Judith Borràs; Àngels Llanes – Journal of Language, Identity, and Education, 2024
Performing a stay in a country where the L2 is the official language can provide the perfect immersion for L2 development (traditional study abroad). In the case of English learners, internationalization and the role of English as a lingua franca make it unnecessary to perform the stay in an English-speaking country. Hence, an increasing number of…

de Berg, Anna – Research-publishing.net, 2019

Motzo, Anna – Research-publishing.net, 2016
Motivation is one of the most important factors which influences second language learning (Dörnyei, 1998; Gardner & Lambert, 1972). A support mechanism which reinforces student motivation through encouragement, social interaction, feedback, sound learning environments and good teaching is crucial for ensuring successful learning. This is…

El-Ebyary, Khaled; Windeatt, Scott – International Journal of English Studies, 2010
InWhile research in second language writing suggests that instructor feedback can have a positive influence on students' written work, the provision of such feedback on a regular basis can be problematic, especially with larger student numbers. A number of computer programs that claim to provide both automatic computer-based holistic scores and…

East, Martin – Language Testing, 2007
Whether test takers should be allowed access to dictionaries when taking L2 tests has been the subject of debate for a good number of years.
