Higher education requires a different approach to teaching and learning since modern-day students no longer have the same learning needs as they had in the past. Project-based learning (PBL) is an active and dynamic approach to language teaching that makes it possible for the language students to gain transferable and applicable knowledge, skills and insights, and it also contributes to support and enhance virtual exchanges (VE), especially when it comes to developing intercultural communicative competence and using digital technologies. This paper is aimed at showing the results of using PBL in VE contexts to develop intercultural communicative competence of Costa Rican and Japanese EFL students by implementing some ideas from the Council of Europe’s Reference Framework of Competences for Democratic Culture (FRCDC). The results suggest that implementing PBL in VE contexts to develop intercultural communicative competence of Costa Rican and Japanese EFL students had an impact on the participants’ skills, values, attitudes, and knowledge and critical understanding.
高等教育需要一种不同的教学方法,因为现代学生不再像过去那样有同样的学习需求。项目式学习(PBL)是一种积极、动态的语言教学方法,它使语言学生获得可转移和适用的知识、技能和见解成为可能,它也有助于支持和加强虚拟交流(VE),特别是在发展跨文化交际能力和使用数字技术方面。本文旨在通过实施欧洲委员会民主文化能力参考框架(FRCDC)中的一些想法,展示在VE环境中使用PBL来培养哥斯达黎加和日本英语学生的跨文化交际能力的结果。结果表明,在VE情境下实施PBL以培养哥斯达黎加和日本英语学生的跨文化交际能力对参与者的技能、价值观、态度、知识和批判性理解产生了影响。

During the COVID-19 pandemic, most classes in higher education were offered online, and student and staff mobility came to a sudden halt. With its focus on online interaction and collaboration between students from different cultural backgrounds, Virtual Exchange (VE) has presented itself as an excellent opportunity to students and educators to combine the benefits of both digitalization and internationalization. This paper looks at the role of a series of factors in the interdisciplinary VE called 'The new normality,' which took place between BA Social Psychology students at a large public research institution in Eastern Spain and students from different BAs enrolled in Spanish proficiency courses at large public research university in the North of the Netherlands. This project had two main goals: 1) to create an environment for students to share their pandemic experiences across cultures and disciplines; 2) to determine to what extent this exchange of ideas contributed to the development of students’ intercultural awareness and competence and communicative competence.
在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间,高等教育的大多数课程都是在线提供的,学生和员工的流动突然停止。Virtual Exchange (VE)专注于不同文化背景的学生之间的在线互动和协作,为学生和教育工作者提供了一个结合数字化和国际化优势的绝佳机会。本文着眼于一系列因素在被称为“新常态”的跨学科VE中的作用,该研究发生在西班牙东部一家大型公共研究机构的社会心理学学士学位学生和荷兰北部大型公立研究型大学西班牙语熟练课程的不同学士学位学生之间。该项目有两个主要目标:1)为学生创造一个环境,让他们分享不同文化和学科的流行病经验;2)确定这种思想交流在多大程度上促进了学生的跨文化意识和能力以及交际能力的发展。

Foreign Language Communication in Virtual Exchanges 虚拟交流中的外语交际
IF 1.4 Q3 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH Pub Date : 2022-07-01 DOI: 10.4018/ijcallt.307061
A. C. B. Salomão
Virtual exchange (VE) has grown out of telecollaboration, which originated in the language-teaching field, and has now expanded to all areas of knowledge as a collaborative methodology to enhance learning and fostering soft skills and intercultural competences. VE has recently received growing interest from higher education institutions due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the reduction in physical mobility. This article reports a study on the strategies used by non-language specialist professors for facilitating communication in a foreign language in VE within the Brazilian Virtual Exchange (BRaVE). Data collection and analysis involved qualitative research methodology through analyzing participants’ reflections. Implications for the field of applied linguistics point to the need for a theoretical framework for VE as an interdisciplinary field. This would serve the purpose to train professors to design and implement activities that involve foreign language communication.
虚拟交换(VE)是从远程协作发展而来的,它起源于语言教学领域,现在已经扩展到所有知识领域,作为一种加强学习和培养软技能和跨文化能力的协作方法。由于COVID-19大流行和身体流动性减少,最近高等教育机构对VE的兴趣越来越大。本文报告了一项关于非语言专家教授在巴西虚拟交换(BRaVE)中使用VE促进外语交流的策略的研究。数据收集和分析涉及定性研究方法,通过分析参与者的反思。对应用语言学领域的启示表明,作为一个跨学科领域,需要一个理论框架。这将有助于培训教授设计和实施涉及外语交流的活动。

