This treatise aims to explore the evolution of pre-screening audition requirements for college music programs and demonstrate best practices for producing professional pre-screening audition recordings for graduate school, competitions, and music festivals. By learning and applying professional audio-video recording skills, students can learn to…

Previous research has established that children's experiences of language during in-person interactions (e.g. individual and cumulative experiences of structural choices) implicitly shape language learning. We investigated whether children also implicitly learn structural choices during online interactions, and whether this is affected by the…

A growing body of research has supported the implementation of innovative and immersive video for teaching and learning across the lifespan. Immersive video, delivered through eXtended Reality (XR) tools like 360 video, provides users with new ways to see real or created environments. Unfortunately, most of the existing research has highlighted…

Purpose: The current standard for clinical diagnosis of childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) is expert clinician judgment. The psychometric properties of this standard are not well understood; however, they are important for improving clinical diagnosis. The purpose of this study is to determine the extent to which experts agree on the clinical…

Multimodal assignments are becoming a prevalent strategy to enable assessment of student learning (Reid et al., 2016). However, due to their inherent complexity, supporting faculty members and students in adopting and implementing these types of assignments can be challenging (Wysocki et al., 2019). To overcome this, a group of 'third space'…

Visual access has long been considered crucial for interpreters, providing essential kinesic cues such as gaze and facial expressions that enhance understanding and emphasis. Despite its acknowledged importance, empirical studies examining the impact of visual access on interpreters' performance remain limited. To date, conclusive evidence…

As education is a global concern, utilising educational technology to facilitate teaching and learning activities has been widely practised almost everywhere at every minute for decades. Revisiting the historical development of a particular technology is noteworthy to education practitioners, historians and various interested parties. Concerning…

This systematic review investigates learner use of audio/video playback (AVP) controls in technology-enhanced listening environments. To this aim, 61 academic works produced from 2000-2021 underwent inclusion/exclusion criteria and were analyzed. The resulting corpus was made up of 16 peer-reviewed articles. We first situate the studies examined…

This conversation analytic study offers an empirical analysis of the Japanese turn-initial interjection "are." The interjectional "are" is said to be pragmatized from its use as a distal demonstrative and has been considered as an expression of a speaker's internal state of being surprised at something. In contrast, this study…

In the contemporary era, the concept of learning transcends the traditional classroom boundaries. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has revolutionized education, offering diverse avenues for lifelong learning. ICT plays a pivotal role in facilitating lifelong learning, empowering individuals to continuously acquire knowledge and…

This paper explores use of a set of diagrammatic tools for representation and analysis of the moves a teacher makes implementing a mathematical modelling task. The focus here is on identifying what the teacher did so we can subsequently interrogate this, as to the why. Data include pre and post lesson teacher interviews and transcripts of a video…
