For non-Natives, understanding that they are not the boss, allowing the Native community to dictate the program and pace, and cultivating the patience to establish trust with the community are the only ways to weather the cultural differences.
If yes, at what level of education should "understanding non-native accents" become part of the construct of listening?
No active engagement learner was clustered in this course which might due to the course was designed for proficient English speakers, thus hindered non-native English speaking students from understanding learning materials.
Despite efforts to keep the wording of QUADAS simple to increase international applicability, two non-native English speakers had some difficulty in understanding the QUADAS background document.
In our understanding (of course, as non-native speakers), the term "mutant protein" does not state that the protein itself was mutated ("mutated protein" would be surely incorrect).
Correct identification of species and their origins permits access to published information on their biology and ecology in their native habitats, which could be useful in understanding the tolerances, potential non-native ranges, and possible impacts as invasive species.
The researchers then told the subjects up front that difficulty in understanding leads people to distrust non-native speakers.
As a non-Native anthropologist, though, I'm mostly interested in understanding Chiwere and why people would want to revitalize it — and assisting those efforts, if I'm invited to participate.
We do not expect, however, that these findings will cause a change in orthoptic clinics, but it may support orthoptists working in ethnically diverse, low-SES areas in better understanding the compliance behavior of non-native patients.
Given the success in engineering synthetic phenotypes in microbes and mammalian cells, constructing non-native pathways in mammals has become increasingly attractive for understanding and identifying potential targets for treating metabolic disorders.
Given the likelihood of hybridization between lineages, a better understanding of plant traits in native, non-native and hybrid lineages is needed to manage current invasions and to predict the outcome of interactions among novel genotypes.