The aim of this paper is to report on the impact of the BMELTET project ‘Blending MOOCs into English Language Teaching Education with Telecollaboration' in EFL pre-service teacher education in Florida Universitària in València (Spain) with their counterparts from the UK and China. The present study will offer the views of FU students' perceptions on the development of their TEFL specific competences. Data were collected through surveys, a focus group, and personal interviews on how their experience in BMELTET influenced their in-class professional practice. Results suggest that participants appreciated the chance of being part of a Virtual Exchange and considered that they had developed subject specific competences, particularly planning CLIL projects, teaching English for primary education and practicing their language skills. In addition, some of them transferred that knowledge to their eTwinning and Erasmus projects when in-service and highlighted the improvements in their intercultural communicative competence and their ability to teach it.

From a sociocultural perspective, this case study explored two intermediate-level Chinese university EFL students’ multi-dimensional engagement with asynchronous computer-mediated mode of peer feedback. Data sources included student drafts, peer feedback, think-aloud protocols, stimulated recall, and semi-structured interviews. The two students displayed different responses to asynchronous computer-mediated peer feedback with different foci when engaging with it affectively, cognitively, and behaviorally. In particular, their cognitive engagement was characterized by noticing and interpretation, evaluation, and decision-making. The two student writers’ engagement was not just related to the computer-mediated mode of peer feedback, but also to their motives and roles adopted in the activity of engaging with peer feedback, both of which may be influenced by the community (i.e., the classroom instructional context), its rule (i.e., word limit), and the division of labour in the community (i.e., the role adopted by student reviewer). Pedagogical implications are discussed.
本研究从社会文化的角度探讨了两名中国中级大学英语学生在异步计算机媒介同伴反馈模式下的多维参与。数据来源包括学生草稿、同伴反馈、有声思考协议、刺激回忆和半结构化访谈。在情感、认知和行为上,两名学生对异步计算机介导的同伴反馈表现出不同的反应。特别是,他们的认知参与以注意和解释、评估和决策为特征。两位学生作家的参与不仅与计算机媒介的同伴反馈模式有关,还与他们参与同伴反馈活动的动机和角色有关,这两者都可能受到社区(即课堂教学环境)、社区规则(即字数限制)和社区分工(即学生审稿人所采用的角色)的影响。讨论了教学意义。

This quantitative study takes an ecological perspective by examining classroom environmental variables, student motivational factors and their relationship with form-focused and meaning-focused in-class willingness to communicate (WtC) during a fully online English as a Foreign Language programme at a Macau university. Statistically significant multiple regression results identified a moderate and strong overall relationship between these environmental and student motivational factors with in-class meaning-focused (adjusted R2 = 0.47, p < .01) and form-focused (adjusted R2 = 0.53, p < .01) WtC. In addition, regression results indicated task orientation, student group cohesiveness, and desire to learn English as the most important predictor variables for both types of in-class WtC. Weak relationships were evident between WtC with teacher support and motivation intensity. The results suggest that well-developed tasks and strong student group cohesiveness are fundamental considerations for fully online programme design for encouraging WtC.
本定量研究从生态学的角度,考察了澳门某大学英语作为外语课程的课堂环境变量、学生动机因素及其与课堂交流意愿(WtC)的关系。多元回归结果显示,这些环境和学生动机因素与课堂意义关注(调整R2 = 0.47, p < 0.01)和形式关注(调整R2 = 0.53, p < 0.01)的WtC之间存在中度和强的整体关系。此外,回归结果显示,任务导向、学生群体凝聚力和学习英语的愿望是这两种类型的课堂WtC最重要的预测变量。WtC与教师支持、动机强度之间呈弱相关。结果表明,完善的任务和强大的学生群体凝聚力是完全在线课程设计以鼓励WtC的基本考虑因素。

This study explored the effects of technology-mediated task-based language teaching (TMTBLT) in an English as a foreign language (EFL) writing course on students’ descriptive writing performance. A quasi-experiment was conducted. Students in two writing courses were recruited and randomly assigned to an experimental or control group. The participants in the experimental group were engaged in the technology-mediated writing task of transforming their descriptive writing assignment, in which they introduced local tourist attractions, into videos to exchange online with foreign virtual peers. A mixed-methods research approach was adopted to analyze the data collected from participants’ compositions and self-reflections. The results revealed that TMTBLT was effective in developing EFL students’ descriptive writing proficiency. In addition to improving their writing, the students enjoyed participating in the task and used multiple skills. The implications of this study for TMTBLT in EFL writing teaching practices are also discussed.

