The Impact

ABSTRACTThis study aimed to explore the impact of an awareness tool for relatives of older drivers (OSCARPA) on i) their interest, openness and knowledge, ii) changes of abilities required for safe driving, and iii) utilization of compensatory strategies. A pre-experimental design with pretest (T0) and post-test (T1) eight to ten weeks after the intervention was realized with 45 relatives in contact with an older driver of 65 years old or older and who was driving at least once a week. Overall, the results demonstrated that OSCARPA increased i) interest, openness and knowledge of relatives (p<0.001), as well as their perceptions of ii) changes of abilities of older drivers (p=0.02), and iii) their utilization of compensatory strategies (p=0.001). Future studies would be relevant to further evaluate and increase the effectiveness of OSCARPA.

The Impact

The purpose of the article is to investigate the impact of teaching and learning methods on Jordanian students' performance in primary schools. This study is of quasi-experimental design. Three tools are used in this study: an interactive board, a class PC and traditional tools. The data was collected by questionnaires, and then regressions were used to test the hypothesis. The results indicate that for creativity thinking, the highest difference between pre and post-test is related to class PC followed by traditional learning and finally interactive boards. Moreover, results indicate that the three tools affect fluency, flexibility and originality, while they have no significant effect on elaboration. The results also indicate that for the academic achievement class the PC reported the highest mean, followed by interactive boards and finally by traditional tools. Furthermore, results show that using class the PC and interactive boards affect students' creative thinking as compared to traditional teaching.

En el artículo se persigue el propósito de evaluar la incidencia de la modelación sobre la adquisición de elementos técnicos tácticos del Karate Do durante la etapa de iniciación a esta disciplina deportiva. Se aplica un diseño pre-experimental con pre y pos-tratamiento para un grupo, el que estuvo conformado por 68 atletas cuyas edades oscilaron entre los seis y 12 años, la aplicación de la experiencia se extendió por un período de seis meses. Para evaluar la calidad en la ejecución de los elementos técnicos - tácticos, se utiliza la metodología validada por Guillén (2014). Tanto en el pre como en el pos test se utiliza el modelo de Torgerson para integrar la evaluación de los indicadores en un índice para cada dimensión y los resultados obtenidos en los dos momentos se comparan aplicando del test no paramétrico de los rangos con signo de Wilcoxon para muestras relacionadas, llegándose a obtener valores de p=.000, lo que evidencia la significación de las diferencias en cuanto a la adquisición de los elementos técnicos tácticos. Abstract. This article has the purpose of evaluating the impact of contextualization on the acquisition of tactical and technical elements of Karate Do at the athlete’s initiation stage in this sport. A pre-experimental design was applied, with pre and post-treatments for a group which was composed of 68 athletes whose ages ranged from six to 12 years, the application of this experience lasted over a period of six months. To assess the quality implementation of the technical and tactical elements, the methodology validated by Guillen (2014) was used. To integrate the pre and the post-test model evaluation indicators into an index for each dimension  Torgerson model was used while the results obtained in the two moments are compared using the nonparametric Wilcoxon test ranges for related samples, reaching values of p=.000, which shows the significance of differences regarding the acquisition of tactical technical elements.

Drivers over sixty-five years of age and drivers under twenty-one years of age have the highest relative frequency of crashes resulting in injury and death. Attitudes of these two groups were investigated using questionnaires. One hundred twenty-seven (127) younger and one hundred eight (108) older drivers who had voluntarily registered in driving education courses satisfactorily completed questionnaires about attitudes and behaviors pertinent to safe driving. Half of each sample rated the average driver in their age group and the average driver in the opposite age group as regarded thirty-three attitudes promoting safe driving, twenty courteous safe driving behaviors and eleven discourteous, unsafe driving behaviors. Data shows that younger drivers viewed older drivers as overly cautious, too slow to act and apt to cause accidents, and rated their peers as overly aggressive and discourteous. Older drivers characterized younger drivers as deficient in courtesy and safe driving practices, and they rated their peers as cautious, courteous, and aware of age-related limitations. The findings indicate that each group was aware that safety hazards are created by drivers in their age group. It also shows that both groups had a positive impression of some driving practices of their age group, and that the other group was depreciated. The outcome confirms and expands upon conclusions derived from less formal studies about how drivers perceive other roadway users. It also specifies the extent to which particular attitudes and driving practices are attributed to the peer group and to the opposite age group.

