Welcometo the Writing Center's self-paced grammar modules. These modules will help you develop your grammar skills. Start by reviewing the module preview below, then try taking the diagnostic quiz to learn which module might be most beneficial to you.

The grammar diagnostic quiz contains 30-questions to test your knowledge of various English grammar rules related to (1) verbs, (2) nouns, pronouns, and articles, (3) modifiers, and (4) sentence structure basics, corresponding to each of the four grammar modules. Use the diagnostic quiz as a way to reflect on your own English grammar skills, as well as determine which grammar modules might benefit you the most.


Students who wish to declare a major or minor in the Department of Mass Communication at Sam Houston State University will be required to complete the MCOM Online Grammar Competency Lab and pass the Final Grammar Quiz with a score of 80 percent or better before they will be accepted into the program.


Students who declare a major or minor in MCOM or AG/COMM will be automatically enrolled in the Lab and will continue to be automatically registered in the Lab in subsequent semesters until the requirement is fulfilled.


All transfer students are required to fulfill this requirement. Transfer students may be allowed to register for 3000- and 4000-level classes during their first semester in the MCOM program, but after that time will not be allowed to register for any other upper-level classes in the program until they have completed the Lab requirement. Transfer students should consult with their advisers to ensure they are properly enrolled in the Lab before their first day of classes.


The Online Lab is offered free of charge to all SHSU students, and Lab enrollment includes a free, one-time, 14-day trial, which allows students to finish the requirement without purchasing access. Once the 14-day trial ends, students will be required to purchase a Lab Access Card at an online cost of approximately $15. Purchased Access Cards allow students access to the Grammar Lab for four years.


Processing of test scores typically takes three to seven days. There is no way to speed this process, and volume may cause delays. Students should be prepared to work proactively and test early in order to ensure timely registration for classes.


MCOM students who wish to improve their grades on the Final Quiz or boost their grammar skills may gain access to the Grammar Lab at any time by asking any instructor or professor in the MCOM department to add the Lab to their schedules.


I'm currently running both the latest version of python and latest version of pip, so I'm not quite sure what the issue may be. Is the module too outdated? I haven't been able to find another similar module if so.


You won't be able to directly install that distribution from PyPI under Python 3. However, looking at the GitHub repo linked in the project's description, there are manual steps for installing it in Python 3. Alternatively, you could try downloading a Python 2 wheel from PyPI and manually tweaking it to make it Python 3 compatible.


PCFG productions use the ProbabilisticProduction class.PCFGs impose the constraint that the set of productions withany given left-hand-side must have probabilities that sum to 1(allowing for a small margin of error).


A probabilistic context free grammar production.A PCFG ProbabilisticProduction is essentially just a Production thathas an associated probability, which represents how likely it is thatthis production will be used. In particular, the probability of aProbabilisticProduction records the likelihood that its right-hand side isthe correct instantiation for any given occurrence of its left-hand side.


Hello, My name is Rafael Salaberry. I am a professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at the University of Texas in Austin. I'm also the director of the language program in Spanish and Portuguese, and I oversee the work of about one hundred instructors in our program. In this module, I focus on the teaching amd learning of grammar. The main points I will try to make in this class are: One, that the explicit analysis of grammar is beneficial for second language learning. Two, that the analysis of language data, and in particular the learner's own production, is essential for students to reconceptualize grammar in the L2. And finally, three, that the most effective way of teaching grammar is the one that makes use of the full use of options of an inductive-deductive continuum of analysis.


Rafael Salaberry is Professor of Spanish Applied Linguistics and Second Language Aquisition at the University of Texas at Austin. Since 2006 he has been the Director of the Language Progam in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese.


The ast module helps Python applications to process trees of the Pythonabstract syntax grammar. The abstract syntax itself might change with eachPython release; this module helps to find out programmatically what the currentgrammar looks like.


An abstract syntax tree can be generated by passing ast.PyCF_ONLY_AST asa flag to the compile() built-in function, or using the parse()helper provided in this module. The result will be a tree of objects whoseclasses all inherit from ast.AST. An abstract syntax tree can becompiled into a Python code object using the built-in compile() function.


