The quality improvement of human resources in the society 5.0 era in the 21st century is closely related to technology, and one of the ways this can be achieved is by using YouTube. Therefore, this research determined the differences in student cognitive learning outcomes and critical thinking before and after applying the YouTube-assisted…

Purpose: Most educational institutions worldwide have suddenly switched to online instruction due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, and English language teaching took its part in this transition. The immediate transition from face-to-face to fully online instruction affects its effective implementation, especially in developing countries…

The current study aimed at enhancing online reading speed and motivation of EFL learners through subtitled series as RSVP. For this purpose, 90 learners were divided into three groups: two experimental groups and one control group. The study follows a pre-post experimental mixed-method design. The results were statistically analyzed by using the…

The last two decades have seen a significant amount of interest in bilingual language learning and processing. A number of computational models have also been developed to account for bilingualism, with varying degrees of success. In this article, we first briefly introduce the significance of computational approaches to bilingual language…

The paper discusses the findings regarding future possible selves based on research with Russian-speaking migrant pupils in English state-funded primary schools at Key Stage 2 (7-11 years old). Its aim is to explain the nature and characteristics of ideal selves of primary-level migrant children. The methodology comprises a qualitative…

Culturally Relevant Pedagogy (CRP) as a teaching framework uses the strengths of ethnically diverse students' funds of knowledge to enhance their academic learning. This framework can potentially increase students' success, but little is known about its use in a virtual setting. Due to the COVID-19 school closure, the first seven months of the…

The present study draws on Flow Theory to examine the relationship between task repetition and the quality of learners' subjective experience during task execution. Flow is defined as a positive experiential state characterized by intense focus and involvement in meaningful and challenging, but doable tasks, which has been associated with enhanced…

Learning analytics (LA) has been increasingly using in teaching and learning. However, in the field of applied linguistics, the use of LA has only begun to touch the surface. There is a need for understanding how LA and learning design (LD) influence each other and provide useful information to language teachers in the context of specific courses…

In this article, I argue that first language (L1), second language (L2) and third language (L3) acquisition are fundamentally the same process, based on learning by parsing. Both child and adult learners are sensitive to fine linguistic distinctions, and language development takes place in small steps. While the bulk of the article focuses on…

This mixed-methods study involved implementation of virtual field trip (VFT) projects in an online undergraduate foreign language (FL) course, with a close focus on four student participants' use of VFTs over four weeks. Participants explored an Italian city using desktop virtual reality; narrated their experiences, and created an annotated…

The integration of artificial intelligence in language learning is transforming education by making language acquisition more personalized, efficient, and accessible. AI-powered tools, such as intelligent tutoring systems and adaptive learning platforms, enable learners to receive real-time feedback, customized lessons, and immersive experiences…

This article describes how a group of language undergraduates in a local university in the periphery in the Global South conceptualised and enacted the notion of the 'ecological university'. Theoretically grounded in critical and post-humanist perspectives on education, and language education in particular, and notions of the ecological and the…

This study aimed to develop characteristics of the Genre-Based approach (GBA) via the Miro platform and to discover results on using this approach and the Gathering, Processing, Applying, and Self-Regulating (GPAS) process. The study employed experimental research using a true group pretest-posttest control group design with Grade 8 students…

The concomitant relationship among language, identity and power has been intimately connected to the ELT world. The bi/multilingual learner identity negotiation has been viewed as a site of struggle from a postmodernist perspective. To this end, learners' existing capital in relation to their involvement in new capital is a significant issue in…

This bibliometric study reveals the dominant research topics, methodologies, contexts, and publication outlets utilized by researchers in the field of English Language Teaching (ELT) in Thailand from 2010 to 2024. Bibliometric analysis was conducted using Microsoft Excel 2019 and VOSviewer 1.6.19 as research tools. The dataset was retrieved from…
