This study aims to place EFL learners along an affective continuum via machine learning methods and present a new dataset about affective characteristics of EFL learners. In line with the purposes, written self-reports of 475 students from 5 different faculties in 3 universities in Turkey were collected and manually assigned by the researchers to one of the labels (positive, negative, or neutral). As a result, two combinations of the same dataset (AC-2 and AC-3) including different numbers of classes were used for the assessment of automatic classification approaches. Results revealed that automatic classification confirmed the manual classification to a great extent and machine learning methods could be used to classify EFL students along an affective continuum according to their affective characteristics. Maximum accuracy rate of automatic classification is 90.06% on AC-2 dataset including two classes. Similarly, on AC-3 dataset including three classes, maximum accuracy rate of classification is 71.79%. Last, the top-10 features/words obtained by feature selection methods are highly discriminative in terms of assessing student feelings for EFL learning. It could be stated that there is not an existing study in which feature selection methods and classifiers are used in the literature to automatically classify EFL learners’ feelings.
本研究旨在通过机器学习方法将英语学习者置于情感连续体上,并提出一个关于英语学习者情感特征的新数据集。根据目的,研究人员收集了来自土耳其3所大学5个不同学院的475名学生的书面自我报告,并将其手工分配给其中一个标签(积极、消极或中性)。因此,使用同一数据集(AC-2和AC-3)的两种组合(包括不同数量的类)来评估自动分类方法。结果表明,自动分类在很大程度上证实了人工分类,机器学习方法可以根据学生的情感特征沿情感连续体对他们进行分类。在包含两个类的AC-2数据集上,自动分类的最高准确率为90.06%。同样,在包含三个类别的AC-3数据集上,分类的最高准确率为71.79%。最后,通过特征选择方法获得的前10个特征/单词在评估学生的英语学习感受方面具有很强的辨别性。可以说,目前尚无文献中使用特征选择方法和分类器对英语学习者的情感进行自动分类的研究。

A high percentage of bachelor test-takers who failed the unified entrance examination test in 2021 demonstrated the lack of adequate reading strategies such as contextual guessing for improving exam performance. The study aims at evaluating the use of contextual guessing strategy during extra-curriculum EFL classes as a way to improve students’ unified entrance examination performance. The present study also examines the impact of word formation as a component of contextual guessing strategy and the effectiveness of contextual guessing with online vocabulary application in exam preparation. A quasi-experimental design was employed which involved 24 third-year students from different departments of Higher Educational Institution "Podillia State University" in 2020-2021. The quantitative research method was employed to assess the effectiveness of using contextual guessing to improve students’ test performance using the mean score formula. Additionally, we produced a test statistic based on the ranks (Mann–Whitney U-criterion). The results showed that the experimental group that was taught the strategy of guessing unknown words with the help of word-formation processes, and contextual clues, in particular, and applied the vocabulary platform for fixing and retaining guessed words had higher results than those who were taught unified entrance examination tests with the help of the grammar-translation method. Based on Mann–Whitney U-criterion we have statistically significant evidence to conclude that contextual guessing significantly affects EFL learners’ test performance in experimental and control groups. The guide on word formation was designed during the experiment.
在2021年的统一入学考试中,有很高比例的本科考生没有通过考试,这表明他们缺乏足够的阅读策略,比如上下文猜测,以提高考试成绩。本研究旨在评估在课外英语课堂中使用语境猜测策略对提高学生统考成绩的作用。本研究还考察了构词法作为语境猜测策略的一个组成部分的影响,以及语境猜测在考试准备中的在线词汇应用的有效性。采用准实验设计,对2020-2021年来自高等教育机构“波迪利亚州立大学”不同院系的24名三年级学生进行研究。采用定量研究的方法,采用平均分公式评估情境猜测对提高学生考试成绩的有效性。此外,我们根据排名(Mann-Whitney u标准)产生了一个检验统计量。结果表明,使用构词法和上下文线索进行猜词策略的实验组,特别是使用词汇平台固定和保留猜词的实验组,比使用语法翻译法进行统一入学考试的实验组成绩更好。基于Mann-Whitney u标准,我们有统计上显著的证据表明语境猜测对实验组和对照组的英语学习者的考试成绩有显著影响。在实验过程中设计了构词法指南。

