Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Ontologies are conceptual models of a domain of discourse and are used in a number of applications to model a field of knowledge. For example, SNOMED, an ontology of medical terminology, is widely used among medical professionals. Commercial ontologies, such as SNOMED, can have hundreds of thousands of concepts. People who want to use these ontologies need an understanding thereof, but the sheer magnitude of these ontologies hampers comprehension. It was within this context that the need arose for software tools that facilitate the understanding of ontologies. Given this background, our aim is to investigate a new area within the field of ontologies, namely, ontology comprehension. We make a contribution to it by developing an ontology comprehension framework and writing a software tool of our own. This software tool, PathViz, helps users to understand how different concepts in an ontology are related to each other and what effect entailments have on the way concepts in an ontology relate to each other. The ontology comprehension framework, PathViz and the reasoning measurement instruments were found useful for ontology comprehension by participants at an ontology workshop.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ontologieë is konseptuele modelle van ’n domein en word in verskeie toepassings gebruik om ’n kennisveld te modelleer. SNOMED is ’n voorbeeld van ’n ontologie van mediese terme wat baie gebruik word deur die mediese beroepslui. Kommersiële ontologieë, soos SNOMED, kan bestaan uit duisende konsepte. Dit is belangrik om hierdie ontologieë wat gebruik word te verstaan, maar die enorme omvang van hierdie ontologieë belemmer die verstaanproses. In hierdie konteks het die behoefte ontstaan vir programmatuur wat die verstaanproses van ontologieë vergemaklik. Met hierdie agtergrond inaggenome, is dit ons doel om ’n nuwe area in die veld van ontologieë te ondersoek, naamlik, Ontologie-begrip. Ons maak ’n bydra tot hierdie veld deur ’n raamwerk vir ontologie-begrip te ontwikkel en programmatuur van ons eie te skryf. Hierdie programmatuur, PathViz, help gebruikers om te verstaan hoe verskillende konsepte in ’n ontologie aan mekaar verwant is. Verder help dit gebruikers om te verstaan watter invloed afleidings uit die ontologieë het op konsepverwantskappe. Deelnemers aan ’n ontologie-werkswinkel het gevind dat die raamwerk vir ontologie-begrip, PathViz en die instrumente wat die invloed van die ontologie-redeneerder meet, ontologie-begrip bevorder.

Este estudo empírico investigou o efeito facilitador de ilustrações na compreensão de texto para leitores de inglês como língua estrangeira. O estudo foi motivado pela necessidade de maior entendimento do tema, tendo em vista ser um assunto atualmente abordado por vários pesquisadores do campo de Linguística Aplicada. A metodologia adotada envolveu a coleta de dados de 13 participantes do curso de inglês extracurricular da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, com nível básico de proficiência, correspondente ao terceiro semestre do curso, o qual é composto por seis semestres. Os participantes foram divididos em três grupos pequenos e cada grupo leu o mesmo texto com uma abordagem diferente: O Pre-Reading Group realizou uma atividade pré-leitura com figuras antes de ler o texto; O With-Picture Group leu o texto com as imagens; e o No-Picture Group leu o texto sem imagens. As atividades realizadas pelos participantes consistiram em uma leitura de texto, uma arefa de recordação de conteúdo imediatamente após a leitura, uma tarefa de múltipla escolha, um questionário retrospectivo; uma segunda tarefa de recordação do conteúdo foi realizada uma semana após o primeiro encontro. Os dados foram analisados tanto quantitativamente quanto qualitativamente, examinando-se os resultados das tarefas de recordação do conteúdo lido, os dados da tarefa de múltipla escolha e o questionário retrospectivo. Os achados deste estudo indicam um efeito facilitador das ilustrações na compreensão de leitura quando levado em consideração o uso das imagens como suporte na atividade de pré-leitura. O grupo WPG mostrou melhores resultados no delayed recall quando comparado com o immediate recall. Os resultados gerais sugerem que o efeito facilitador do uso de ilustrações pode auxiliar os leitores de segunda língua (inglês) na seleção de informação relevante, o que pode ajudar na compreensão de texto para alunos/leitores com nível básico de proficiência.

La instrucción estrategia combinada se compone de organizadores gráficos, pantallas visuales, ilustraciones, ejercicios mnemotécnicos computadora, la predicción, la inferencia, la estructura del texto de la conciencia, la identificación de la idea principal, el resumen, y el cuestionamiento sobre la mejora de la comprensión lectora de textos narrativos para los estudiantes con dislexia en 12-14 y 13-15 años -old alumnos.
This experimental study was set to investigate the effect of combined strategy instruction on improving the reading comprehension of narrative texts by 12-14 and 13-15-year –old dyslexic learners of English as a foreign language as well as the comprehension of expository texts by their 14-16 and 15-17 –year old counterparts. In addition, the study looked into the interaction effects of the treatment with combined strategies and the gender of the participants (male versus female) and the school type of the study participants (control versus experimental, using a mixed method factorial design where the variable of the treatment conditions with two levels (control versus experimental) was used as an independent variable, the variables of gender and school were used as moderator variable, and reading comprehension as dependent variable. The combined strategy instruction consists of graphic organizers, visual displays, mnemonic illustrations, computer exercises, predicting, inference, text structure awareness, main idea identification, summarization, and questioning on improving the reading comprehension of narrative texts for students with dyslexia in 12-14 and 13-15-year –old .However, the study combined strategy instruction did not include computer exercise for students with dyslexia in 14-16 and 15-17 –year old ,and the expository texts and not the narrative ones were used in 14-16 and 15-17 –year old. The study findings were reported and discussed in light of previous research and study context as well as implications for classroom instruction and further research. The combined strategy instruction consists of graphic organizers, visual displays, mnemonic illustrations, computer exercises, predicting, inference, text structure awareness, main idea identification, summarization, and questioning on improving the reading comprehension of narrative texts for students with dyslexia in 12-14 and 13-15-year –old learners .

Full textI samband med andraspråksinlärning har det noterats att digitala fritidsaktiviteter påverkar de elever som spenderar mer tid på denna sorts aktiviteter (Sundqvist 2019, 95–103). Syftet med den aktuella undersökningen blev således att undersöka den möjliga effekt digitala fritidsaktiviteter, på engelska, har på just engelsk hörförståelse. De tre utvalda aktiviteterna är här digitala spel, film och musik. Engelska är alltså målspråket och fokusgruppen är sjätteklassare. Metoden som användes var en jämförelse mellan resultaten av en språkdagbok, bestående av det antal timmar som deltagarna angett att de spenderar på digitala fritidsaktiviteter under en genomsnittlig vecka, samt resultat inhämtade från en hörövning. Resultatet visar att det finns en positiv korrelation mellan resultaten på hörförståelsetestet och antalet timmar som spenderas på digitala fritidsaktiviteter. Vidare visade det sig att upprepad exponering för målspråket i ett digitalt sammanhang påverkar andraspråksinlärning i en begränsad utsträckning. Slutsatsen blev därmed att det krävs mer forskning för att komma fram till ett definitivt svar angående sambandet mellan digitala fritidsaktiviteter och engelsk hörförståelse.
