This study investigates the extent to which paper-based data-driven learning (DDL) activities can improve Thai EFL students' grammar learning of conditional sentences (the second condition), as well as the participants' attitudes toward learning through the DDL approach. This was a two-week research using a one-group pre-test and post-test design.…

The development of new forms of technology has resulted in new methodologies and approaches in pedagogical practices, particularly within the field of foreign language education. This is especially useful in foreign language teaching because it allows students geographically distant to interact remotely. Moreover, the integration of task-based and…

Traditional approaches to language assessment have been criticized for their inadequacy in taking account of language learners' potential for development. To obviate this pitfall in traditional assessment, language teachers and researchers have been paying increasing attention to dynamic assessment (DA), which is rooted in Vygotsky's (1978)…

The study was in quasi-experimental pattern model with pretest and posttest control group. It was conducted with seventy 7th grade students, 36 of whom were assigned as the experimental…

This study was conducted to explore the effects of an augmented-reality (AR) creative project on English L2 learners' perceptions of creativity, as well as to investigate how to stimulate students' learning motivation. The AR project was developed and integrated into the course syllabus of a university English class, and 39 Taiwanese freshmen…

This research investigated the consequence of textual enhancement and input processing on developing EFL university learners' linguistic development. It aimed to examine the extent to which these two techniques are useful for learning and teaching the passive voice. A total of 60 in the non-credit remedial foundation course (090) students were…

There has been an ongoing debate on the effectiveness of spaced and massed distribution instruction in second/foreign language learning. A number of studies in the literature have investigated the impacts of spacing effect on English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners' vocabulary acquisition. This study aims to expand the body of existing…

This article reports a quasi-experimental study which compared the effectiveness for multiword item learning of three listening-based activities: dictation, dictogloss, and answering text comprehension questions. In a dictation, students write down segments of text immediately after listening to them, whereas in dictogloss students try to…

Previous research studies were successful in employing Task-based instruction (TBI) to enhance students' either speaking or writing skills or grammar knowledge. However, few research studies have investigated whether the TBI impacts students' grammatical performance in both speaking and writing skills. The quasi-experimental research investigated…

The goal of this study was to investigate the impact of using metacognitive awareness instruction (MAI) on EFL learners' writing skill. To follow this goal, research questions were designed and proposed. The questions sought to explore the impact of using metacognitive awareness instruction on the writing performance of the learners. To achieve…

This study explores the impact of an innovative approach that combines artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot support with collaborative note-taking (CNT) in the comprehension of semantic terms among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. Given the significance of semantics in English language learning, traditional didactic methods often…

Spiritual intelligence involves a search to find and create meaning based on a deep understanding of existential tenets and the ability to reach higher meanings and values.

Higgins's (2000) regulatory fit theory proposes that a fit between one's regulatory state and strategic means for reaching a goal increases motivational strength and engagement. This study investigates how regulatory fit affects the L2 acquisition of lexical stress in an authentic learning context. Ninety EFL students were assigned to either gain…

This study used computerized dynamic assessment (CDA) as a teaching and assessment method to promote Chinese EFL learners' reading comprehension, with a quasi-experimental design in which the control and experimental groups were each given three tests but in different formats. Each test consisted of multiple choice questions (MCQs) selected from…

According to the researchers, the aim of this study is to determine the impact of the flipped learning approach on fifth-year students' understanding of reading content during their last year of preparatory education. To confirm the results of the study, the null hypothesis was developed, which claims that the experimental group's mean scores are…
