A Novel Criticality Analysis Method for Assessing Obesity Treatment Efficacy

Applied Sciences, 2023
Human gait is a significant indicator of overall health and well-being due to its dependence on metabolic requirements. Abnormalities in gait can indicate the presence of metabolic dysfunction, such as diabetes or obesity. However, detecting these can be

Criticality in EAP Education in Iran: a missing link [PDF]

Journal of English Language Teaching and Learning, 2022
Despite its importance, a review of the related literature reveals not many studies have examined criticality in EAP. Accordingly, in the present study, whether critical approaches were followed in Iranian EAP classes were investigated among EAP teachers
