“…The study will also try to determine the participants' level of acceptance of the CBI teaching model. This study is based on two notions: the principles and basic concepts of Content Based Instruction (Mohan, 1986) and two fundamental questions in Chinese college English majors and college English teaching reform: 1. What is taught, what courses are offered; 2.…”

“…Basing language teaching on content is not a new idea. However, the approach that has come to be known as CBI first appeared in the mid-1980s with the publication of Bernard Mohan's work, Language and Content (Mohan, 1986). The CBI model has been widely used in language teaching since its origin in Europe and America.…”

CBI (Content Based Instruction) teaching is to transform a single language skill teaching method into a teaching method that integrates content and language as a whole. The main aim of this research is to know the actual implementation of the CBI model in university English classrooms in mainland China through scientific research methods. It will look at the perceived effectiveness of the CBI model and the challenges of implementing the CBI model. Based on the research purpose, this research explores the following research questions: how much students and teachers understand the basic concepts of CBI; the benefits and challenges of implementing CBI teaching methods in university English classrooms in mainland China. A review of selected literature briefly examines Input Hypothesis and Zone of Proximal Development. The data comes from questionnaires and in-depth interviews. The results seem to show that CBI can effectively improve students' English level, but there are many problems in the specific implementation process. The evaluation of CBI pedagogy needs to start from the perspective of teachers and students. It also emphasized the importance of the basic concepts of CBI. This research will help those students and teachers in the Chinese universities who would like to adopt CBI model and also the people who want to know the real situation of CBI model in the English classroom in China universities.

“…Such entropy is based upon the distances between all possible point pairs of selected set (analogy with fully connected graph where all point pairs are linked by the edges is noticeable here). As befits for traditional entropy [12], its maximum value is achieved upon equality of all opportunities, in this case distances act as such. If they are equal, then entropy is ultimate.…”

In this paper, the ordering of the arrays of TiO2 nanotubes obtained by the method of anodic oxidation in the fluoro-containing aqueous-nonaqueous electrolytes containing glycerine and surface-active materials is investigated. For analysis of ordering, the two-dimensional Fourier spectrum, do-it-yourself configurational geometrical entropy and section of the two-dimensional autocorrelation function were used. These characteristics allow us to identify a nature of ordering in sufficient detail and to obtain the preliminary quantitative assessments of this order. It is found that, in the systems of titanium-oxide nanotubes, the stable, almost correct short-range order is established within the first coordination sphere. Such order is similar to the amorphous ordering. At the same time, the ordering of nanotubes arrays differs in detail from the amorphous one in the greater expressiveness of the typical scale the sizes of which can be estimated using the Fourier spectra as well as autocorrelation function.

“…The E-R model views the world as consisting of entities and relationships. The model achieves a high degree of data independence, which means that applications are immune to changes in storage structure and access strategy (Date, 1986). It is based on set theory and relational theory w'hich formulates the definition of a desired relation in terms of those given relations.…”
