The findings report key factors and features of multilingual education in the region where Basque (minority language), Spanish (majority language), English…

This article reports the results of a qualitative, community-based research study that aimed to analyse the incidence of community-based pedagogies on the development of local cultural awareness at a rural public school in Colombia.

In Thailand's schools, after almost 20 years of using the Basic Education Core Curriculum 2008, alarm bells are finally ringing. We know well that native speakerism ideologies are embedded in the curriculum, but we know little about their impact on TESOL practices. Native speakerism stems from colonial power structures, privileging White Western…

The benefits that different technologies provide to the educational processes have been experienced by educators for years. The advantages that teachers gain from computers, the internet, different software and technologies that change and develop every passing day have caused students to develop different skills and have also made it a necessity…

Three kinds of knowledge that effective teachers should master have been proposed: content knowledge (CK), pedagogical knowledge (PK), and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK). Most PCK studies have been conducted in the mathematics or science domain. In recent years, a growing number of studies related to foreign language teachers' PCK have…

Writing research papers is a challenging task for many students, particularly when it comes to organizing ideas, finding appropriate references, and adhering to academic styles. This responsibility places significant demands on teachers to guide students through the complexities of academic writing. This paper explores the integration of…

Early childhood is a critical time for oral language development. Reading aloud is one of the most common instructional activities aimed at fostering oral language skills. It plays a vital role in supporting multilingual or emergent bilingual learners' oral language learning development. Through this article, the authors wish to inform teachers of…

This brief examines how current mathematics instruction often fails to meet the needs of multilingual students, particularly English Learners. With over 2.2 million English Learners in grades 6-12 and persistent achievement gaps in mathematics, this brief calls for a shift: treating language development not as a prerequisite for learning math, but…

This study explores the challenges and effectiveness of game-based learning (GBL) through Minecraft: Education Edition (M:EE) in teaching coding and fostering creative thinking among fourth-grade students in Thailand. Conducted over eight weeks in 2023 at a laboratory school in Bangkok, the study involved 284 students. Data was gathered using…

While the benefits of form-focused instruction (FFI) for grammar and general vocabulary are well-documented, research on its impact on L2 academic vocabulary acquisition remains limited. This study examines the effects of focus-on-form (FonF) and focus-on-forms (FonFs) activities on learning both general and academic vocabulary in Korean EFL…

Sheltered English Immersion (SEI) is a common instructional approach to serve Emergent Bilingual (EB) students through Content-Based Instruction. However, little is known about how novice teachers implement SEI in their content areas once they enter the profession. This dearth of research is particularly pronounced in math, a content area where…

This book argues that teachers of multiple languages (TMLs) form a distinct group of language teachers and that the study of this largely overlooked demographic group can reveal new insights into how we perceive and research language teachers. The book highlights the narratives of three TMLs from diverse global contexts, examining their journeys…

Previous research identified that studying texts in a second language (L2) as opposed to the first (L1) results in substantially weaker recall. We hypothesized that use of advance organizers (AOs) might attenuate this L2 recall cost by supporting L2 users in the construction of more solid memory representations. One hundred Dutch-English…

Despite substantial advances in the field of instructed second language acquisition (SLA) with regard to our understanding of second language (L2) pronunciation development and pedagogy, many language instructors continue to report a lack of confidence in incorporating pronunciation instruction (PI) into their classes. This survey study examined…

The paper presents the results of a quasi-experimental study which was conducted with a view to determining the effect of an intervention in the form of the application of teacher-designed Internet-based resources (i.e., websites, podcasts, movie clips) that students could use autonomously on the development of pronunciation of the English regular…