If these attributes are marked as optional in the grammar (using aquestion mark), the value might be None. If the attributes can havezero-or-more values (marked with an asterisk), the values are representedas Python lists. All possible attributes must be present and have validvalues when compiling an AST with compile().


Instances of ast.expr and ast.stmt subclasses havelineno, col_offset, end_lineno, andend_col_offset attributes. The lineno and end_linenoare the first and last line numbers of source text span (1-indexed so thefirst line is line 1) and the col_offset and end_col_offsetare the corresponding UTF-8 byte offsets of the first and last tokens thatgenerated the node. The UTF-8 offset is recorded because the parser usesUTF-8 internally.


Note that the end positions are not required by the compiler and aretherefore optional. The end offset is after the last symbol, for exampleone can get the source segment of a one-line expression node usingsource_line[node.col_offset : node.end_col_offset].


Deprecated since version 3.8: Old classes ast.Num, ast.Str, ast.Bytes,ast.NameConstant and ast.Ellipsis are still available,but they will be removed in future Python releases. In the meantime,instantiating them will return an instance of a different class.


Deprecated since version 3.9: Old classes ast.Index and ast.ExtSlice are stillavailable, but they will be removed in future Python releases.In the meantime, instantiating them will return an instance ofa different class.


A constant value. The value attribute of the Constant literal contains thePython object it represents. The values represented can be simple typessuch as a number, string or None, but also immutable container types(tuples and frozensets) if all of their elements are constant.


When an expression, such as a function call, appears as a statement by itselfwith its return value not used or stored, it is wrapped in this container.value holds one of the other nodes in this section, a Constant, aName, a Lambda, a Yield or YieldFrom node.


A named expression. This AST node is produced by the assignment expressionsoperator (also known as the walrus operator). As opposed to the Assignnode in which the first argument can be multiple nodes, in this case bothtarget and value must be single nodes.


A subscript, such as l[1]. value is the subscripted object(usually sequence or mapping). slice is an index, slice or key.It can be a Tuple and contain a Slice.ctx is Load, Store or Delaccording to the action performed with the subscript.


One for clause in a comprehension. target is the reference to use foreach element - typically a Name or Tuple node. iteris the object to iterate over. ifs is a list of test expressions: eachfor clause can have multiple ifs.


An assignment with a type annotation. target is a single node and canbe a Name, an Attribute or a Subscript.annotation is the annotation, such as a Constant or Namenode. value is a single optional node.


A for loop. target holds the variable(s) the loop assigns to, as asingle Name, Tuple, List, Attribute orSubscript node. iter holds the item to be looped over, againas a single node. body and orelse contain lists of nodes to execute.Those in orelse are executed if the loop finishes normally, rather thanvia a break statement.


A single case pattern in a match statement. pattern contains thematch pattern that the subject will be matched against. Note that theAST nodes produced for patterns differ from those produced forexpressions, even when they share the same syntax.


A match literal or value pattern that compares by equality. value isan expression node. Permitted value nodes are restricted as described inthe match statement documentation. This pattern succeeds if the matchsubject is equal to the evaluated value.


A match sequence pattern. patterns contains the patterns to be matchedagainst the subject elements if the subject is a sequence. Matches a variablelength sequence if one of the subpatterns is a MatchStar node, otherwisematches a fixed length sequence.


Matches the rest of the sequence in a variable length match sequence pattern.If name is not None, a list containing the remaining sequenceelements is bound to that name if the overall sequence pattern is successful.


A match mapping pattern. keys is a sequence of expression nodes.patterns is a corresponding sequence of pattern nodes. rest is anoptional name that can be specified to capture the remaining mapping elements.Permitted key expressions are restricted as described in the match statementdocumentation.


This pattern succeeds if the subject is a mapping, all evaluated keyexpressions are present in the mapping, and the value corresponding to eachkey matches the corresponding subpattern. If rest is not None, a dictcontaining the remaining mapping elements is bound to that name if the overallmapping pattern is successful.
