In contexts of first language (L1) acquisition, prediction and adaptation are often viewed as fundamental to the learning process (Rabagliati et al., 2016). One mechanism that has been proposed to specifically account for such adaptive behavior is error-based implicit learning (e.g., Chang et al., 2006). According to this account, speakers…

The purpose of this hermeneutic phenomenological study was to understand the perceptions and emotions of teachers during the global pandemic, specifically looking at the "how" and the "what" teachers experienced during the pandemic, focusing on the emotions deriving from the participants' lived experiences with technology. The…

This study investigates the role of self-efficacy in an asynchronous online English course enriched with interactive features. Self-efficacy is a strong predictor of academic achievement in conventional classrooms. However, when learning happens in an online environment, the students' learning achievement is also affected by their psychological…

Languages differ in the importance of acoustic dimensions for speech categorization. This poses a potential challenge for second language (L2) learners, and the extent to which adult L2 learners can acquire new perceptual strategies for speech categorization remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of extensive English L2 immersion on…

This research applied a web-based dynamic assessment system, GPAM-WATA system, to help low English achievers to perform self-directed learning of junior high school English grammar. A quasi-experimental design was adopted. A total of 124 seventh graders from four classes participated in this research. Participants were randomly divided into the…

This pilot implementation study examines the experiences of ten teachers who have employed a place-based learning resource called "A Walking Curriculum" for one to three years. "A Walking Curriculum" is an example of Imaginative Ecological Education--a pedagogical approach that centralizes imaginative engagement, emotional…

Past research has identified factors that help maintain the cognitive demand of tasks, including "drawing conceptual connections." We investigated whether teachers who were engaging in the teaching practice of "building"--and thus focusing the class on collaboratively making sense of their peers' high-leverage mathematical…

Student multimodal writing has gained attention in the teaching and learning of mathematics with the anticipation that these assignments will benefit student engagement and learning in a variety of ways. This study investigates students' perceptions of learning in a post-secondary calculus course, which contained four multimodal writing…

Educators, researchers, and policy makers recognize that student participation in classroom mathematics conversations, especially explaining one's own thinking and engaging with others' ideas, can promote students' mathematics learning. However, precisely "how" participating in these ways supports learning has not often been examined in…

Communication skills and dialogue are key competencies of the 21st century and a condition for successful implementation and personal development in general. This requires their formation to be the subject of purposeful educational activity. At the same time, their implementation in the learning process is a complex and difficult task, requiring a…
