Abstract:

Research has shown that widespread misperceptions prevail regarding the use and sustainability of Americaâ s forest resources. Elementary school students receive only a general foundation in the area of wood science and many elementary school resources have shown to be inadequate. Virginia Tech and a few other universities have adopted Wood Magic (originated at Mississippi State University) which presents active, hands-on, and engaging science-based education to third, fourth, and fifth graders, allowing them the opportunity to obtain both a theoretical and practical knowledge in these area

Abstract:

In this thesis I argue that the image of a child lost in the bush became a central strand in the Australian colonial experience, creating a cultural legacy that remains to this day. I also argue that the way in which the image developed in Australia was unique among British-colonised societies. I explore the dominant themes of my thesis - the nature of childhood, the effect of environment upon colonisers, and the power of memory - primarily through stories. The bush-lost child is an image that developed mainly in the realms of ‘low’ culture, in popular journals, newspapers, stories and images

Abstract:

The focus of the current thesis is to examine the linguistic and non-linguistic factors that affect bilingual performance with different language tasks. The aim of the investigation is twofold: on the one hand it examines the role of translation similarity in processing words in the two languages. Specifically, if processing of cognates (translations that share form) and non-cognates (translations with no form overlap) differ as a function of orthographic and phonological overlap between Greek and English. This pair of languages is not commonly researched in bilingual studies and the benefit o

Abstract:

Children with cochlear implants (CIs) typically have smaller lexicons in relation to their same-age hearing peers. There is also evidence that children with CIs show slower rates of vocabulary growth compared to hearing children. To understand why children with CIs have smaller vocabularies, we proposed to investigate their word learning process and determine how it compares to children with normal hearing. The present study explores multiple aspects of word learning - acquisition, extension, and retention - to better inform us about the real-world process of lexical acquisition in children wi

Abstract:

Children with Specific Language Impairment (SLI) often present with difficulties in learning new words compared to age-matched children with typical language development. These difficulties may affect the acquisition, storage, or retrieval of new words. Word-learning deficits impact on children’s vocabulary development and impede their language and literacy development. Findings from a wide range of studies investigating word-learning in children with SLI demonstrated that semantic and phonological knowledge are crucial to the word-learning process.

This study explores the effects of modified speech on fast mapping and learning new words using video modelling, based on evidence in ASD of particular difficulty processing speech in background noise, temporal speech processing and a potential multisensory integration deficit.

Abstract:

Children can learn aspects of the meaning of a new word on the basis of only a few incidental exposures and can retain this knowledge for a long time. The process of rapidly learning and remembering new words has come to be known as fast mapping. It is often maintained that fast mapping is the result of a dedicated language mechanism, but it is possible that this same capacity might apply in domains other than language learning. The present studies explore the nature of fast mapping, with the goal of revealing more about the mechanism underlying word learning in children. One possibility is th

Many children with developmental language disorder experience deficits in memory and word learning. However, the nature of these difficulties was not well known. As such, the working, declarative, and procedural memory skills of children with DLD and typical language were explored in this PhD. Additionally, word learning skills, and how they relate to memory abilities, were investigated. The clinical application of word learning evaluation was also examined, and implications for theory and practice were described.

This dissertation was written to answer some questions about the different roles played by memory in school-age Catalan-Spanish children with specific language impairment (SLI). Currently, a small but growing body of work suggests that individuals with SLI have difficulty performing tasks that require non-declarative learning. That is, they present with difficulties in the process of extracting abstract knowledge from statistical patterns, probabilistic computations (statistical learning) and procedural skills (procedural learning) embedded in the input.

Abstract:

Social-pragmatic accounts of word learning focus on the roles of joint attention (JA) and intention reading (IR) when acquiring new words (Bloom, 2001; Tomasello, 2003). These key social-pragmatic skills are known to be impaired in autism and have been linked to their language difficulties. Although thought to be important in non-ostensive contexts, previous research has provided inconsistent findings concerning the word-learning ability of children with autism (CWA) in these contexts (Franken, Lewis, & Malone, 2010; Parish-Morris, Hennon, Hirsh-Pasek, Michnick Golinkoff, & Tager-Flusberg, 200

This description has been frequently translated into the formula ‘X is a Y that Z’ (Nippold, 1995; Watson, 1995) which has lead developmental researchers to consider that a definition that includes a relative clause to

Attention impairments are well documented in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Under associative accounts of early word learning, the attention impairments in children with ASD preclude them from developing effective learning strategies. In this study we examined whether children with ASD utilize the same attention cues for learning as their unaffected receptive-vocabulary mates. In a word-learning task, we asked: 1) whether hearing novel and attention-grabbing words cued children to shift their attention to the speaker, and 2) whether the children followed the gaze of the speaker
