COGNITIVE STRATEGY INSTRUCTION IN WRITING

Cognitive Strategy Instruction in Writing (CSIW) is a research
project conducted within the Institute for Research on Teaching at
Michigan State University (Carol Sue Englert, Taffy E. Raphael, and
Linda M. Anderson, codirectors). The goal of CSIW was the development
and implementation of an instructional intervention designed to enhance
students' abilty to compose and to comprehend content area text. The
intervention combined elements of process writing instruction and text
structure instruction. The development of the instructional
intervention grew out current research from a schema-theoretic tradition
that underscores the organization of information in text and memory, and
from a social-mediation model of instruction that stresses the role of
the teacher (i.e., more skilled) who scaffolds the instruction of the
less experienced, less skilled learner in the acquisition of new skills.
The CSIW project focused on both teacher and student
development. Thus, several related questions were addressed in the
project over the three year study. First, descriptive information was
gathered on the classrooms, teachers, and students in which the program
was to be embedded. During Year One, eight regular and eight special
education upper elementary classrooms were observed, teachers and
students were interviewed, and samples of students' writing, recall, and
ability to synthesize information from multiple sources were gathered.
During Year Two, pretest data were gathered on incoming students'
reading and writing abilities, the instructional intervention program
(including both staff development and classroom implementation) occurred
and was observed, and posttest data was gathered, including the
reading/writing samples, teacher and student interviews. In Year Three,
a subset of classrooms were observed and teachers interviewed to
determine what remains when researcher's formal involvement ends.
This colloquium will overview the CSIW project, and discuss
selected representative findings on changes in students' comprehension
and composition of informational text. Informal discussion will be
encouraged to consider the significance of the project and future
directions.

KIT-FAST: RESEARCH ON GPSG AT THE TU BERLIN
Stephan Busemann
Technical University of Berlin
Project Group KIT, Sekr. FR 5-12

KIT-FAST is an acronym for the German translation of 'Artificial
Intelligence and Text Understanding - Functor-Argument Structures for
Translation'. This is the name of the Berlin complementary research
project to EUROTRA-D, which is the German part of the EUROTRA machine
translation (MT) project of the European Community.
The goal of KIT-FAST is to test the formalism of generalized phrase
structure grammar (GPSG) for its usefulness in an MT system. This
task can be divided into two problems, the former concerning GPSG
itself and the latter its usage in an MT system: First, an
implementation of a theoretically adequate GPSG formalism for
syntactic processing of NL sentences must be provided. This task has
been achieved by now. Then, a semantic representation language must be
developed that defines the goal and source structures of parsing and
generation, respectively, and that serves as a basis for structural
transfer. This second task is presently being accomplished.
As for the first task, it seems promising to use GPSG for MT since
the structure of the formalism is very well suited to fit into the
architecture of an MT system. However, it seems practically
impossible to implement GPSG in its latest, 1985 version, which is
axiomatically defined and does not have a notion of processing. In
theory, such an implementation would involve a vast overgeneration of
structures as well as processes to filter out everything but the
admissible tree(s). We therefore adopted a more procedural view to
GPSG by developing a constructive version of it where information is
gathered in subsequent steps to produce syntactic structures. The main
idea was not to modify the formalism itself (though we had to modify
it to some extent) but to add a notion of processing to it.
The Berlin GPSG system represents our solution of the first
problem. It maintains the high degree of modularity of the original
version. The constructive formalism accounts for language-universal
generalizations and runs with different grammars expressing language-
specific generalizations. Moreover, since the formalism is independent
from, but well-suited to, processing, it is used by both the parser
and the generator. The grammars and the lexica are also used
bidirectionally.
This way the GPSG system will allow for parsing in one language
and, after exchanging the grammar, for generation in another language.
For this to be achieved, solutions of the second task have still to be
implemented.
The system is implemented in Waterloo Core Prolog and runs on an
IBM 4381 under VM/SP and on an AT under MS-DOS 3.20 (Arity-Prolog).
Earlier versions have also been transported to Quintus Prolog and
Symbolics Prolog. At present, a small English and a medium-sized
German grammar are implemented; the size of the lexica is small.

