Education in Nepal

James (name changed) is an American National, who is currently doing Master of Arts in TESOL at University of Central Florida. Rarely, I get an opportunity to talk to him and share our experiences of the world. He is in a hurry, he wants to go the United Arab Emirates (UAE) or Saudi Arabia (KSA) as soon as he finishes his degree in the States. I thought, that is quite common among Nepalese and American, they know where 'money' lies. Over the years of living in Europe and the United States, I come to know that there are many people of different nationality who want to go abroad.

Comprehensive Text Mining and Natural Language Processing Analysis of a Ph.D. Dissertation: Insights from Multi-Faceted Linguistic Exploration

By
  Introduction of the Project This project aims to conduct a comprehensive linguistic analysis of a Ph.D. dissertation using advanced text mining and natural language processing techniques. By employing a diverse set of analytical methods, including word frequency analysis, sentiment analysis, topic modeling, named entity recognition, and readability assessment, among others, the study seeks to uncover deeper insights into the dissertation’s content, structure, and stylistic features. This multi-faceted approach will not only provide a quantitative understanding of the text but also offer qualitative insights into the dissertation’s themes, coherence, and overall academic contribution. The project’s findings are expected to demonstrate the potential of computational linguistics in enhancing the evaluation and understanding of complex academic texts, potentially paving the way for more sophisticated tools in academic writing and assessment. A. Summary of the Dissertation My Ph....

Does Infused ESOL teacher preparation program hold promise toward narrowing the English Learner achievement gap? A Multilevel analysis of the One-Plus Model

By
👆    ABSTRACT This study examined the effectiveness of the pre-service teacher (PST) candidates who participated in an infused ESOL One-Plus model teacher preparation program (TPP) in a large public university located in the Southeastern United States. PST’ effectiveness was measured using the value-added model of teacher evaluation by means of reported pre- & posttest score through teacher work samples (TWS). The data included K-12 students’ achievement scores on tests designed and administered by One-Plus PSTs before and after teaching a unit in the content area and language arts courses during their internship. The procedure involved measuring students’ existing/baseline knowledge of the unit using the pretest scores later compared to their posttest scores to assess the learning gains and achievement gap among students of various demographic characteristics including ELs. In addition, the study measured the interactional effects of student-level variables on achievemen...
