Despite the importance of early writing development to children’s school success, research documents that early childhood teachers spend little time actively supporting children’s writing development in preschool classrooms. This article provides a framework for integrating writing experiences across the early childhood curriculum. Practical examples are given regarding how writing opportunities can be incorporated into existing activities and play settings. The metaphor of backgrounding and foregrounding writing experiences is used to illustrate ways that teachers can set writing rich environments and activities in a manner that makes it easier for teachers to bring these experiences into everyday learning opportunities. Attention is given to how teachers can bring writing to the foreground of the curriculum by drawing attention to writing materials, making natural connections with children’s interest and play, and scaffolding children’s early writing attempts and experiences.  相似文献

Multi-core microprocessors     

V Rajaraman 《Resonance》2017,22(12):1175-1192

Multi-core microprocessor is an interconnected set of independent processors called cores integrated on a single silicon chip. These processing cores communicate and cooperate with one another to execute one or more programs faster than a single core processor. In this article we describe how and why these types of processors evolved. We also describe the basics of how multi-core microprocessors are programmed.  相似文献

Crowdsourcing: A Platform for Crowd Engagement in the Publishing Industry     

Siti Ezaleila Mustafa  Hamedi Mohd Adnan 《Publishing Research Quarterly》2017,33(3):283-296

Publishers will usually make decisions based on their experience and knowledge in book publishing. However, there are risks of losses as markets can be unpredictable. Now, with the availability of various online social platforms, “crowdsourcing” is being used by publishers and authors to gather new ideas and innovations. This article will analyze how the crowdsourcing platform is used by industry players to attract active participation from the public, especially in the title development process. Publishers or authors also need to understand which platform is appropriate and how to use the platforms as a marketing communication tool. The netnography approach will be used to gather and analyze the data related to the specific subject area of the study, including literature review and online observation. Based on our observations, platforms such Wattpad and Ilham Karangkraf are popular among Malaysian authors and publishers, and had been used to get crowd engagement as well as to communicate with readers. With it, sometimes a work that has many readers or followers will be published.  相似文献
