The purpose of this registered report study was to determine the effects of explicit text structure instruction on the expository text comprehension of students with language and learning disabilities (LLD) using a multiple baseline design across conditions (e.g., compare-contrast and cause-effect) and participants. Participants included four…

Peer feedback has been recognized as a crucial strategy in enhancing L2 writing skills and performance. It addresses common challenges faced by students, such as grammar and spelling errors, limited expression ability, and cultural differences. Peer feed-back and feed-forward are two major approaches to providing peer feedback. However, existing…

Background/purpose: The use of AI in EFL writing instruction has been identified as a potential way of improving learning outcomes. Nevertheless, there are concerns about overreliance, cultural limitations, and the inability of AI to measure creativity and emotional tone. This paper aims to investigate the opportunities and challenges of applying…

Physics, even though it is guided by simple principles, tends for many topics to be obscured in the mathematics redundancy. MATLAB®, as interactive software for computer algebra, has already had an important impact on the way physics is taught by educators. It has also had a substantial impact on the way research is performed by students to…

The research examines the concept of consciousness from a materialistic and idealistic position and clarifies the essence of the concept of moral consciousness. The authors give a brief overview of the problem of forming moral consciousness of schoolchildren. The authors describe the influence of the humanities and natural sciences on the…

Oral practice is challenging for foreign language education, and Corrective Feedback (CF) is often used to point out learners' pronunciation errors and to help them improve their oral skills in foreign language courses. CF is generally considered as a necessary condition for foreign language acquisition, and "reflection" and…

In the context of globally integrated education, the last decade has seen a significant rise in bilingual primary schools across China. This development has led to the recruitment of an increasingly diverse group of international teachers to deliver English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education. These EFL teachers introduce a wide array of…

This longitudinal mixed-method study investigated effects of the reading-while-listening mode on the incidental learning of two dimensions of vocabulary knowledge, namely receptive knowledge and productive knowledge, in a Chinese EFL classroom context. Additionally, EFL learners' attitudes toward the reading-while-listening mode of incidental…

There is compelling empirical evidence suggesting that more authentic learning tasks improve second language learners' motivation and learning (Long, 1996; Van Lier, 2014). However, most research on this topic has focused on Germanic and Romance L2 languages, primarily in the context of speaking skills. Little is known about the effect of task…

This study investigated the development of syntactic complexity in second language (L2) learner essays, focusing on how key syntactic features evolve as L2 learners practice writing through the use of an automated written corrective feedback (AWCF) tool. Using a corpus of essays written across three writing sessions, five indices of syntactic…

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in collaborative learning environments has transformed educational practices, yet little is known about preservice mathematics teachers' perceptions and engagement with such technology. This study aims to address this gap by exploring how pre-service teachers perceive and engage with AI-assisted…

Profound understanding of implicature is a vital precondition for successful communication, which allows recipients to appreciate the tone, relevance, and acceptability of the original idea in both intralingual and interlingual setting. This assumption accentuates the necessity to address the concept of implicature in sustainable interdisciplinary…

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Differentiated Instruction (DI) using Writing to Learn (WtL) in a bilingual context to improve students' communication and connection abilities in mathematics. This study used mixed methods as a quasi-experimental design with a nonrandomized control group. The experimental class applied DI using…

The goal of this meta-analysis was to calculate the effect sizes of computer-assisted word reading interventions (in terms of reading skill level training, supplemental alphabet knowledge, fluency, and remedial reading) on different reading-related outcomes (i.e., letter knowledge, phonemic awareness, word reading and pseudoword decoding, sentence…

While flipped learning is a commonly applied pedagogical intervention, a careful review of empirical studies provides little evidence of its effectiveness in facilitating students' grammar learning at the secondary school level in English as a foreign language (EFL) contexts. Unlike traditional grammar teaching methods that emphasize rule…
