Abstract

This research article explores the integration of climate change education in the context of English as a Foreign Language teacher education. As climate–induced disasters are on the rise, the mitigation of climate change necessitates an interdisciplinary approach to climate education. While science education has extensively addressed climate change education, the field of language education and literacy has not taken drastic measures to participate in climate change education. The article heeds the call for more research on climate change education in second/foreign language and literacy programs. Using the connected learning and ecojustice pedagogy, we engaged 20 preservice teachers in exploring climate change issues within a semester-long creative writing course. Analyses of classroom discussions, reflective writing, and picture book projects showed that the preservice teachers’ awareness of climate change issues developed as they delved into the projects that required their understanding of the global climate issues with the local connection. The article concludes by arguing that connected learning and ecojustice pedagogy support the development of climate change awareness while facilitating preservice teachers’ multimodal writing skills. It recommends that language educators engage in interdisciplinary participation to address climate change issues through curricular engagements that support multimodal-based climate literacy learning.

Abstract

Although the Extensive Reading (ER) program has multiple benefits for language learners, the long nature of this program can make it daunting, especially for those with limited book selection.  Thus, ensuring a book collection that fits the learners’ preferences is crucial, not only to maintain their reading enjoyment during the program but also to save costs. This research then investigated learners' reading preferences during an ER program, particularly by looking at the reading genres that were frequently chosen by the learners. This research was conducted on 30 university students who took English as a mandatory course. The course used ER as part of the curriculum. This research recorded the learners’ reading preferences through a reading log. This log must be filled in after reading a book or text. Overall, the research generated 373 entries. The results of this research indicated participants’ high interest in books with the themes of drama (slice of life), tales, and comedy. The current research also discovered a preference difference between gender. In conclusion, this research believes ER practitioners must consider learners’ preferences to provide suitable book collections for students. Thus, the learners can read more comfortably and maintain their motivation.

Abstract

Introducing the right English words in an adequate number and levels to beginner EFL learners is of paramount importance to enable them to communicate and develop their English further. This corpus study is meant to investigate the number and levels of English words, and their frequency of occurrences in a set of three official English course books for Indonesian junior high school students of the seventh to ninth grades, published by The Indonesian Ministry of Culture and Education. The study was conducted by converting each of the three English books into MS Word documents, eliminating the non-English and very common loanwords, saving each course book in plain text, and processing the plain text using a word frequency analysis program. The results show the English course books contain (1) a sufficient number of English words for comprehension of simplified pictured texts but not for authentic texts, (2) the high-frequency words that belong to the first, second thousand, and academic words, each of which is in an inadequate number, and (3) the frequency of word occurrences in the three books that is unlikely to lead to incidental word learning if no further efforts are made by the students and teachers.

Abstract

Higher education students who struggle with reading may find some relief via the use of technology, especially new and developing forms of technology. Even though augmented reality (AR) has been used in the classroom with great success to motivate and engage children who are difficult to teach, there hasn't been a lot of research done on how augmented print may help those who have trouble reading. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of augmented reality on perceived motivation for students currently enrolled in higher education, namely their engagement with and understanding of an upgraded design theory book, as well as their perceived motivation to read. This research was conducted using the mix method approach, supported with some different methodologies. The findings reveal that increased support for academic literature enhances motivation, engagement, and confidence in understanding, impacting both struggling and proficient readers. We concluded that students, regardless of their reading level, expressed a willingness to use AR reading assistance for future books. Further research is crucial given the heightened levels of motivation and confidence. This research aligns with technological advancements, and educators can influence the development of augmented reality apps for classroom use. Future studies should focus on students with reading difficulties, exploring the optimal design of AR experiences and learning games to enhance understanding and retention of art history lectures in higher education

Abstract

Continuous professional development (CPD) is integral in educational reform; developing and enhancing teachers’ pedagogical skills and knowledge. In Malaysia, the cascade training model is often preferred for CPD programmes in public secondary schools. This may be due to cost effectiveness and reach, where many teachers can be trained in a short timeframe. Critics of the cascade model of training tend however, point to a risk of knowledge being diluted as it is transferred from the trainers to the attendees and then to teachers in schools. This paper focuses on documenting the experiences of Malaysian secondary school English teachers attending school-based assessment (SBA) CPD training courses using the cascade training model. Adopting a qualitative research approach, through the use of in-depth semi-structured interviews, data was collected from 14 English teachers from 14 public secondary schools. The findings indicate that there were mixed experiences of teachers attending cascade training programs and that of subsequent trainings that were conducted by attendees of the programmes. These experiences were affected largely by the quality of the training programme (i.e. design of program curriculum and materials), trainer quality, participants selected, and follow up support afforded to participants. This paper culminates with recommendations for further CPD improvements.
