This study aims to find the difference in effectiveness between written and video-based materials for a flipped classroom…

This study explores the integration of generative AI, specifically ChatGPT, in self-directed language learning (SDLL) as perceived by YouTube content creators. Through thematic analysis of in-depth interviews with 14 prominent online language educators with related YouTube videos on ChatGPT, the present study investigates: (1) their perceptions of…

Speaking is acknowledged as one of the most difficult skills for English learners to develop. For this reason, many strategies have been used to develop this skill and one of which is the use of "YouTube" videos.

While existing research into L2 classroom discourse has highlighted how knowledge and knowledge positions are negotiated, no attention seems to have been paid to what might be called "conceptual epistemic domains." Drawing on 22 hours of video-recorded data from Iranian EFL classrooms, our conversation analytic study illustrates how…

While the use of video recording as a method of data collection has helped researchers to resolve the challenge of capturing classroom interactions between teachers and students, it can be challenging for the researchers and teachers to make sense of the rich data collected. This paper describes an approach of analysing and visualising a language…

Although studying the actual use of L2 materials has gained momentum over the past few years, little is known about its synergy with teachers' beliefs. This study addressed this gap by exploring teachers' stated and enacted beliefs about (effective) materials use in L2 classroom discourse. To this effect, naturally-occurring interactions within 10…

Writing conferences are one-on-one feedback sessions that enable teachers and students to engage in constructive interactions to improve students' writing. While interacting individually, a teacher can use various feedback strategies to improve the quality of a student's writing. This study examined how a secondary English teacher elicited…

Background/purpose: This study addresses a critical lacuna in language teacher education by implementing and evaluating a video-enhanced coaching program designed to strengthen interactive skills and self-efficacy among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) pre-service teachers.

Collaboration is essential for all English for Specific Purposes practitioners, whether they are a part of a Faculty or a Language Centre. Conducting needs analyses to determine students' specific English requirements necessitates interaction with subject specialists within their institution. The present report presents an innovative pedagogical…

Pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has been extensively studied in science teacher education. However, scant research attention within the domain of Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) has been paid to teachers' PCK. With an interpretive qualitative design, the present study aimed to investigate whether pre-service English as a Foreign…