The Impact

Global Positioning System (GPS)-based travel diaries have emerged as valuable tools for urban transportation planning but have had little uptake in rural transportation planning. This chapter describes the methodology and effectiveness of employing vehicle-instrumented passive GPS units and participant-prompted recall with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in a rural travel diary study focused on understanding older driver travel behaviour. A convenience sample of 60 rural older drivers in New Brunswick, Canada participated for an average of 5.3 days. The GPS devices recorded 1649 “stops” of 1 minute or more, with 8% of all “stops” due to stoplights or traffic delay. Remaining “stops” were organized into 1494 trips (one origin with one destination), with participants supplying travel purposes and driver and passenger details for 99.1% of trips. An external battery for the GPS unit minimized satellite acquisition delay but was exhausted in 10% of cases. Results from the study permitted an exploratory analysis of the impact of select license restrictions on older drivers, the potential for rural older drivers to meet their needs without a car, and exposure analysis by road class.

Data Result

Young learners were aged 5-6 have a golden age to master a new language since they have good memorization in their brains. It is similar to the phenomenon at Halimah Kindergarten Prenduan Sumenep. 11 students had mastered their first language (Indonesian) 8 of 11 students among them cannot answer the teacher's question about English vocabulary of profession after the teacher taught learning vocabulary in the classroom. Additionally, the students are still difficult to answer the questions. Ultimately, this research measures whether kindergartens students learning vocabulary with the Multisensory Method have better-memorizing vocabulary and the significant impact of the Multisensory Method after treatment. The researcher conducted research using a quantitative approach with consist pre-experimental design. The data was obtained by observing pre-test and post-test. Likewise, documentation was used to legitimize the data. The data result found that learning vocabulary for the young learner is easier to understand if the teacher applies a multisensory method (t value: 5.164) which is higher than t table 2.23. Hence, the multisensory method is an excellent method to be applied for kindergarten in the classroom.

Experimental Group

This study examined the impacts of using Compensatory Strategies (CSs) on speaking skill of Iranian EFL learners. To conduct this research, 50 Iranian intermediate EFL learners were chosen among 80 students and then, they were divided into two equal groups- one experimental group and one control group. The groups then were pretested by a speaking pre-test. After that, the participants of the experimental group were taught by using the CSs including approximation, appealing for the help, code switching, and time-gaining. On the other hand, the participants of the control group received traditional activities in learning speaking such as repetition and over-learning. After the treatment, both groups took the post-test of speaking. The results of paired and independent samples t-tests indicated that the experimental group outflanked the control group on the post-test. The results revealed that there was a significant difference between the performance of the experimental group and the control group on the post-test.

Depression in eldery couldn’t be easily detected because physical complaint was more often than emotional complaint. In severe case, depression could cause suicidal behaviour (Irawan, 2013). Therefore, elderly need assistance to deal with depression, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is one of the solution. Research design is pre-experimental design, using pre-test and post-test design. Before intervention, Geriatric Depression Scale test were given to one group of elder people. EFT intervention were given two times for four weeks, and Geriatric Depression Scale test were tested after intervention. Population was elder people who fulfill inclusion criterias, and 30 elderly were obatained. The significancy result was 0,000 (α = 0,05), it could be inferred that EFT has a strong relationship to depression scale. EFT could significantly reduce depression scale in elderly, so it can bes used effectively.

The Impact

This exploratory study examined the impact of implicit and explicit oral corrective feedback (CF) on the development of implicit and explicit knowledge of Japanese locative particles (activity de, movement ni and location ni) for those who directly received CF and those who observed CF in the classroom. Thirty-six college students in a beginning Japanese language course received either recast (implicit), metalinguistic (explicit) or no feedback during an information-gap picture description activity, and completed a timed picture description test (implicit knowledge) and an untimed grammaticality judgement test (explicit knowledge) in a pre-test, immediate post-test and delayed post-test. The results showed that overall there was no significant difference between CF types, and that CF benefited direct and indirect recipients similarly. Potential factors that might influence the effectiveness of CF, such as instructional settings, complexity of target structures and pedagogy styles, are discussed.
