Juana María Anguita-Acero; Oscar Navarro-Martinez; Lauren Rebecca Jordan – European Journal of Education, 2024
At present, developmental dyslexia is classified as a specific language disorder recognised by inclusive educational laws in Spain and the United Kingdom. Phonological correspondence is very different in Spanish and in English, and the difficulties they entail for native speakers are also different. The predominance of English worldwide has led to…

María Luquin; María del Pilar García Mayo – Studies in Second Language Learning and Teaching, 2025
This study investigated how the inclusion of model texts as a feedback technique affected students' task motivation and engagement in writing tasks. Adopting a longitudinal design, 60 English as a foreign language (EFL) children (aged 11-12) were divided into three groups: a treatment group, a long-term treatment group, and a control group. The…

Hanne Roothooft; Amparo Lázaro-Ibarrola; Bram Bulté – Language Teaching Research, 2025
Second language (L2) writing research has demonstrated that young learners discuss linguistic issues, make use of feedback, and show a generally positive disposition toward writing tasks. However, many issues deserve further investigation. Regarding task implementation, few studies have been conducted with young learners writing individually, and…

Almudena Fernández-Fontecha; Rosa Mª Jiménez Catalán; James Ryan – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024
Research is scarce about the lexical processes undertaken by thousands of L2 learners worldwide who already command one or more languages. Some aspects involved in lexical organisation and production, such as clustering and switching, have been traditionally approached through manual methods, which depend on subjective judgments of semantic…

Geòrgia Pujadas; Carmen Muñoz – Studies in Second Language Learning and Teaching, 2024
The extent to which L2 television is viewed by foreign language learners will depend on the degree to which it is understood. The addition of captions has been shown to support comprehension (e.g., Birulés-Muntané & Soto-Faraco, 2016; Montero-Perez, Peters, & Desmet, 2014), especially when proficiency is low (e.g., Lavaur & Bairstow,…

Rodríguez-Cuadrado, Sara; Ojedo, Fernando; Vicente-Conesa, Francisco; Romero-Rivas, Carlos; Sampedro, Miguel Ángel Carlos; Santiago, Julio – Second Language Research, 2023
Several studies have explored the use of iconic gestures to improve the learning of foreign vocabulary. In this quest, words for abstract concepts have been largely neglected, under the assumption that abstract concepts have poor or non-existent sensory-motor representations. Yet, the Conceptual Metaphor Theory suggests that they are grounded on…

Aitor Garcés-Manzanera – Language Teaching Research Quarterly, 2024
Learning a second language (L2) is dependent upon numerous external and internal factors, among which motivation plays a relevant role. In fact, motivation has been recognized as crucial in the L2 learning process (Ushioda, 2012). Such has been its importance that interest in L2 motivation has led to the development of theories such as the L2…

Oksana Polyakova – Language Learning in Higher Education, 2024
Adapting engineering education to a sustainable ESP (English for Special Purposes) training and competence-based education requires dedicated effort. Although active learning methodologies are commonly utilised in Higher Education institutions, there remains a need for enhanced curricular coordination and coherence. To address this, we are…

Sánchez-Pérez, María del Mar – Studies in Second Language Learning and Teaching, 2023
This study analyzes the influence of English medium instruction (EMI) on student English writing development in a Spanish undergraduate context, a language skill that remains underexplored in EMI research at tertiary level. Through a longitudinal pre- and post-test method, it explores the writing progress of EMI engineering students as compared to…

Concepción Soto; Monika S. Schmid – Language Learning Journal, 2024
Despite the extensive research on bilingual development, our understanding of how lexical competition unfolds in the bilingual mind remains limited. Previous studies have predominantly focused on crosslinguistic competition, neglecting the examination of the competition process within each language and the influence of diverse bilingual…

Pilar Rodríguez-Arancón; María Bobadilla-Pérez; Alberto Fernández-Costales – Journal for Multicultural Education, 2024
Purpose: This study aims to delve into the interplay between didactic audiovisual translation (DAT) and computer-assisted language learning (CALL), exploring their combined impact on the development of intercultural competence (IC) among learners of English as a foreign language (EFL). Design/methodology/approach: Using a quasi-experimental…

de la Cruz-Pavía, Irene; Elordieta, Gorka; Villegas, Julián; Gervain, Judit; Laka, Itziar – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022
In two artificial language learning experiments with four groups of highly proficient Basque-Spanish bilinguals and two groups of Spanish monolinguals, we examine the cues that allow adult listeners to parse new input into phrases. In addition, we investigate which factors lead bilinguals to switch between the segmentation strategies…

Lasagabaster, David; Doiz, Aintzane – Language, Culture and Curriculum, 2023
English-medium instruction (EMI) programmes have been mushrooming in the last two decades as part of the internationalisation processes. However, the rapid implementation of EMI has outpaced research in many different areas, classroom interaction being one of them. Since classroom interaction is an indication of quality teaching, the analysis of…

Ana Llinares; Tarja Nikula – Language and Education, 2024
This article presents findings from an empirical study in which we investigated Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) students' linguistic resources in the L2 (English) to convey different Cognitive Discourse Functions (Dalton-Puffer 2013; 2016)--"Describe, Compare (Categorize), Report, Evaluate" and "Explore"--in two…

Rocío Márquez Garrido; María-Elena Gómez-Parra; Cristina A. Huertas-Abril – Interpreter and Translator Trainer, 2024
In a global context increasingly prone to e-learning formats at all levels of education, especially in and after the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the acquisition of skills in distance learning programmes should not differ from the ones in onsite learning programmes. The main objective of this study is to analyse the perception that master's…
