Abstract

Enhancing EFL learners’ writing performances should not solely rely on one-shot feedback imparted by second language educationalists but rather a joint endeavor where collaborative and mutual feedback exists to insistently support the ongoing writing learning enterprises. The further usage of peer feedback fully suits the aforementioned writing learning aspiration in which EFL learners collaboratively address a vast variety of beneficial suggestions, comments, and advice intended for the betterment of their writing performances. This present small-scale qualitative study was manifested in the form of an annotated bibliography review to comprehensively unravel the particular impacts of peer feedback in elevating EFL learners’ writing performances. To fulfill this major study objective, the researcher employed a document analysis method in reviewing the previously generated research results to yield more credible and understandable research results. To ascertain the relevance and applicability of the reviewed research results, the researcher also selected 10 prior peer feedback and writing investigations. The research results revealed that through the constant employment of peer feedback, worldwide EFL learners have progressively transfigured into more proactive, viable, and proficient writers since they conducted more efficient writing revisions in accord with their learning counterparts’ useful comments.

Abstract

This research study addresses the influence of face loss on students’ aggressive behaviours among Mohammed I University students in Oujda. The study examines how teachers' and peers’ face-threatening acts affect students’ aggressive behaviours. Using the mixed-methods research design, the research questions explore if face loss affects students' aggressive behaviours, how and to what extent face loss can cause a student to behave aggressively towards teachers and classmates, and the motive behind their aggressive behaviours. Data were collected using a survey that included 243 participants and interviews with 28 students who had experienced classroom face loss. Interview data were coded, and thematically analysed and survey data were quantitatively analysed. Both survey and interview data reveal that face loss does affect students' aggressiveness towards their teachers and peers. Such aggressive behaviours include physical and verbal abuse, direct and indirect aggression, and passive forms of aggression. The results also indicate that classroom face loss leaves students with negative attitudes towards their teachers, peers, and school subjects. Recommendations suggest further research vis-à-vis facework strategies employed by teachers to minimize student face loss and classroom embarrassment.

Abstract

This research examines the publication trends and emerging keywords within the domain of artificial intelligence applied to English education. Analyzing 74 documents sourced from Scopus using RStudio and Vosviewer revealed distinct patterns. Notably, the year 2021 marked a significant milestone with 26 articles, constituting 35.14% of total publications, while the preceding decade (2009-2020) contributed only 13 articles, representing less than 18%. However, the period from 2021 to 2023 experienced a noteworthy surge, introducing over 80% of the total publications, incorporating 60 new articles. Esteemed institutions like Hebei University of Engineering in China and three other affiliates each contributed 4 publications. The prominence of the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series underscores the influential role of technology conferences in shaping discussions around artificial intelligence in English education. An influential article, cited 20 times, focused on the integration of 5G and AI technologies to reform English education at universities, considering the necessity of cutting-edge technological infrastructure. Visual analysis highlights specific keywords such as speech recognition, quality control, teaching systems, and learning algorithms within yellow circles, suggesting potential areas for further research in the intersection of artificial intelligence and English education.

Abstract

Teacher agency in facing new national curriculum shifts has been a topic discussed widely around the world, as many nations implement curriculum shifts and transitions. Indonesia has also in its early years implemented the new national curriculum called Freedom-to-Learn Curriculum. This study is aimed at exploring the agency of language teachers of public junior high schools in two different towns in Java Island, Indonesia. Employing the ecological approach by Priestley, Biesta, and Robinson (2015) which supported the interplay and dynamics of iterative, practical-evaluative, and projective dimensions, this qualitative study brings into play the semi-structured and focus group discussion data-gathering techniques. Six teachers participated in this study. The finding showed that the level of agency was diverse ranging from high (demonstrated by three research participants), emerging (demonstrated by one participant), and low (participated by two participants). Future researchers might examine the teacher agency by involving more participants as well as capture the robust study of language teacher agencies from other parts of Indonesia.

Abstract

Although academic reading has gained positive attention in EFL classrooms, very little research has been undertaken regarding the descriptive relationship between such types of reading attitudes and article writing. This study focused on determining the academic reading attitudes of EFL students who were writing an article for an international journal. A total of 173 undergraduate and magister students enrolled in an EFL major voluntarily participated in the survey study. By using the AR attitude scale, the survey was undertaken via an online app (e.g., Google Form). The results reveal that there are three dimensions of students’ AR. Behavior factor seems to be negative for the students who read academic texts. They encountered difficulties in comprehending the texts during the article writing process. They believed in AR benefits for article writing, but most students were not confident in their reading competence. In short, AR has important values in developing article writing quality, but strategies are needed to fulfill the expectation.

Abstract

This research aims to determine students' perceptions and challenges faced using AI due to the gaps faced by EFL students. This research uses a qualitative method which uses two data collection techniques, namely observation as supporting data and interviews with 6 students from different classes as main data. To analyze the data, researchers used thematic analysis and then used content validity to support the research. The results of this research show that the majority of students agree that the use of AI in EFL classes is very helpful in the independent learning process and improves speaking, reading, writing, and giving ideas. So the researchers concluded that based on students' perceptions, these perceptions had a positive impact on the use of AI in EFL classes. Researchers hope that students and lecturers can use AI according to the role of AI. Researchers also hope that this research can become a reference for readers.
