This meta-analysis aims at investigating the effect of the flipped class model on learning performance. This research synthesized all relevant meta-analyses related to the flipped classroom model's impact on students' learning performance. The search yielded 32 meta-analyses that were published between 2012 and 2021. The current study analyzed 10…

Purpose: Phonetic training has been found to be an effective way on second language (L2) learning, but the evidence is not conclusive regarding the effectiveness of different instructional approaches and possible interactions between language learners, training features, and outcome measures. This study aims to meta-analyze existing studies to…

Background: It is important to capture a comprehensive language profile from speakers with aphasia. One way to do this is to evaluate spoken discourse, which is language beyond a single simple clause used for a specific purpose. While the historical trend in aphasiology has been to capture performance during isolated language tasks, such as…

The relationship between working memory (WM) and second-language (L2) reading has been extensively examined, with mixed results. Our meta-analysis models the potential impact of under-researched variables considered to moderate this relationship. Results from 74 studies (228 correlations) showed a significant, small relationship between WM and L2…

Background: Despite a great deal of studies on blended language learning, synthesized empirical evidence of its effects on language performance is still lacking. Objectives: To bridge the gap, this study aimed to meta-analyse the effects of blended language learning on EFL learners' language performance. Methods: Drawing on the framework of AT…

The present study performs a three-level meta-analysis to investigate the overall effectiveness of automated writing evaluation (AWE) on EFL/ESL student writing performance. 24 primary studies representing 85 between-group effect sizes and 34 studies representing 178 within-group effect sizes found from 1993 to 2021 were separately meta-analyzed.…

Spelling remains a fundamental skill to acquire because it is foundational for successful literacy attainment, even with the advancement of technological writing tools. Nevertheless, it is an understudied skill in research, especially among language learners. This literature review aims to shed light on the English spelling skills of Arabic L1…

Qualities of effective teachers matter because teachers are the number one school-related factor that impacts on student achievement. Although researchers in the United States have studied frameworks for evaluating teacher effectiveness, these frameworks are not focused on teachers working in international schools. Thus, they may not reflect the…

Chinese international students have consistently constituted the largest international student body in the United States (U.S.) higher education for decades. Due to their prominence in U.S. higher education institutions, it is imperative to closely examine their lived experiences. Existing empirical research demonstrates that plenty of Chinese…

This systematic review synthesizes evidence on the impact of integrating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and the flipped classroom model (FCM) on student motivation, engagement, and English language proficiency. Relevant studies from 2015 to 2023 were identified through electronic databases. Eligible studies examined the integration…

This meta-analysis included 27 empirical studies to explore the effectiveness of robot-assisted language learning (RALL) as well as the moderating effects of a number of variables. The comparison of 64 effect sizes from 2,637 participants indicated significant variability between the independent samples. The overall results showed that the…

Adult migrants need to attain proficiency in the language of their host society to fully integrate into those communities and lead meaningful lives. The concept of literacy, centred on reading and writing, has evolved to encompass multiliteracies, integrating linguistic, social, and digital aspects. This broader approach acknowledges that learners…

This systematic literature review (SLR) aimed to explore the theoretical frameworks used to comprehend parental involvement in ESL children's learning. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, the review analysed relevant articles published within the last five years (2019-2023) by…

Clinical Question: Do bilingual school-age children (P) who receive reading strategy alone interventions (I) show improvement in math word problems (O) relative to a multiple-target intervention or control condition (C)? Method: Systematic Review. Study Sources: PsycInfo®, Web of Science, JSTOR, PubMed, ERIC. Search Terms: "bilingual" OR…

The application of the language proficiency scales (LPS) in education validates its function, as it can explore the value in-depth. However, little systematic research on applying LPS has been conducted due to the complex intertwining of stakeholders and a lack of theoretical framework and practical approaches. Adopting the framework proposed by…