The paper is focused on the intercultural communicative competence as an integral part of vocational training of journalism students. The aim of the paper is: 1) to define the intercultural communicative competence dimensions; 2) to outline the ways of development of intercultural communicative competence of journalism students; 3) to find out the attitudes of journalism students to intercultural communicative competence development; 4) to assess the levels of journalism students’ intercultural communicative competence and develop recommendations for its development. A mixed research design was employed which involved 14 ESP teachers and 26 bachelor students of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv during the autumn trimester of 2021. The study shows that the students are fully aware of the necessity to develop intercultural communicative competence. Based on the survey of the ESP teachers, we outlined the dimensions of journalism students’ intercultural communicative competence development and suggested the ways of building intercultural communicative competence in journalism students. The levels of assessment of intercultural communicative competence of journalism students were outlined and defined. The final results indicate that journalism students whose study was more practice than theory oriented (group 1) showed better learning outcomes than those who were mostly focused on the acquisition of theoretical knowledge (group 2). Methodical guidelines for ESP teachers were developed.

Currently, higher education system is characterized by the growing role of personal ability to adapt to the challenges of COVID-19 and finding opportunities for further development considering the global changes in all spheres of life. It puts pressure on the institutions in general and academic staff in particular. This paper aims at studying the challenges academic staff of the English Language and Methods of Teaching Department of Pavlo Tychyna Uman State Pedagogical University has faced during the COVID-19 pandemic and staff’s preparedness and consequent adaptation amid new conditions that are constantly appearing because of the pandemic. The article presents a case study research to answer the following questions: What is the level of academic staff readiness to teach under conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic from a diachronic perspective? In what ways has academic staff adapted to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic? The study uses predominantly quantitative and occasionally qualitative analysis to gain insights into our researched issues. The research has shown a steady increase in the number of department lecturers who feel ready for the challenges of online and blended teaching caused by the pandemic and comfortable with their professional competence due to sustainable adaptation to the current situation. The research prospects are clearly seen in the further process of adaptation and professional activities paradigm re-evaluation under the constantly changing global and local conditions as well as researching the issue in a broader context of similar or corresponding cases.

The university curriculum plays a role in motivating students to take up research. This 2-year action research explored the curriculum in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) and its influence on student further engagement in research work. The data were collected from University Master's students through two questionnaires given to them before and after studying the course. An explanatory framework for the course characteristics that affected students’ attitudes towards research focused upon the students’ profile (the students’ age, gender, major and language proficiency), career orientation and research orientation. The shift in students’ attitudes reinforced the complexity of factors that influenced their motivation to take up research after graduation. The authors draw a conclusion that future interventions to address issues with the Academic English course to raise the interest of University students should deal with restructuring the course in a way that the student should have more contact hours. The analysis of learning materials designed for the EAP course shows that most of them introduce students to theory- and research-informed perspectives and guide them in putting theory to use in real-world contexts which would be impossible in 30 contact hours as in the analysed case. Moreover, it should be linked to the students’ school practice and their small-scale research in real classroom settings.  
大学课程在激励学生从事研究方面起着作用。这项为期两年的行动研究探讨了学术英语课程及其对学生进一步参与研究工作的影响。数据是通过对大学硕士生在学习课程之前和之后的两份调查问卷来收集的。课程特征影响学生研究态度的解释框架主要集中在学生概况(学生的年龄、性别、专业和语言能力)、职业取向和研究取向。学生态度的转变强化了影响他们毕业后从事研究动机的因素的复杂性。作者得出的结论是,未来的干预措施,以解决学术英语课程的问题,以提高大学生的兴趣应该处理的方式重组课程,学生应该有更多的接触时间。对为EAP课程设计的学习材料的分析表明,其中大多数向学生介绍了理论和研究的观点,并指导他们将理论应用于现实环境中,这在分析的案例中是不可能在30课时内完成的。此外,它应该与学生的学校实践和他们在真实课堂环境中的小规模研究联系起来。

