Kathleen J. Abendroth – Topics in Language Disorders, 2024
To support adolescents with language-based learning disabilities (LLD), speech-language pathologists (SLPs) should adopt a multiliteracies framework that targets critical media literacy skills. Multiliteracies recognize the increasingly digital and collaborative nature of written language that adolescents encounter and promote using online…

The focus is on the writing of managers with…

Barrot, Jessie S. – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2023
Despite the building up of research on the adoption of automated writing evaluation (AWE) systems, the differential effects of automated written corrective feedback (AWCF) on errors with different severity levels and gains across writing tasks remain unclear. Thus, this study fills in the vacuum by examining how AWCF through Grammarly affects…

von Gillern, Sam; Stufft, Carolyn – Literacy, 2023
This study examines how 31 middle-school children conducted multimodal analyses of video games. Over four consecutive days, students played video games for 30 minutes and then wrote written reflections about the multimodal symbols within the game and how these symbols influenced their interpretation and decision-making processes during gameplay.…

Escudero, Paola; Smit, Eline A.; Angwin, Anthony J. – Language Learning, 2023
Research has shown that novel words can be learned through the mechanism of statistical or cross-situational word learning (CSWL). So far, CSWL studies using adult populations have focused on the presentation of spoken words. However, words can also be learned through their written form. This study compared auditory and orthographic presentations…

Grapin, Scott E. – Language Assessment Quarterly, 2023
In this article, I argue for expanding what "counts" as evidence of content learning in the assessment of English learners (ELs) and their peers in the content areas. ELs bring expansive meaning-making resources to content classrooms that are valuable assets for meeting the ambitious learning goals of the latest K-12 education reform.…

Shany, Michal; Asadi, Ibrahim; Share, David L. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2023
Purpose: We previously reported evidence of true double dissociation between reading accuracy and reading rate in a large unselected sample of Hebrew-speaking fourth graders and a large clinical sample of adult Hebrew-speakers with dyslexia. The present study aimed to replicate and extend these findings to Arabic, which is structurally similar to…

Liu, Kailin; Storch, Neomy – Australian Review of Applied Linguistics, 2023
Studies on feedback given to second language (L2) learners have focused primarily on learners' response to feedback on language. This study explores how L2 learners in one university EAP class respond to teacher written feedback on all aspects of writing and the factors that may affect their response. Using data from student initial and revised…

Pereira, Brittany A. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Written expression is a complex and critical skill that many students in the U.S. struggle to master (National Center for Education Statistics, 2012). Meanwhile, the COVID pandemic has expedited the need to find feasible interventions that support students writing in a virtual landscape (The National Association of School Psychologists, 2020).…

Scott, Cheryl M. – Topics in Language Disorders, 2020
Competent writing eludes many school children and adolescents, especially those with developmental language and reading disorders. Language sample analysis (LSA) of writing is a powerful but underused assessment tool that can also inform instruction. Similar to LSA of oral language, writing has been analyzed at word, sentence, and text levels…

Stoeckel, Tim; McLean, Stuart; Nation, Paul – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
Two commonly used test types to assess vocabulary knowledge for the purpose of reading are size and levels tests. This article first reviews several frequently stated purposes of such tests (e.g., materials selection, tracking vocabulary growth) and provides a reasoned argument for the precision needed to serve such purposes. Then three sources of…

Hastings, Kathryn; Trexler, Megan – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2021
In this essay, we reinterpret critical literacy through our engagement with structured word inquiry (SWI). By reflecting upon our experiences within a literacy practicum for educators earning their reading specialist certification, we demonstrate how SWI can provide students and educators with opportunities to transcend the limitations of a scope…

Kizilcik, Hasan Sahin – Physics Teacher, 2021
Students may have some confusion understanding certain physical concepts and principles because of their abstract nature. Using analogies is one of the useful methods to help them more easily grasp abstract concepts to promote conceptual understanding. Bilaloglu classified analogies in four groups: (a) simple analogies, (b) storified analogies,…

Williams, Elise – History Teacher, 2021
In 1864, the Russian empire placed a ban on all forms of the written Lithuanian language in order to subdue the people of Lithuania and to shape the country's culture into the Russian norm. The ban made a variety of Lithuanian books, as well as many other forms of Lithuanian communication, illegal. Over the next 40 years, Lithuanians resisted this…

Mariëtte van Loon; Claudia M. Roebers – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
This study aims to understand individual differences between children in metacognitive monitoring and control processes and the developmental trajectories of metacognition over one year. Three indicators of procedural metacognition were used: monitoring accuracy (discrimination of confidence judgments between correct and incorrect test responses),…
