Abstract

Background. The effectiveness of oral corrective feedback (OCF) in language learning is influenced by learners’ comprehension and response to various OCF techniques. Therefore, it is essential for teachers to consider learners’ preferences for OCF strategies. Purpose. This quantitative study aimed to investigate the preferences of Thai as a foreign language (TFL) learner for ten commonly discussed types of OCF. Specifically, it examined whether these preferences are influenced by four learner variables: proficiency level, first language (L1), foreign language classroom anxiety (FLCA), and foreign language enjoyment (FLE). Method. The study involved 288 university students from Chinese, Japanese, and Korean TFL settings, and the data from questionnaires were analysed using appropriate statistical methods. Results. The findings indicate that, regardless of proficiency level, L1, FLCA, or FLE level, learners prefer more explicit OCF techniques, such as metalinguistics feedback and explicit correction. However, Korean undergraduates scored lower in the majority of OCF strategies (i.e., ignoring, elicitation, recast, explanation, and public feedback) compared to the other participants. Conclusion. This study has significant implications for instructional practices in TFL settings and for L2 lecturers in the classroom. By understanding learners’ preferences for OCF, educators can tailor their instructional approaches to meet the specific needs of their students.

Abstract

Background. The integration of digital media in higher education has redefined how students engage with learning materials and construct reflective understanding. Podcasts, as a form of digital narrative, provide flexible, accessible, and multimodal learning experiences that foster critical thinking and personal connection with content. Purpose. This study aims to explore how educational podcasts enhance student engagement, promote reflective learning, and support independent knowledge construction in higher education.   Method. Using a qualitative mixed-method design, data were collected from 120 university students through surveys, focus group discussions, and reflective journals. Thematic and descriptive statistical analyses revealed that podcasts significantly increased learners’ motivation, concentration, and comprehension of complex concepts. Students reported that the narrative and conversational tone of podcasts stimulated reflective thinking and emotional engagement, making learning more meaningful and personalized. Results. The results also indicated that integrating podcasts into coursework encouraged continuous learning beyond the classroom and improved retention through self-paced listening.   Conclusion. The study concludes that podcasts function not only as instructional media but also as digital narratives that humanize learning by merging information delivery with reflection and storytelling.

Abstract

Background. The juvenile criminal justice system has evolved to incorporate restorative justice (RJ) practices, which emphasize repairing harm and rehabilitating offenders through dialogue and reconciliation. The implementation of RJ in juvenile justice systems aims to provide an alternative to punitive measures and encourage offenders to take responsibility for their actions while addressing the needs of victims and communities. Despite its promise, the effectiveness of RJ in reducing recidivism and promoting positive outcomes for juvenile offenders remains underexplored. Objective. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of restorative justice practices in the juvenile criminal justice system, focusing on recidivism rates, victim satisfaction, and the rehabilitation of juvenile offenders. The research seeks to assess whether RJ methods contribute to better long-term outcomes compared to traditional punitive approaches. Method. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative analysis of recidivism rates and qualitative interviews with juvenile offenders, victims, and justice system professionals involved in RJ programs. Results. The findings show that restorative justice significantly reduces recidivism rates and improves victim satisfaction. Juvenile offenders reported feeling more accountable for their actions, and communities experienced a greater sense of justice and restoration. Conclusion. Restorative justice practices prove to be effective in the juvenile criminal justice system, offering promising alternatives to traditional punitive methods. Policymakers should consider expanding RJ programs to further enhance rehabilitation and community healing.

Abstract

Background. Social media platforms, particularly TikTok and Instagram, have emerged as powerful tools for informal language and cultural learning in recent years. These platforms facilitate real-time, interactive content sharing, creating a dynamic environment for users to engage with various languages and cultures. Purpose. This research aims to investigate the impact of TikTok and Instagram on language acquisition and cultural understanding among users, particularly focusing on their educational potential.   Method. The study employs a qualitative research approach, using content analysis of popular educational videos on both platforms. In-depth interviews with users from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds were also conducted to explore personal experiences and learning outcomes. Results. The findings suggest that TikTok and Instagram significantly contribute to informal language learning, offering learners access to authentic content, native speakers, and cultural expressions. Additionally, the study highlights the role of visual and interactive elements in enhancing comprehension and retention. Conclusion. In conclusion, social media platforms, while not substitutes for formal education, serve as valuable supplemental tools for language and cultural learning.

Abstract

Learning disabilities (LD) affect a significant portion of the student population worldwide, presenting challenges to academic achievement and personal development. While educational interventions have been developed to address these challenges, their efficacy varies across different contexts and student populations. Understanding which interventions are most effective and the challenges they present is essential for improving educational outcomes for students with learning disabilities. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of various educational interventions for learning disabilities and to identify the challenges faced in implementing these strategies in diverse educational settings. The research seeks to offer insights into the best practices for supporting students with learning disabilities. A systematic review of quantitative and qualitative studies was conducted, focusing on interventions aimed at improving reading, writing, and mathematics skills in students with learning disabilities. Data from 50 peer-reviewed articles were analyzed to assess the effectiveness of these interventions in different educational environments. The findings indicate that personalized instruction, multi-sensory approaches, and assistive technology are the most effective interventions for improving academic outcomes. Educational interventions for learning disabilities are generally effective, though their success is contingent on overcoming several challenges. Future efforts should focus on improving accessibility, teacher support, and tailored interventions to enhance outcomes for students with learning disabilities.
