This study explores the experiences and perceptions of 59 first-year university students on flipped learning systems over the course of one semester. The students carried out three separate sessions of flipped methodology classes, utilising a variety of online tools for teaching and communicating with each other. Results indicated that while the students had very little prior knowledge and experience in a flipped classroom, they were generally positive in their initial perception of the learning strategy. Furthermore, the students fully embraced the entire process albeit with some apprehension regarding their peer's motivation and efficiency in conducting the flipped sessions. A pre-sessional survey was conducted at the start of the semester as well as post-sessional surveys after each flipped session to gauge any particular changes in the students' perceptions throughout the study. The overall findings showed positive reception from the students regarding flipped classrooms with notable mentions of improved confidence and the development of active learning approaches.
本研究探讨了59名大学一年级学生在一个学期的课程中对翻转学习系统的体验和看法。学生们进行了三节独立的翻转方法论课程,利用各种在线工具进行教学和相互交流。结果表明,虽然学生对翻转课堂的先验知识和经验很少,但他们对学习策略的初始感知总体上是积极的。此外,学生们完全接受了整个过程,尽管他们对同伴进行翻转教学的动机和效率有些担忧。在学期开始时进行了一项课前调查,并在每次翻转课程后进行了课后调查,以评估学生在整个学习过程中感知的任何特定变化。总体调查结果显示,学生们对翻转课堂的接受程度是积极的,他们明显提到了自信的提高和主动学习方法的发展。

Collaborative learning is an educational approach that allows learners to learn effectively in groups and construct new knowledge together. Online collaborative learning takes place on an online platform. This educational approach is evaluated as an effective solution to the learner's isolation in online courses. This action research aims to investigate the impact of online collaborative learning by designing comic books on diminishing the learner's isolation and exploring the obstacles to making online comic books. One hundred fifty freshmen at Van Lang University, Vietnam took part in a 10-week project. The action research method was used in combination with three data collection instruments: notes, questionnaires, and focused group interviews. The findings indicate that online collaborative learning with comics can remove the isolation feelings and bring a sense of community to online learners. The research also pointed out difficulties that may arise during designing comics. The action plan has pedagogical values and should be duplicated for the sake of online learning and teaching.
协作学习是一种让学习者在小组中有效学习并共同构建新知识的教育方法。在线协作学习在一个在线平台上进行。这种教育方法被评价为解决在线课程中学习者孤立的有效方法。本行动研究旨在通过设计漫画书来调查在线协作学习对减少学习者孤立感的影响,并探索制作在线漫画书的障碍。越南万朗大学的150名新生参加了一个为期10周的项目。行动研究方法结合了三种数据收集工具:笔记、问卷调查和焦点小组访谈。研究结果表明,网络漫画协同学习可以消除学习者的孤独感,给学习者带来一种社区意识。该研究还指出了漫画设计过程中可能出现的困难。该行动计划具有教学价值,应该为在线学习和教学而复制。

Many studies have been conducted on the development of young children; however, not many have explored the cognitive processes of prereaders. The eye-tracker has been used with success to investigate the cognitive processes of young children abroad, but such studies are lacking in Malaysia. This study used an experimental procedure created with eye-tracking technology on 22 prereaders (aged 5 to 6) in a Malaysian kindergarten. The prereaders were exposed to four conditions: (1) listening to narration and viewing a congruent picture with text, (2) listening to narration and viewing an incongruent picture with text, (3) viewing a picture with text without narration, and (4) listening to narration and viewing a text. The main objective of this project is to test which content of pictures helps the students understand the narration and the text, and how they use visual attention to build a better understanding. The findings revealed that children strongly preferred pictures to texts, but when the narration was not present, they spent more time looking at the text.
人们对幼儿的发展进行了许多研究;然而,对预读者的认知过程进行探索的并不多。这种眼动仪在国外被成功地用于调查幼儿的认知过程,但在马来西亚却缺乏这样的研究。本研究采用眼动追踪技术对马来西亚一所幼儿园的22名5至6岁的学龄前儿童进行了实验。预先阅读者被暴露在四种条件下:(1)听叙述并观看与文本一致的图片,(2)听叙述并观看与文本不一致的图片,(3)观看不带叙述的图片,(4)听叙述并观看文本。这个项目的主要目的是测试图片的哪些内容有助于学生理解叙述和文本,以及他们如何使用视觉注意力来建立更好的理解。研究结果显示,孩子们更喜欢图片而不是文字,但当没有旁白时,他们会花更多的时间看文字。

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。

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.

Foreign Language Communication in Virtual Exchanges 虚拟交流中的外语交际
IF 1.4 Q1 Social Sciences 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。

Exploring Student Engagement With Computer-Mediated Peer Feedback on L2 Writing 探索学生参与计算机媒介同伴反馈的第二语言写作
IF 1.4 Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2022-04-01 DOI: 10.4018/ijcallt.305828
Maggie Ma
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。

Pedagogical implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":43610,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computer-Assisted Language Learning and Teaching","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78703719","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}

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。