CHILDREN'S REORGANIZATION OF KNOWLEDGE
IN THE DOMAIN OF ASTRONOMY
3:00 p.m., Monday, October 17, 1988
2nd Floor Large Conference Room
BBN Laboratories Inc., 10 Moulton Street
Abstract: Some preliminary findings from an ongoing project on children's
acquisition of knowledge in the domain of astronomy will be presented.
The findings indicate that elementary school children's early beliefs
are consistent with their phenomenal explanation of a stationary flat earth
and an up and down movement of the sun and moon. These beliefs appear to
be quite resistant to change and rise to a number of misconceptions which
reveal children's difficulty to assimilate current scientific views.

THIS WEEK'S TINLUNCH
Readings: "Situation Semantics and Semantic Interpretation
in Constraint-Based Grammars" by Per-Kristian Halvorsen
and
"Projections and Semantic Description in Lexical-Functional Grammar"
by Per-Kristian Halvorsen and Ronald M. Kaplan
Discussion led by Mary Dalrymple
(maryd@ai.sri.com)
13 October
The semantic approach described in these papers differs from other
approaches in several ways. First, the relation between an utterance
and its meaning is expressed in terms of correspondences between
structures rather than in terms of a derivational relationship between
structures. There is no sense in which a representation is
transformed or analyzed to produce a second structure. Second,
semantic structure is seen as a description specifying the properties
of a semantic object, in contrast with approaches where the semantic
object itself is constructed during the derivation of the sentence.
Third, projections are used in representing the relation between the
semantic structure and other relevant structures in the analysis of an
utterance and are claimed to provide a perspicuous way of representing
this relationship.

STASS SEMINAR
Points of View in Situation Semantics
Yasuhiro Katagiri
Nippon Telegram and Telephone Corp.
Thursday, 20 October, 4:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Cordura Conference Room
In this talk, perspectival utterances, or utterances involving points
of view, are analyzed within the situation semantics framework. The
following two important features of those utterances are accounted for
by introducing notions of point-of-view situations and point-of-view
parameters along with a general picture of linguistic communication.
The two features are
(1) two-way dependence of utterances and points of view, and
(2) the fact that hearers normally take over speakers'
perspectives in comprehending perspectival utterances.
Relationships of the notion of perspectivity to quasi-indicators are
also discussed.
Copies of the full paper are available at the shelf behind the
receptionist's desk.

SYMBOLIC SYSTEMS FORUM
The Symbolic Systems Forum hosts talks and presentations on any
subject even tangentially related to symbolic systems: subjects
ranging from neurophysiology, to various theoretical aspects of
computation, to philosophical perspectives on the mind and knowledge,
to cognitive psychology, to artificial intelligence, to history of
computing, to connectionism, to linguistics and to semiotics. The
motivation behind the forum is twofold. First, the Forum seeks to
bring together some unifying picture of the similarities and
dissimilarities of the work in these disparate fields: it seeks to
build the grand unifying picture underlying the technical work in the
field. Second, the Forum attempts to raise various issues for
discussion and to encourage the exchange of ideas between faculty and
students. Ideally, as each student and faculty member brings to the
forum their particular experience and particular field of study, the
discussions at the Forum will give rise to new ideas. To participate,
either join the symbolic systems faculty or send your name and e-mail
address to hoffman@csli via e-mail to be put on the mailing list.
The Forum is open to the general public, and is held almost
every Friday in room 62N in Building 60 in the quad. This Friday,
14 October, Professor Ivan Sag will speak on linguistics and
symbolic systems, explaining how linguistics interrelates with the
other disciplines within symbolic systems and what role linguistics
plays within symbolic systems. In detail, with a heavy emphasis on
linguistics, he will cover how the methodologies of the four
departments have combined to develop a new field of symbolic
systems.
On Friday, 21 October, Professor John McCarthy will speak on
formalizing commonsense knowledge and reasoning into logic.
Professor McCarthy is one of the cofounders of artificial
intelligence and most of his work lies with logic.

The Resolution Problem for Natural Language Processing
Weeks 3 and 4: Psychological Processes
Herb Clark
(herb@psych.stanford.edu)
Thursday, 13 and 20 October
2:15
Today and next Thursday I will review part of what is known about the
process of resolving ambiguities and indeterminacies from work in
psychology. Today I will take up, among other things, the issues of
automaticity and modularity in resolving structural ambiguities--that
is, ambiguous words, attachment ambiguities, and other local parsing
ambiguities. The question is, how are these ambiguities resolved so
quickly and apparently automatically on the basis of lexical,
syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic information, and what does this say
about the process of understanding in general? Next week I will take
up the more pragmatic issues in resolution, such as how people resolve
references, illocutionary force, and implicatures, and how speakers
and listeners manage to do this collectively.
