    Object drop in L3 acquisition

    No full text
    The topic of cross-linguistic differences regarding the overt or null expression of arguments has been considered both in first (L1) and second language (L2) acquisition. There is abundant literature on both subject and object drop with different language pairings but the issue has not been considered in third language (L3) acquisition. The main goal of this article is to analyse the L3 interlanguage of Basque-Spanish bilinguals regarding the acceptability and interpretation of null objects. The three languages involved in the study display different semantic requirements for the target structure, with Basque allowing for a null object option across-the-board, Spanish only under certain semantic conditions, and English disallowing it in the standard variety. Two trilingual, one bilingual and a control group (n = 119) rated experimental items embedded in context, presented in a written and aural format on a computer screen. Findings point to the successful acquisition of the target structure, as well as a clear influence of Spanish in the three experimental groups

    Modelling of switching dynamics in electrical systems

    No full text
    In this paper, we use the switched linear differential systems framework [8] to model electrical devices with switching dynamics. Modularity, i.e. independent modelling and incremental combination of complex dynamics, is an important feature of this approach, since we can incorporate new dynamic modes to the bank without altering the existing ones. This makes our approach ideal for describing complex systems (e.g. energy distribution networks). Our modelling approach differs fundamentally from the traditional representation-based theory where the use of a global state space is required

    Antonio Gramsci’s impact on critical pedagogy

    No full text
    This paper provides an account of Antonio Gramsci’s impact on the area of critical pedagogy. It indicates the Gramscian influence on the thinking of major exponents of the field. It foregrounds Gramsci's ideas and then indicates how they have been taken up by a selection of critical pedagogy exponents who were chosen on the strength of their identification and engagement with Gramsci's ideas, some of them even having written entire essays on Gramsci. The essay concludes with a discussion concerning an aspect of Gramsci's concerns, the question of powerful knowledge, which, in the present author's view, provides a formidable challenge to critical pedagogues.peer-reviewe