IF 1.4 Q3 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH Pub Date : 2022-01-01 DOI: 10.4018/ijcallt.291110
K. Li, M. Peterson, Jiahui Wan
Despite the increasing awareness of digital games’ potential for language learning, only a handful of studies focus on their integration into classrooms. Informed by bridging activities, this mixed methods case study recruited six students to engage in instructed gameplay in class and game-related activities after class. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected and analyzed so as to measure participants’ learning outcome, document their engagement, and explore their perceptions of game-based language learning. Results suggest progress in vocabulary recall and transfer. Participants also reported gains in writing and listening, satisfaction with the project, along with a positive attitude towards GBLL. Moreover, it is found that the instructor has a pivotal role to play in pre-game set-up, in-game guidance and post-game feedback. The study yields empirical evidence regarding the benefits of GBLL and may hold pedagogical implications for the integration of games into educational settings. The limitations of this research and future directions are also discussed.
尽管越来越多的人意识到数字游戏对语言学习的潜力,但只有少数研究关注它们与课堂的结合。通过衔接活动,这个混合方法的案例研究招募了六名学生,让他们在课堂上参与指导的游戏玩法,并在课后参与与游戏相关的活动。我们收集和分析了定性和定量数据,以衡量参与者的学习成果,记录他们的参与情况,并探讨他们对基于游戏的语言学习的看法。结果表明学生在词汇记忆和迁移方面取得了进步。参与者还报告了写作和听力方面的进步,对项目的满意度,以及对GBLL的积极态度。此外,我们发现教练在游戏前的设置、游戏中的指导和游戏后的反馈中发挥着关键作用。该研究提供了关于GBLL益处的经验证据,并可能为将游戏整合到教育环境中提供教学启示。讨论了本研究的局限性和未来的发展方向。

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have come to stay supported by the development of educational technologies, and within them Language MOOCs (LMOOCs) are a phenomenon that has risen expectations but also shown their limitations. This study aims at comparing students’ preferences from two universities (UCO, Spain, and ULS, Poland) regarding the learning design preferences of LMOOCs and analyze whether there are differences based on sociocultural context, gender and educational stage. The respondents (n = 260) stated to be in favor of a balance between the constructivist and instructionist educational practices in online language courses. The findings reveal significant differences regarding LMOOCs learning and feedback design in terms of gender and sociocultural context, while no significant differences were found between undergraduate and postgraduate students. These results may be used to plan innovative and effective learning situations that suit learners’ needs and preferences, which should lead to higher quality of learning, and higher learner engagement and satisfaction.
大规模在线开放课程(MOOCs)一直受到教育技术发展的支持,其中语言mooc (LMOOCs)是一种现象,人们对它的期望越来越高,但也显示出其局限性。本研究旨在比较两所大学(西班牙UCO和波兰ULS)的学生对LMOOCs学习设计的偏好,并分析是否存在社会文化背景、性别和教育阶段的差异。受访者(n = 260)表示赞成在线语言课程中建构主义和指导主义教育实践之间的平衡。研究发现,在LMOOCs学习和反馈设计方面,不同性别和社会文化背景的学生存在显著差异,而本科生和研究生之间没有显著差异。这些结果可用于规划创新和有效的学习情境,以满足学习者的需求和偏好,从而提高学习质量,提高学习者的参与度和满意度。

The findings reveal significant differences regarding LMOOCs learning and feedback design in terms of gender and sociocultural context, while no significant differences were found between undergraduate and postgraduate students. These results may be used to plan innovative and effective learning situations that suit learners’ needs and preferences, which should lead to higher quality of learning, and higher learner engagement and satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":43610,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computer-Assisted Language Learning and Teaching","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81668760","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}
