Instructional technology in courses of K-12 level for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners demonstrates numerous benefits for their learning, including increased engagement and improved academic outcomes. However, integrating technology into teaching practices heavily relies on teachers' competence in technology. Even though teacher…

Within educational research, there has been an increased interest in recent years to develop learners' language awareness (LA) in the context of plurilingual education. Recommendations and intentions are given pointing to the benefits, but there are few concrete tools for how it can be carried out in practice. The article seeks to contribute to…

This aim of this study is to determine the effect of the TPR method on students' vocabulary learning and the factors affecting the effectiveness of this method by combining the findings obtained from both qualitative and quantitative studies.
