  • The aim of this article is to review the traditional methodologies of teaching translation that concentrate on text-typologies and, as an alternative, to propose an eclectic multi-componential approach that involves a set of interdisciplinary skills with a view to improving the trainee translators' competences and skills. To this end, three approaches, namely a minimalist approach, a pre-transferring adjustment approach and a revision vs. editing approach are proposed to shift the focus of attention from teacher-centred approaches towards student-centred approaches. It has been shown that translator training programmes need to focus on improving the trainee translators' competences and skills, such as training them how to produce and select among the different versions they produce by themselves with justified confidence as quickly as they can (minimalist approach), adjust the original text semantically, syntactically and/or textually in a way that the source text supplely accommodates itself in the linguistic system of the target language (pre-transferring adjustment), and revise and edit others' translations. As the validity of the approach proposed relies partially on instructors' competences and skills in teaching translation, universities, particularly in the Arab world, need to invest in recruiting expert practitioners instead of depending mainly on bilingual teachers to teach translation.

  • This thesis explores the principle of a performer's organic action by means of his/her bodily responses on stage. This research has been developed to define the nature of a performer's central task in order to constitute empirical understanding of acting and the purpose of training in addressing the question of what sort of qualitative bodily training is necessary to be in a state of the full body involvement. This study investigates to articulate a performer's fundamental task at the most rudimentary level by utilizing those theatre artists' concepts with practical assumptions. In particular, the key terms, happen and change signifies the quality of a performer's body that has to fit into the given environment in which the performer's body can be subordinated through the moment on stage. Here, we argue that a performer's essential task parallel to make the following moment to happen and change by means of progressing a set of the next moment. In this manner, we also argue that a moment of displaying the performer's conscious effort, forceful and externalizing the visible elements under the use of erroneous language leads his/her body not to function on stage, a state of disengagement from his/her body. Finally, we provide a way to facilitate a performer's organic action by focused on his/her lived experience to create the functional moment which is opposite to the predominance of a representation, maintaining the performer's intellectual sense.

  • 최근 몇 년 동안 LSTM 블록이 있는 RNN 네트워크는 순차적 데이터를 처리하는 기계 학습 작업에 광범위하게 사용되어왔다. 이러한 네트워크는 주어진 시퀀스에서 가능성이 다음으로 가장 높은 단어를 기존 신경망보다 더 정확하게 예측할 수 있기 때문에 순차적 언어 처리 작업에서 특히 우수한 것으로 입증되었다. 이 연구는 영어와 한국어로 된 150개의 성경 시편에 대한 세 가지 다른 번역에 대해 RNN/LSTM 신경망을 훈련하였다. 그런 다음 결과 모델에 입력 단어와 길이 번호를 제공하여 훈련 중에 인식한 패턴을 기반으로 원하는 길이의 새 시편을 자동으로 생성하였다. 영어 텍스트와 한국어 텍스트에 대한 네트워크 훈련 결과를 상호 비교하고 개선할 점을 기술한다.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate prospective teachers' perceptions of the peer review comments readily available to them during the writing process in a teacher training class. Given these needs, we employ a qualitative method of inquiry giving voice to the learner's own view of peer feedback. The data we wish to consider is first-person narratives elicited from four EFL college students, who are prospective teachers of English. With regard to the EFL students' narrative considered here, all were attentive to the feedback they received. Moreover, the way in which these EFL writers talk about peer response activity reflects that they still welcome peer feedback because of the benefits to be accrued from it. Although this study, covering only four EFL students in total, can hardly be considered conclusive, we attempt to offer a synthesis of their stories. First of all, students indicate that they received responses from "authentic readers" (Mittan 1989, 209). We do note, consequently, that students gain a clear understanding of readers' needs by receiving feedback on what they did well and on what seems unclear. Perhaps the greater effect of peer feedback claimed by these students is that they take active roles in utilizing peer comments. Since they feel uncertain about the validity of their classmates' responses, students feel that they have autonomy over their own text and can make their own decisions on whether they should accept their peer comments or not. This contrasts with their treatment of teacher comments that they accept begrudgingly even if they disagree with them. Four EFL writers talked a lot, typically in a positive way, about peer response to their writing, yet they have expressed reservations about the extent to which they should put any credence in comments offered by their fellow students. Perhaps this is because their fellow students are still developing writers and EFL learners. In turn, they were sometimes reluctant to accept the peers' comments. Thus, in EFL contexts, L1 use can be suggested during peer feedback sessions. In particular, we have come to feel that L1 use enables both reviewers and receivers to have more productive peer review experiences. Additionally, we need to train students not "to see peer feedback as potentially bad advice" (Silva et al. 2003, 111). Teachers should focus on training students to utilize their peers' comments. Without such training, students will either ignore feedback or fail to use it constructively.

