Yarbro, Jeffrey T.; Olney, Andrew M. – Grantee Submission, 2021
This paper presents WikiMorph, a tool that automatically breaks down words into morphemes, etymological compounds (morphemes from root languages), and generates contextual definitions for each component. It comes in two flavors: a dataset and a deep-learning-based model. The dataset was extracted from Wiktionary and contains over 450k entries. We…

Dongkawang Shin; Yuah V. Chon – Language Learning & Technology, 2023
Considering noticeable improvements in the accuracy of Google Translate recently, the aim of this study was to examine second language (L2) learners' ability to use post-editing (PE) strategies when applying AI tools such as the neural machine translator (MT) to solve their lexical and grammatical problems during L2 writing. This study examined 57…

Yarbro, Jeffrey T.; Olney, Andrew M. – Grantee Submission, 2021
This paper explores the concept of dynamically generating definitions using a deep-learning model. We do this by creating a dataset that contains definition entries and contexts associated with each definition. We then fine-tune a GPT-2 based model on the dataset to allow the model to generate contextual definitions. We evaluate our model with…

Wang, Chia-Sui; Huang, Yong-Ming – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2016
Face-to-face computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) was used extensively to facilitate learning in classrooms. Cloud services not only allow a single user to edit a document, but they also enable multiple users to simultaneously edit a shared document. However, few researchers have compared student acceptance of such services in…

Sobreira, Pericles; Tchounikine, Pierre – International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2012
This article presents a model whose primary concern and design rationale is to offer users (teachers) with basic ICT skills an intuitive, easy, and flexible way of editing scripts. The proposal is based on relating an end-user representation as a table and a machine model as a tree. The table-tree model introduces structural expressiveness and…

Carneiro, Paula; Fernandez, Angel – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2010
Two experiments were conducted to examine whether children of different ages differ in their ability to reject associative false memories with the Deese-Roediger-McDermott (DRM) paradigm. Two different types of manipulations that are thought to facilitate false memory rejection in adults--slowing the presentation rate and issuing explicit…

Dishaw, Mark; Eierman, Michael A.; Iversen, Jakob H.; Philip, George C. – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2011
Businesses and other organizations are relying increasingly on virtual teams to perform a range of business activities. A key challenge in utilizing virtual teams is to support collaboration among team members who are separated by distance and/or time. In this paper we use a research model based on a combination of the Technology Acceptance Model…
