Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

There are an increasing number of foreign language teaching techniques that integrate with the latest technology, such as computers, video materials. As the emphasis in multimedia shifts to success for all language learners, educators tend to carry out various techniques to demonstrate benefits. Presenting subtitles aids visual channels to communicate verbal information. The presenter examines whether video English captions improve or impede EFL students’ reading comprehension.Using the instructional videos with English subtitles 1hour every 2 weeks over 10 weeks. Two versions of videos, one with captioning and one without it, were used by two groups randomly selected among freshmen at the university in Taiwan. Reading comprehension test- General English Proficiency Test (GEPT) – intermediate- was administered by participants in order to determine the influences of using subtitles on learners’ reading comprehension.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
