Yewon Sung; Ana C. Stephens; Ranza Veltri Torres; Susanne Strachota; Maria Blanton; Angela Murphy Gardiner; Rena Stroud; Eric Knuth – Grantee Submission, 2024
Across multiple age groups and academic disciplines, research has shown that incorporating multimodal signs into instruction can enhance student learning. For instance, gesture might be synchronized with speech or written signs. The present study reports on the semiotic resources used by a teacher-researcher to support kindergarten students'…

Stefano Presutti – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024
In an increasingly globalised and multilingual world, the use of different scripts in the same semiotic landscape is an increasingly frequent and widespread phenomenon. For this reason, it is vital to conduct research focusing on multiscriptality in order to better understand the linguistic and semiotic functions of the use of multiple scripts…

Alma Jahic Pettersson; Kristina Danielsson; Carl-Johan Rundgren – Research in Science Education, 2025
Previous research suggests that the use of metaphors in science education have both possibilities and challenges. In this study, we analyse the role of metaphors in meaning-making in the upper primary science classroom. We investigate the potential of metaphors about nutrient uptake occurring in classrooms in which an animation was used. To…

Steve Daniel Przymus – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2024
How we talk about bilingualism has an effect on how others think about bilingual individuals, and in turn, how "active bilingual learners/users of English" (ABLE) students are assessed and taught in schools. I use a transdisciplinary approach of bridging social semiotics, applied linguistics, psycholinguistics, and cognitive linguistics…

Shiyi Shen – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Language teachers in China often use picturebooks as complimentary teaching materials to standard textbooks for language instruction. However, research shows that current applications of picturebooks in Chinese English as a foreign language (EFL) classrooms mainly focus on helping students develop linguistic competence, with little attention on…

Nickie Wong – TESOL Journal, 2024
Contrary to prevailing research on willingness to communicate (WTC) which treats spoken second language (L2) as the predominant indicator of WTC, this study examines a young English as a second language (ESL) learner's WTC expressed through multimodal means and her utilization of multimodal and multilingual resources for mediating WTC in…

Alba Arias Álvarez – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2025
Migrant communities settle and appropriate spaces in their new home through deterritorialisation and reterritorialisation processes, which involve the reconceptualisation of the language and symbols of the homeland and those spoken and used in the diaspora. The public sphere is one of the most distinguishable places where this contextual relation…

Tracy Helliwell; Andreas Ebbelind – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2025
As mathematics teacher educators (MTEs), we are motivated by the lack of research concerning the language that MTEs use in initial teacher education settings. In this paper, we turn our attention towards developing a methodological approach to studying the language-in-use during teacher education situations, with a specific focus on the language…

Anneli Dyrvold; Ida Bergvall – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2024
This article explores how seven Swedish digital teaching platforms in mathematics make use of the affordances provided by various modalities and dynamic functions. A model based on social semiotics is used to analyse how dynamic functions are used, whether or not the language is technically oriented, if relational or operational processes are…

Adeelah Ayae; Kristof Savski – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024
Recent work on linguistic landscapes at schools (schoolscapes) has highlighted the complex dialogic relationship between the semiotics of public signage in educational spaces and policies seeking to enforce dominant ideologies. In this paper, we discuss the results of research conducted in the Deep South of Thailand, a minority region in which the…

Rachel McKee; Mireille Vale – Current Issues in Language Planning, 2024
This paper examines recent lexical expansion in New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) in the context of change in the status of the language and ongoing contact with other (spoken and signed) languages. We categorised 917 new signs documented in the past five years according to their source, semantic field, and sign formation mechanism(s), both…

Christian Fallas-Escobar; Ryan W. Pontier – Bilingual Research Journal, 2024
This study explored 17 bilingual teacher candidates' (bilingual TCs) representations of their lived experience of language via linguistic portraits. Specifically, attention was paid to the semiotic elements (space, place, time, and the body) these bilingual TCs employed and the ways this assemblage of elements formed raciolinguistic chronotopes.…

Yangzhao; Liana Mikhailovna Akhmetzyanova – Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2024
The intricate and tricky case of semantic analysis, especially of the enigmatic realm of nouns, the red thread of linguistics and literary exploration. This academic research explores the rich sphere of Russian literature in-depth to determine connections between function and the embodiment of theme through proper names. This research is aiming at…

Ayça K. Fackler; Ruth M. Harman – Science Education, 2025
Recent research has focused on innovative instructional shifts that aim to expand what constitutes science and engineering practices, exploring also how they can build on students' diverse language resources in science learning. However, few studies explore the intersections of elementary teacher preparation and the implementation of science and…

Uladzimir K. Slabin – International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education, 2025
As science education faces the urgent task of rehumanization amid growing technocratic rationality, scientific eponyms, especially in literary contexts, offer a potential of rehumanization for value-based science education. To explore this potential, selected passages referencing the eponym "Landolt tables" from the short story…
