Majid Elahi Shirvan; Esmaeel Saeedy Robat; Abdullah Alamer; Nigel Mantou Lou; Elyas Barabadi – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Second language (L2) learners' beliefs about the nature of language learning, specifically language mindsets, is a recent productive line of L2 research. Researchers argue that language mindsets are key factors for language learning success. However, the association between language mindsets and different language learning outcomes is inconsistent…

Lu Yang; Rui Li – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
While studies of contextualized game-based language learning (CGBLL) have to date gained a growing scholarly interest, there is still a lack of systematic review synthesizing its research trends regarding theoretical foundations, learning contexts, research foci and findings. To address the gap, this study collected data from the Web of Science…

Ann-Marie Hunter – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2024
This paper reports on the impact of an English as a Second Language (ESL) speaking activity--"the poster carousel"--on English learners' second language (L2) fluency. Two versions of the poster carousel were developed to observe the effect of talking about (a) the same poster three times (same-task repetition) or (b) three different…

Esra Karan Aynagoz; Burcu Unal – Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education, 2024
Technology-enhanced learning environments (TELEs) have provided language learners with various opportunities to promote their self-sufficient learning outside the classroom lately. Thus, language learners are no longer passive recipients of language; in contrast, they are autonomous learners who apply self-regulated learning strategies through the…

Natalie G. Koval – ELT Journal, 2024
Statistical significance and averages are two pieces of statistical information that are often presented as evidence in support of researchers' conclusions and teaching recommendations. In this article, I consider interpretation of this information as research evidence for ELT. In simple terms that will be accessible even to readers without any…

Saman Ebadi; Maryam Amiri – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
Researchers, parents, and policymakers from previous generations have recently expressed concern about the inevitable exposure of youngsters to digital media and its potentially detrimental effects on their development. Private speech is the overt audible self-talk people produce when engaged with challenging problem-solving tasks and is believed…

Ruofei Zhang; Di Zou; Gary Cheng – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Research on technology-enhanced language learning (TELL) has been rapidly growing since 2000, of which the attention is mostly on the statistically significant positive results. However, learning from TELL with null and negative results (NNR), especially its features and reasons, can develop knowledge and awareness of the nature and limitations of…

Jiwon Hwang; Eriko Sato; Agnes W. He – Foreign Language Annals, 2024
As the objective of language teaching is shifting from producing so-called "native-like" speakers to fostering speakers competent in intercultural communication, it has become necessary to identify the kinds of learning resources that may be related to the learner's development of intercultural communicative competence (ICC) in today's…

Zachary F. Miller; Dustin Crowther – Foreign Language Annals, 2024
Specialized learning institutions (SLIs) feature organizational cultures, learning environments, and Postgraduation expectations that typically differ from traditional 4-year universities. For students pursuing foreign language (FL) study within an SLI, coursework is frequently accompanied by a range of nonacademic tasks that are required for…

Yi-chen Chen – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Augmented Reality (AR) is believed a suitable teaching method for beginning-level Chinese as a Foreign Language (CFL) learners in learning Chinese characters, as the effects of AR on visualization may enhance recognition of pictographic characters and the integration of multimedia may facilitate comprehension of this logographic language. Yet the…

Robin E. Harvey; Kevin M. Wong – Journal of Early Childhood Literacy, 2024
Rich oral language practices, including the opportunity and ability to participate in cognitively and linguistically challenging extended discourse, are foundational to early literacy development. To meet children's needs in their first exposure to the languages of schooling, educators may engage students in extended discourse multilingually. The…

Mats Deutschmann; Justin Zelime; Angeline Mbogo Barrett; Eliakimu Sane; Maryam Jaffar Ismail – European Educational Research Journal, 2024
A prerequisite for learning is that instructions and other learning activities take place in a language that you understand. This may seem self-evident, but fact remains that most learners in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are taught in a European second language (L2) that they are unfamiliar with. Frequently, the role of the home languages in the…

This article analyses how ChatGPT may be used in L2 pronunciation teaching and learning, especially when explicit pronunciation instruction is integrated into a communicative approach to language teaching. The possible use of ChatGPT for production practice, listening practice, and obtaining explanations and examples of target L2 features is…

Studying Latin in secondary education is still widespread in Europe and believed to result in cognitive benefits, even beyond the linguistic domain. In this study we explored the relation between such study and later academic achievement in higher education (N = 1,898). First, we demonstrated that Latin students exhibit increased levels of study…

Liang Ye Tan; Stuart McLean; Young Ae Kim; Joseph P. Vitta – Language Testing in Asia, 2024
This study examines how second/foreign language (L2) word difficulty estimates derived from item response theory (IRT) and classical test theory (CTT) frameworks are virtually identical in the context of vocabulary testing. This conclusion is reached via a two-stage process: (a) psychometric assessments of both approaches and (b) L2 word…
