Transfer functions are convenient representations to analyse cause-and-effect relationships of linear time-invariant dynamic systems. Traditionally, transfer functions are introduced using the Laplace transform. In this paper, we argue that the Laplace transform method is not a necessary prerequisite to understanding the topic 'transfer…

SPOC is being practiced and studied in an increasingly wider educational community. The literature has concentrated on reporting its pedagogical effectiveness measured by self-reported data of isolating learning components at the implementation phase within the domain of the immediate course site. By using a combination of quantitative and…

This study aimed to determine the effect of vocabulary instruction integrated with writing exercises on vocabulary learning, retention, and awareness. The research was designed according to the sequential explanatory mixed-method design, in which quantitative and qualitative methods were used together. A quasi-experimental model with a…
