Hello, how are you? I hope you are in the good condition. In this post, i would like to continue my review about book The Master Key System chapter 5-8. Chapter 5 In this chapter, we learn about how the subconscious processes are continually at work, and how we may consciously direct this work instead of being passive recipients of its activity.

In this post, i would like to continue my review about journal Smart subtitle for Vocabulary Learning. Now i would review the method that used in this journal. Journal Description Title : Smart Subtitle for Vocabulary Learning Writers : Geza Covacs & Robert C. Miller Year of Publication : - Country : China Language : English ABSTRACT Language learners often use subtitled videos to help them learn.

This paper presents Smart Subtitles, which are interactive subtitles tailored towards vocabulary learning. Smart Subtitles can be automatically generated from common video sources such as subtitled DVDs. They provide features such as vocabulary definitions on hover, and dialog-based video navigation.
