This paper explores situations in which interfaces may be improved or simplified by switching feedback modalities. Due to availability of and familiarity with audio/visual technologies, many interfaces provide feedback via audio/visual pathways when a haptic pathway would best serve. The authors present a series of interface designs in which simple and

In a narrow sense it studies the way in which the linguistic properties of an utterance interact with its context to provide situational interpretations for the recipient of the utterance.

In this chapter we discuss the possible applications of pragmatics to biolinguistic issues. In particular, it notes that pragmatics as a discipline is related to the absolute variability of cultural content and can be considered foreign to biolinguistics.

Pragmatics and Pragmatic Considerations in Explanation

In order to understand pragmatic considerations regarding explanation, I utilize the work of Bas C. van Fraassen, Peter Achinstein, and Jan Faye. These

These four aspects are arranged according to their level of simplicity and contentiousness, from the simple and less contentious to the complex and highly contentious ...

Posthumanism, simply put, shifts the focus of research and politics away from humans; like Chakrabarty’s (2000) call to ‘provincialize Europe’, it pushes humans to the margins. The challenges posed by human destructiveness, environmental degradation, climate change, population growth, resource scarcity, urbanization, diminishing resources, our ...
