginner and intermediate French L2 learners. Even though a dictée isn't what people would call a "communicative" activity, it does serve the purpose of helping students make connections between spoken language and written language, especially since French spelling is not phonemic. The site includes various dictées for each level, along with a PDF of the written text so student's can check their work. Doing dictées can help students improve their spelling, recognize spelling patterns, and learn to listen for cues in spoken speech that indicate whether the person is speaking in the plural or singular (often tricky in the French language). Note: When doing a dictée, students are focused on writing down what is said word for word, and NOT on comprehension. It would NOT be effective to give a student a dictée and then immediately ask them specific comprehension questions about what they just heard.

His versatility as an actor is evident in the myriad roles he's undertaken, each distinct, yet bound by the thread of Brody's unique touch. Whether it's a romantic lead, a comedic role, or a complex character study, Brody has always managed to captivate audiences, making them laugh, cry, and reflect.

Word and Phrase: Analyze Text - 3 views

  •  
    You can enter any text that you would like in the form at the left -- for example, a paper that you've written, or a newspaper article that you've copied from another website. After inputting the text, you can then see useful information about words and phrases in that text, based on data from the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA). First, it will highlight all of the medium and lower-frequency words in your text and create lists of these words that you can use offline. This frequency data can help language learners focus on new words, and it can allow you to see "what the text is about" (i.e. text-specific words). You can also have it show you the "academic" words in your text. Second, you can click through the words in the text to see a detailed "word sketch" of any of the words -- showing their definition, and detailed information for the word from COCA -- collocates (which provide meaning into the meaning and usage of the word), re-sortable concordance lines, and the frequency of the word (overall, and by genre). Finally, you can do powerful searches on selected phrases in your text, to show related phrases in COCA. In this way, this resource is like a "collocational thesaurus" to see what related phrases are most likely in different styles of English. For example, if you click on the words potent argument in the text that you enter, it will suggest alternate ways to express this (e.g. powerful or convincing argument), and it will show you the frequency of those phrases in COCA -- overall, and by genre. This will help you use "just the right phrase", based on a huge collection of native English texts.

    It is not easy to learn a foreign language, but it is no doubt possible. You just need to make an effort. From my own experience, I can say that the hard task for me was writing essays. I even had to address writing services https://letsgradeit.com/best-essay-writing-services/ to meet the deadline. But later I noticed that reading books aloud, listening to local music, learning the lyrics, and talking to a native speaker helped me to improve my knowledge and skills greatly.

    Everyone has inaccuracies in their work, and this is a workflow. Only specialists, on the other hand, should put their trust in the preparation of appropriate documents. As a result, when I needed to finish an admissions application, I enlisted the help of professional personal statement writing service https://www.personalstatementwriter.com/ . They developed an introductory document for me that wowed the admissions staff and demonstrated my devotion and excitement.

      How might we promote the same interaction among students using Twitter for classroom and learning?
  • Since Twitter is considered to be a social networking website, one aspect of this study looked at dialogue that transpired between followers to show evidence of collaborative conversations rather than unidirectional sharing of information.
  • Survey results show that nine out of ten of the respondents were able to give concrete examples of collaboration that occurred with fellow Twitter users.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • These examples included ideas such as creating units, sharing of resources, students collaborating on projects between classrooms, exchanging professional materials and readings, writing book chapters, and even co-presenting at conferences.
  • beyond 140-character messages. That teachers moved discussions to forums that allow for deeper discussion and expansion of ideas is encouraging; Twitter does not seem to be a place to collaborate in depth, but rather to make those initial connections - a "jumping off" point.
  • how using Twitter has benefited them professionally. Four unique themes emerged from their responses: Access to resources Supportive relationships Increased leadership capacity Development of a professional vision
  • practical resources and ideas as a benefit.
  • opportunities for them to take leadership roles in developing professional development, organizing conferences, publishing, and grant writing.
  • This research study provides new insight into how teachers use social networking sites such as Twitter for professional purposes.