  • In this paper, a problem of Thai sign language recognition using a neural network is considered. The paper addresses the problem in classifying certain signs conveying quantitative meaning, e.g., large or small. By treating those signs corresponding to different quantities as derived from different classes, the recognition error rate of the standard multi-layer Perceptron increases if the precision in recognizing different quantities is increased. This is due the fact that, to increase the quantitative recognition precision of those signs, the number of (increasingly similar) classes must also be increased. This leads to an increase in false classification. The problem is due to misinterpreting the amount of quantity the quantitative signs convey. In this paper, instead of treating those signs conveying quantitative attribute of the same quantity type (such as 'size' or 'amount') as derived from different classes, here they are considered instances of the same class. Those signs of the same quantity type are then further divided into different subclasses according to the level of quantity each sign is associated with. By using this two-level classification, false classification among main gesture classes is made independent to the level of precision needed in recognizing different quantitative levels. Moreover, precision of quantitative level classification can be made higher during the recognition phase, as compared to that used in the training phase. A standard multi-layer Perceptron with a back propagation learning algorithm was adapted in the study to implement this two-level classification of quantitative gesture signs. Experimental results obtained using an electronic glove measurement of hand postures are included.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate dietary behaviors and nutritional knowledge among immigrant women in multicultural families. In addition, this study reveals a necessity for nutrition education, which is apparent to both immigrant women living in multicultural families as well as nutrition education experts. The survey was conducted with 30 immigrant women within multicultural families in Seoul. The dietary behaviors of the women were significantly different by their period of residence. The longer they had resided in Korea, the higher their dietary behavior score. However, there was no significant difference in nutrition knowledge by their period of residence. This study also conducted in-depth personal interviews with 8 immigrant women who lived in Seoul, and with 4 nutrition education experts. These interviews were performed to provide profound insights regarding the content and means of nutrition education for immigrant women. Nutrition education for immigrant women living in multicultural families should proceed at a basic level in terms of language and content, using bilingual (Korean and their native language) education materials. Education topics and content need to be developed differently according to the level of Korean comprehension and period of residence in Korea. Also, this multicultural approach should be adapted when planning nutrition education since immigrant women have various acculturation levels, and the content and means of education should be adjusted to these acculturation levels. Management after nutrition education is necessary for immigrant women who do not have sufficient understanding of the Korean language. Practical educational methods such as real cooking practices and food purchasing simulations must be developed. Finally, the results suggest that the government needs to establish a systematic plan for nutrition education among immigrant women living in multicultural families. Policy support such as training nutrition educators on multicultural individuals residing in Korea is necessary for active and effective nutritional education.

  • 소프트웨어 개발자가 우수한 품질의 소프트웨어를 생산하기 위해서는 먼저 소프트웨어 품질에 대해서 확실하게 인지하고 있어야만 하며, 고품질의 소프트웨어는 개발자의 사소한 실수도 포함 되어서는 안된다. 프로그램을 개발하는 모든 소프트웨어 엔지니어들은 모두가 다른 개발 습관을 가지고 있으며, 각자의 개발 방법을 개선하기 위한 노력 또한 모두가 다르다. 보다 효율적인 소프트웨어 개발이 되기 위해서는 모든 개발자들은 자신이 현재 진행하고 있는 작업에 대한 개발 계획을 수립해야 하는데, 이러한 개발 계획은 반드시 자신의 과거 개발 경험에 근거한 개발 계획이어야 한다는 것이다. 소프트웨어 개발자가 이러한 경험 요소를 반영하여 자신의 개발 능력을 지속적으로 향상시키기 위해서는 사전에 잘 정의되고 평가가 가능한 개선 방법을 사용해야만 한다. Personal Software Process(PSP)는 소프트웨어 엔지니어가 자신의 작업을 조절하고 관리하여 그들의 작업 방식을 개선할 수 있도록 지원하기 위한 것이다. PSP에서는 소프트웨어를 개발하기 위해 필요한 각종 양식, 이 양식을 작성하기 위한 작성법, 그리고 개발 절차가 포함되어 있다. PSP를 적절하게 사용한다면, PSP는 개발자에게 과거의 경험 자료를 축적하고 분석한 결과를 제공함으로써 개발을 진행함에 있어 요구되는 여러 가지 개발 계획을 효과적으로 수립하고 이를 준수할 수 있도록 해 줄 수 있다. 따라서 PSP는 프로그래밍 언어 교육 과정에 있는 학생들에게 프로그램 훈련을 시키기에 아주 유용한 도구이다. 본 논문에서는 PSP에 대한 전체적인 개념을 설명하고 각종 프로그래밍 언어 교육 과정에서 PSP를 적용하는 방안을 제시한다.
