Abstract:

A contributing factor to a remedial reading student's reading achievement might be the content teachers' attitude toward the student. The related literature suggests that teachers' attitudes, beliefs and expectations toward students can affect students' achievement. This study was designed to investigate the attitudes and knowledge of English, science and social studies secondary school teachers regarding the remedial reading students in their classrooms and the attitudes and knowledge about the remedial reading programs at their respective schools.

Abstract:

The introduction of the Internet and digitalization has posed a lot of challenges for news publishing industry, so as for magazine publishers. Due to rapid development of technology, most of magazine publishers are compelled to not only transform their print products into digital format, but also to exclusively create digital content and put it up on their websites and/or on other platforms and electronic devices. Also, users’ consumption behaviors have shifted to consume a lot of media in digital format. Thus it is crucial for digital magazine publishers to have a better understanding of read

Abstract:

Despite the profound implication of blogs for marketing communications, there are very few theoretical and empirical studies on this emerging social phenomenon. This study is one of the first to investigate how blog users engage with blogs. Specifically it looks at the relationship between perceived interactivity and attitude towards blogs and between perceived interactivity and sponsored posts on blogs. It also looks at how personal factors and blog characteristic factors influences consumers' attitude towards blogs and sponsored posts on blogs. Key literature was reviewed, following which a

Abstract:

Much of what technical communicators know about language use is based on spoken or written communication; however, newer media complicate those boundaries. Spoken and written language differ primarily in the use of metadiscourse, language that aids interpretation of propositions. While research shows that metadiscourse aids in retention and attitude change in both print and speech, none exists to show whether this is true in a medium like the Internet, which has qualities of both. Technical communicators need this information because they must compose similar messages in several media: adverti

Abstract:

In commercial book translation, the reader is the end-user of the translated text; it is for his or her benefit that the translation has been produced, and it is the reading public whose money ultimately goes towards paying the translator‘s wages. Nonetheless, in Translation Studies, far more attention has been paid to the processes of translation or the finished translation product (see Saldanha and O‘Brien 2013) than to the users of such products, with reader-based studies few and far between. For this reason, there is little empirical evidence that the 'effects' and 'meanings' discussed by

However, we hope to provide another insight into the positive side of native advertising. Purpose - We seek to help advertisers improve native advertising content based on individua

Many of the attitudes that we form about a wide range of issues in society are formed as a direct result of the coverage we receive through the media, although there are numerous other factors involved such as issue involvement, intensity and clos
