Mark Romig – Studies in Applied Linguistics & TESOL, 2024
Although the role of grammar instruction is still highly debated within the field of second language acquisition and language pedagogy (Nassaji, 2017), explanations have emerged as fruit-bearing interactional phenomena that can illustrate the "how" of explicit grammar instruction (Fasel Lauzon, 2015; Hudson, 2011; Majlesi, 2018;…

Karen McNamara – English Australia Journal, 2024
Translanguaging, defined as "the deployment of a speaker's full linguistic repertoire without regard for watchful adherence to the socially and politically defined boundaries of named (and usually national and state) languages" (Otheguy et al., 2015, p. 281), has great potential to play a key role in English as a Second Language (ESL)…

Esmaeel Ali Salimi; Zhongfeng Tian; Alireza Ghasempour – Australian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2024
In the past decade, research on EFL teachers' beliefs about translanguaging has significantly grown. However, little qualitative research has been done on teachers' translanguaging beliefs and practices and the congruity between them. To address this gap in the literature, the current study investigated Iranian EFL teachers' beliefs and practices,…

Chinh Duc Nguyen; Anh T. Ton-Nu – Language Awareness, 2024
The teaching of English as an additional language or dialect (EALD) in Australia has been problematised partly due to teachers' limited understanding of learners' linguistic and cultural backgrounds. The gap could be potentially bridged with the integration of intercultural pragmatics (IP). Adopting a qualitative case study approach, this study…

Anna Metreveli – Critical Education, 2025
Vocational education and training (VET) programs in Sweden blend classroom instruction and internships, while coding bootcamps offer accelerated adult education in computer science. These institutions increasingly teach in English, mirroring the shift towards English-medium Instruction (EMI) in higher education. Consequently, most EMI scholarship…

Wedlock, Joshua – ORTESOL Journal, 2020
Although a range of authors have argued for the inclusion of swearing and taboo language in EFL/ESL curriculums (see Mercury, 1995; Horan, 2013; Holster, 2005; Liyanage, Walker, Bartlett, & Guo, 2015; Finn, 2017), to the best of my knowledge, no research has investigated how this could be done in a professional and pedagogically sound manner.…

Javier Rojas Serrano – GIST Education and Learning Research Journal, 2024
This action research report explores the effect of a "flipped learning" strategy on adult EFL students' speaking skills.

Mirzaei, Azizullah; Farhang, Maryam; Eslami, Zohreh – Iranian Journal of Language Teaching Research, 2023
Emergentist, usage-based L2 research has witnessed that emphasizing formulaic sequences as entry points in meaning-based instructional contexts contributes to the development of linguistic comprehension and production. Related studies have thus far striven to find the most effective methods of highlighting these word strings. This study explored…

Wonguk Cho – Critical Education, 2023
Critical Pedagogy (CP) has been carried out in many contexts, and reports of its success in language teaching in various countries have increasingly appeared (Bennet 2018; West 2014). However, South Korea (henceforth Korea) is not well-known for critical inquiry in language education, especially in private language institutions, so-called hagwon.…

Nine EFL learners worldwide participated in a task-based course in SL, using avatars to carry out…

Tipton, Whitney; Wideman, Stephanie – Journal of Communication Pedagogy, 2021
Students older than 25 years are a growing population on our campuses. However, separating these students and labeling them as "nontraditional" further isolates them from campuses that are already geared toward younger learners. This reflective essay explains the need for a philosophy of invitational andragogy--a classroom approach…

Coda, James; Cahnmann-Taylor, Melisa; Jiang, Lei – Journal of Language, Identity, and Education, 2021
The foreign language classroom affords conversations related to heteronormativity, language, and power, but instructional approaches often center upon discrete aspects of grammar and vocabulary. Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling (TPRS) disavows such approaches, instead utilizing personalized questions and co-created stories.…

Language Norms in L2 Education for Adult Migrants -- Translanguaging Pedagogy in the Age of Mobility
Norlund Shaswar, Annika – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2022
International mobility has caused a need for language education where adults can learn the language(s) used in their new country. In Sweden, the language programme SFI (Swedish for immigrants) provides basic second language education for adult immigrants. For those learners who are not yet functionally literate, basic literacy education is…