The article is devoted to the problems of foreign language education in linguistic universities, namely to promoting the students’ linguistic competence, which has been the most urgent in mastering the language as a means of communication. The research prompts the standards to progress the grammatical competence. In the current study, we make a hypothesis that, in contrast to traditional teaching approach, the communicative approach is supposed to be more effective in teaching grammar and helps students to master the language and upgrade their linguistic competence in comprehending and processing spoken and written texts and become professionals after graduating the University. In the experiment two groups of students were involved: one using traditional approach to learning grammar at the classes and the other practising communicative language teaching approach. In total 79 bachelor’s degree students of Kyiv National Linguistic University (Ukraine) took a tentative course in grammar. The current study testifies the effectiveness of the communicative approach to studying grammar structures as a way to develop the linguistic competence of students and to help them to acquire proficiency level for achieving success in real communication.
本文探讨了语言院校外语教育存在的问题,即如何提高学生的语言能力,这是掌握语言作为交际手段最迫切的问题。该研究促进了语法能力标准的提高。在本研究中,我们提出一个假设,与传统的教学方法相比,交际法在语法教学方面更有效,有助于学生掌握语言,提高他们理解和处理口语和书面文本的语言能力,并在大学毕业后成为专业人士。实验分为两组:一组使用传统的语法教学方法,另一组使用交际教学法。基辅国立语言大学(乌克兰)共有79名学士学位学生选修了一门临时性的语法课程。本研究证明了交际法学习语法结构是有效的,它可以培养学生的语言能力,帮助他们达到在实际交际中取得成功的熟练程度。

Based on a prior study by Zubenko and Shwedel (2019), the present study investigated the possible effects of repetition (repeated exposure) on the incidental acquisition and retention of 120 English target words by 51 Ukrainian-speaking ESL learners at a Ukrainian university. The hypothesis was that regular repetition of vocabulary while incidental listening would have a significant and positive effect on students’ vocabulary acquisition and performance. The paper examines the results of the implementation of spaced repetition of L2 vocabulary strategy of the second-year students who were covering the same vocabulary they learned during the experiment in the previous year. 7 audio lessons were created for increasing the long-term retention of target vocabulary in the students’ memory. Participants (N=51) were second-year Ukrainian university students majoring in English as a second language (ESL) at the age of 17-19. They were assigned to three groups, one experimental and two comparison. The optimal result based on the interval of repetitions influences the vocabulary recall and retention. Students who used the spaced L2 vocabulary acquisition strategy (SVAS) outperformed on the End-of-Experiment test 84,1 versus 80,6 for the Comparison group. The results prove that spaced L2 vocabulary acquisition strategy is an efficient part of enriching new vocabulary. The findings indicate that implications of this research are connected with the spaced vocabulary acquisition strategy as an effective tool for learning new lexical units by ESL learners while incidental listening to the audio dictionary lessons. Thus, the study results open up new possibilities for the teachers and learners to consider implementing audio dictionaries and similar tools as assets for efficient vocabulary learning.
基于Zubenko和Shwedel(2019)之前的研究,本研究调查了重复(重复暴露)对乌克兰一所大学51名讲乌克兰语的ESL学习者偶然习得和保留120个英语目标单词的可能影响。假设有规律的词汇重复和偶然的听力对学生的词汇习得和表现有显著的积极影响。本研究考察了二年级学生在学习前一年实验中所学词汇的基础上,对二年级学生进行二语词汇间隔重复策略的实施效果。为了提高学生对目标词汇的长期记忆,我们制作了7个音频课程。参与者(N=51)为17-19岁的乌克兰大学二年级学生,主修英语作为第二语言(ESL)。他们被分为三组,一组是实验组,两组是对照组。基于重复时间间隔的最优结果影响词汇的回忆和记忆。使用间隔词汇习得策略(SVAS)的学生在实验结束测试中的表现优于对照组(84,1)和对照组(80,6)。结果表明,空间词汇习得策略是二语词汇丰富的有效手段。本研究的结果表明,间隔词汇习得策略作为一种有效的工具,可以帮助ESL学习者在附带收听音频词典课程的同时学习新的词汇单元。因此,研究结果为教师和学习者考虑使用音频词典和类似工具作为有效词汇学习的资产开辟了新的可能性。

