Enhancing General and Academic L2 Writing Complexity Through Dialogue Journal Writing: The Role of Learners' Motivational Beliefs

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Writing is crucial in tertiary education, yet enhancing the complexity of academic writing presents significant challenges for second language (L2) learners. This study explores the potential of dialogue journal writing (DJW), an interactive and low‐stress classroom activity, to enhance writing complexity among novice L2 writers.

Incidental Acquisition of Multiword Expressions Through Repeated Viewing: Sequential Use of L1 and L2 Captions

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Repeated viewing is reportedly a common learning and pedagogical strategy among autonomous second language (L2) learners and language teachers. This experimental study examined the extent to which sequential captioning use facilitates the acquisition of multiword expressions (MWEs) through repeated viewing under incidental learning conditions.

A variant of Newton's method for generalized equations

open access: yes, 2005
Summary: In this article, we study a variant of Newton's method of the following form \[ 0\in f(x_k)+ h\nabla f(x_k) (x_{k+1}-x_k)+ F(x_{k+1}), \] where \(f\) is a function whose Fréchet derivative is \(K\)-Lipschitz, \(F\) is a set-valued map between two Banach spaces \(X\) and \(Y\) and \(h\) is a constant.

A local Minimax-Newton method for finding . . .

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper, a local minimax-Newton method is developed to solve for multiple saddle points. The local minimax method [15] is used to locate an initial guess and a version of the generalized Newton method is used to speed up convergence. When a problem

A comparison of red fox Vulpes vulpes activity and gamebird diet on gamebird release sites and on nearby non‐release areas in southern England

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Driven game shoots in the UK lowlands commonly release several thousand pheasants Phasianus colchicus and red‐legged partridges Alectoris rufa in late summer, which is likely to attract the attention of the main generalist predator, the red fox. Game managers try to protect their releases by culling foxes.
