Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X
1 Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X "Most ideas come from previous ideas." Alan Curtis Kay The Mac OS X operating system represents a rather successful coming together of paradigms, ideologies, and technologies that have often resisted each other in the past. A good example is the cordial relationship that exists between the command-line and graphical interfaces in Mac OS X. The system is a result of the trials and tribulations of Apple and NeXT, as well as their user and developer communities. Mac OS X exemplifies how a capable system can result from the direct or indirect efforts of corporations, academic and research communities, the Open Source and Free Software movements, and, of course, individuals. Apple has been around since 1976, and many accounts of its history have been told. If the story of Apple as a company is fascinating, so is the technical history of Apple's operating systems. In this chapter,[1] we will trace the history of Mac OS X, discussing several technologies whose confluence eventually led to the modern-day Apple operating system. [1] This book's accompanying web site (www.osxbook.com) provides a more detailed technical history of all of Apple's operating systems. 1 2 2 1 1.1. Apple's Quest for the[2] Operating System [2] Whereas the word "the" is used here to designate prominence and desirability, it is an interesting coincidence that "THE" was the name of a multiprogramming system described by Edsger W. Dijkstra in a 1968 paper. It was March 1988. The Macintosh had been around for four years.

The Unrealized Potential of Rosetta Stone, Duolingo, Babbel, and Mango Languages
24 Issues and Trends in Educational Technology Volume 5, Number 1, May. 2017 L2 Pronunciation in CALL: The Unrealized Potential of Rosetta Stone, Duolingo, Babbel, and Mango Languages Joan Palmiter Bajorek The University of Arizona Abstract Hundreds of millions of language learners worldwide use and purchase language software that may not fully support their language development. This review of Rosetta Stone (Swad, 1992), Duolingo (Hacker, 2011), Babbel (Witte & Holl, 2016), and Mango Languages (Teshuba, 2016) examines the current state of second language (L2) pronunciation technology through the review of the pronunciation features of prominent computer-assisted language learning (CALL) software (Lotherington, 2016; McMeekin, 2014; Teixeira, 2014). The objective of the review is: 1) to consider which L2 pronunciation tools are evidence-based and effective for student development (Celce-Murcia, Brinton, & Goodwin, 2010); 2) to make recommendations for which of the tools analyzed in this review is the best for L2 learners and instructors today; and 3) to conceptualize features of the ideal L2 pronunciation software. This research is valuable to language learners, instructors, and institutions that are invested in effective contemporary software for L2 pronunciation development. This article considers the importance of L2 pronunciation, the evolution of the L2 pronunciation field in relation to the language classroom, contrasting viewpoints of theory and empirical evidence, the power of CALL software for language learners, and how targeted feedback of spoken production can support language learners. Findings indicate that the software reviewed provide insufficient feedback to learners about their speech and, thus, have unrealized potential. Specific recommendations are provided for design elements in future software, including targeted feedback, explicit instructions, sophisticated integration of automatic speech recognition, and better scaffolding of language content.

Duolingo Effectiveness Study
Duolingo Effectiveness Study FINAL REPORT RESEARCH TEAM ROUMEN VESSELINOV, PhD Visiting Assistant Professor Queens College City University of New York [email protected] JOHN GREGO, PhD Professor and Chair Statistics Department University of South Carolina [email protected] December 2012 Duolingo Effectiveness Study Page 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The research study of Duolingo effectiveness was independently conducted in September- November of 2012. The study lasted for approximately eight weeks. A random representative sample was selected from Duolingo users who studied Spanish. The participants were at least 18 years of age, native speakers of English, not from Hispanic origin and not advanced users of Spanish, and all of the participants resided in the United States The participants took one college placement Spanish language test in the beginning of the study and one test at the end of the study. The test results were measured in points (the higher the better). The improvement of language abilities was measured as the difference between the final and the initial language test results. The effectiveness of Duolingo was measured as language improvement per one hour of study. MAIN RESULTS • Overall the average improvement in language abilities was 91.4 points and the improvement was statistically significant. • The effectiveness measure showed that on average participants gained 8.1 points per one hour of study with Duolingo. • The 95% Confidence Interval for the effectiveness is from 5.6 points to 10.7 points gained per one hour of study. • The study estimated that a person with no knowledge of Spanish would need between 26 and 49 hours (or 34 hours on average) to cover the material for the first college semester of Spanish.

Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 192 ( 2015 ) 260 – 266 2nd GLOBAL CONFERENCE on LINGUISTICS and FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING, LINELT-2014, Dubai – United Arab Emirates, December 11 – 13, 2014 The Effect of Rosetta Stone Computer Software on Vocabulary Learning of Iranian Elementary EFL Learners Marzieh Sharifia, Akbar Azizifar*a, Ali Jamalinesarib, Habib Gowharya aDepartment of English language Teaching, Ilam Branch,Islamic Azad University, Ilam, Iran bDepartment of English language and Literature, Ilam Branch, Islamic Azad University, Ilam, Iran Abstract In recent years, computer technology has been widely used for educational purposes. In fact, more and more teachers are using computers and the Internet in their classrooms. We’ve seen an enormous growth in the number of teachers using multimedia applications for foreign language teaching and learning. This study examines the effect of multimedia on vocabulary learning of elementary Iranian EFL learners. To achieve this purpose, 60 students were selected randomly among 85 students in a private institute in Sarableh city. These students were given the Solutions Placement Test in order to validate their proficiency levels. These participants were then randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. Prior to the treatments, two groups sat for pre-tests. Then the students were exposed to the treatments for sixteen sessions; that is, the words list which was selected from the students’ books were taught to the subjects. These words were taught to the experimental group using the multimedia software “Rosetta stone” while they were taught to the control groups using the Teacher-led Method (TLM). After the treatments, two groups sat for post-tests.

The Use of Apps in Foreign Language Education: a Survey-Driven Study
North Texas Journal of Undergraduate Research, Vol. 1, No. 1, 2019 The Use of Apps in Foreign Language Education: A Survey-Driven Study Caleb Powers1* Abstract The purpose of this study was to understand why advancements in technology were not being implemented in foreign language education and how those new technologies could improve foreign language education. This study surveyed 114 foreign language students in order to gain information on how they used technology to learn a foreign language. The questions on the survey related to the topics of attitudes toward technology in general, the students’ accessibility and academic/personal use of technology tools, and their awareness and usage of specific foreign language learning mobile apps. It was found that apps like Duolingo, Rosetta Stone, and Babbel are more often used than other language learning apps, they fulfill crucial elements of education, and students prioritize facility of use, accessibility, and price when deciding whether to keep an app or not. Keywords Computer-Assisted Language Learning — Duolingo — Babbel —Rosetta Stone 1Department of World Languages, Literatures and Cultures, University of North Texas *Faculty Mentor: Dr. Lawrence Williams Contents language acquisition?