Participants (N=51) were second-year Ukrainian university students majoring in English as a second language (ESL) at the age of 17-19. They were assigned to three groups, one experimental and two comparison. The optimal result based on the interval of repetitions influences the vocabulary recall and retention. Students who used the spaced L2 vocabulary acquisition strategy (SVAS) outperformed on the End-of-Experiment test 84,1 versus 80,6 for the Comparison group. The results prove that spaced L2 vocabulary acquisition strategy is an efficient part of enriching new vocabulary. The findings indicate that implications of this research are connected with the spaced vocabulary acquisition strategy as an effective tool for learning new lexical units by ESL learners while incidental listening to the audio dictionary lessons. Thus, the study results open up new possibilities for the teachers and learners to consider implementing audio dictionaries and similar tools as assets for efficient vocabulary learning.","PeriodicalId":43037,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86757544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

WRITTEN AND ORAL CODESWITCHING PREVALENCE: FUNCTIONS AND DIDACTIC IMPLICATIONS IN ESL CONTEXT 书面和口头代码转换的流行:在esl语境中的功能和教学意义
IF 1.1 Pub Date : 2022-08-01 DOI: 10.20535/2410-8286.257173
M. Estremera, Sherill Gilbas
 Despite longitudinal studies conducted along written and oral codeswitching linguistic prevalence considering ESL context, none of the ensuing studies has attempted to propose a theory delineating the preceding occurrence committed by L2 interlocutors which add to the novelty aspect of this paper. The quantitative analysis redounds to the formation of philosophical data on the constructive aspects associated to codeswitching occurrence in ESL classroom despite its adverse impressions in the context of pedagogy. This paper predominantly explores codeswitching from L1 to L2 in a multifaceted milieu as it has hidden purposes and functions along the channels of communication. For instance, codeswitching for equivalence (Mam the villain in the story is “masama”, because uhmmm…. She done bad thing to the main character). After careful scrutiny, the study emphasizes that the highlighted linguistic prevalence should uncover its positive aspects for communicative competence sake. The paramount goal must always be the understanding of the text and glitches along the channels of communication must be deemed secondary. This practice has functions and purposes in the context of the interlocutors of the language itself. They do such for clarity, emphasis, emotion expression, and equivalence for the most part. The role of ESL teachers counts a lot to bring the students to a high level of communicative competence. L1 shall serve as a bridge to reach L2 fluency. 
尽管对书面和口头语码转换的语言流行情况进行了纵向研究,但没有一项后续研究试图提出一种理论来描述二语对话者之前所犯的行为,这增加了本文的新新性。定量分析回归到哲学数据的形成,这些数据与ESL课堂中发生的语码转换有关,尽管它在教育学背景下给人留下了负面印象。本文主要探讨从一语到二语的代码转换在多方面的环境下,因为它在通信渠道中具有隐藏的目的和功能。例如,等价的代码转换(故事中的反派是“masama”,因为唔唔....她对主角做了坏事)。经过仔细审查,本研究强调,突出的语言流行应该揭示其积极的方面,以提高交际能力。最重要的目标必须始终是对文本的理解,而沟通渠道中的小故障必须被视为次要的。这种做法在语言本身的对话者语境中具有功能和目的。在大多数情况下,他们这样做是为了清晰、强调、情感表达和对等。ESL教师在培养学生高水平的交际能力方面发挥着重要作用。第一语言应作为达到第二语言流利程度的桥梁。

 The paper deals with the phenomenon of lean management in higher education analyzed within the context of internationalisation process in Polish higher education as a means of ensuring inclusive global higher education space. Lean management is looked upon as one of the 21st century models of university management transplanted from the sphere of private enterprises and business companies’ management. The empirical analysis has been conducted with the use of statistical data provided by the official website of Jagiellonian University, Krakow, Republic of Poland. The data have been collected in accordance with the following internationalisation process indicators: amount of bilateral Memoranda of Understanding; Inbound Mobility: number of foreign students who have completed the full cycle bachelor's / master's degree; Inbound Mobility: number of foreign students who have completed the full cycle PhD’s degree; Inbound Mobility: participation in Quin Jadwiga Fund granting schemes; Inbound Mobility: participation in Erasmus / Erasmus+ Programme; Outbound Mobility: participation in Erasmus / Erasmus+ Programme; number of outbound mobile students in accordance with bilateral agreements; number of inbound mobile students in accordance with bilateral agreements; number of outbound mobile staff in accordance with bilateral agreements; number of inbound mobile staff in accordance with bilateral agreements. The collected data have shown gradual increase of internationalisation process indicators and allowed concluding that the introduction and support of lean management principles in higher education promotes the intensification of the internationalisation process.
