However, while Chinese students are concentrating on learning the culture of Anglo-American English in the EFL classroom, the education of students’ own culture is neglected. The absence of Chinese traditional culture in the EFL classroom has become a serious problem in China’s tertiary English teaching. This paper assumes that the serious phenomenon might be accounted for from three aspects. In the first place, the present English textbooks seldom include materials introducing Chinese culture. Secondly, Chinese universities pay less attention to providing forum for students to exchange opinions on traditional culture and history; and thirdly, the learning resources about Chinese culture are poorly accessible. The paper also comes up with some solutions to this phenomenon in the ways of revising textbooks, giving optional courses related to cultural comparison, and making use of web resources.","PeriodicalId":90007,"journal":{"name":"Literacy information and computer education journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45481019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As part of a longer-term project to create objective and quantifiable measures for the learning of these competencies, we argue that the focus should be on the Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) that are associated with each competency. In this paper we present a theoretical constructivist analysis of one such EPA, that of patient handover, which is critical to patient safety. By applying an Activity Theory analysis to this EPA, we were able to identify, and thus quantify, key components of the EPA. Analysis of student performance on an online virtual patient simulation of a trauma case indicated that surgical clerkship students were able to correctly mention the majority of the procedures that expert surgeons indicated were most important, but only used less than a third of the professional terms that experts thought appropriate. This result points to a need to increase direct instruction in professional communication among medical learners, while demonstrating that Activity Theory provides an analysis that not only captures what is happening in the learning, but also can be used to develop objective and quantifiable assessment metrics.","PeriodicalId":90007,"journal":{"name":"Literacy information and computer education journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41692864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The primary focus of the current work is to explore the effectiveness of portfolio assessment in developing English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students’ reflective writing. In order to fulfill this objective, an experimental research design was conducted. The sample was composed of one hundred second year students of English at the University of Laghouat-Algeria. The data were collected through the following experimental tools: Interview, Pre-Post Writing Tests, and Pre/Post Self-Reporting Questionnaires. Students were asked to write about ten reflective topics which are drawn from their own experiences. The main findings demonstrated that reflective writings of students were improved after the use of portfolio assessment method and which confirms that portfolio assessment stratagem has significant effects in developing students’ reflective writing in terms of both process and product. And henceforth; this research suggests that portfolio assessment keeping deserves to be taken into consideration in the curriculum of EFL Teaching Departments in Algeria.","PeriodicalId":90007,"journal":{"name":"Literacy information and computer education journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47301867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, the study investigated the effect of financial knowledge, behaviour, and attitude on livelihood levels; and the mediating effect of financial systems on the link between financial behaviour and livelihood levels. Data was collected using questionnaires and semi-structured interview questions from 196 respondents. The regression results revealed that a combination of financial knowledge, attitude, behaviour, and systems significantly explains 14% of the variance in levels of livelihood (Adj. R Square =.140; Sig 0.007). This means that a change in the financial literacy level will lead to a change in livelihood levels. Of all the financial literacy dimensions, the results indicate that financial attitude significantly predicts livelihood levels (Beta = 0.498, sig = 0.000). This implies that for livelihood levels to improve a positive financial attitude should be developed. When the mediation tests were conducted, it was clear that financial systems mediate the relationship of financial knowledge and behaviour and livelihoods (Sobel Z-Value of 2.35, P-value 0.011). Generally, a positive financial attitude and the effectiveness of a financial system play a key role in influencing livelihood levels. Thus, action based, and experiential learning pedagogies should be embedded in financial literacy training for participants to improve their livelihoods.","PeriodicalId":90007,"journal":{"name":"Literacy information and computer education journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44988803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
