Abstract

Classroom oral feedback helps students to improve their English language performance. The purpose of this study is to examine English language teachers' attitudes toward different types and methods of providing feedback on students' speech during English classes. To achieve this objective, eight speaking lessons for tenth-grade students at Mieraf Primary and secondary school were recorded. Transcriptions were made from these recorded lessons, specifically focusing on classroom exchanges involving teacher initiation, learners' responses, and teacher feedback. The feedback types utilized in the recorded lessons were based on the models proposed by Zahorik (1970) and Chaudron (1977). Furthermore, the frequency of each feedback type found in the recorded lessons was determined and analyzed. In addition to the transcriptions and analysis, questionnaires were administered to four English teachers who taught in the five sections. These teachers were also interviewed to gather their perspectives. The data collected from the questionnaires and interviews were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The findings revealed that the teachers frequently employed the elaborate praise type of feedback. Moreover, the majority of students expressed positive attitudes toward the feedback they received from their teachers regarding their speech. However, it was noted that a significant number of students expressed the need for feedback from their peers, but only if their teachers provided guidance on how to provide constructive comments to one another. Based on the results, it is recommended that students should be informed about the role of peer feedback in improving their speech. Additionally, teachers should create opportunities for students to enhance their speech skills independently and encourage them to receive feedback from their peers.

Abstract

This article seeks to evaluate the level and type of changes in Sesotho as a result of language contact in multilingual Gwanda South, Zimbabwe. It will indicate choices that speech communities have and reasons for specific language preferences. It looks at the multilingual situation in Gwanda South and the language choices that the community is free or forced to make. It seeks to indicate how language contact could result in language shifts in supposed multilingual communities that could be affected by other languages appearing and being used for essential social, political, religious, and administrative purposes. Survey data reveals that Gwanda South has the following languages: Sesotho, Ndebele, Chi-Jahunda, Venda, and English. Sesotho is the home language while Ndebele has come through administrators and its being the original national language for Matabeleland South. Chi-Jahunda is a primary/ indigenous variety for Gwanda South. Attention is centered on the apparent move from the home language to other varieties that have moved into the district over time. The main worry is the apparent demise of the home language due to both internal and external forces. While there might be a high level of retention of the language in the home domain, the use of languages that are spoken by the few combined with English as the official language tends to interfere with the retention and continued use of Sesotho. This suggests that language contact leads to a shift influenced by a speaker’s inability to preserve their mother language by switching to dominant languages as mediums at home and school once such languages have been learned and mastered.

Abstract

The topic of self-initiated professional development has garnered increasing attention among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers who are motivated to identify and address gaps in their professional development. This study aimed to investigate the perceptions, practices, and challenges of EFL teachers at Addis Ababa Science and Technology University with regard to self-initiated professional development. The participants consisted of 35 EFL instructors with 12 holding PhD degrees and the remaining 23 holding MA degrees at Addis Ababa Science and Technology University. The study adopted a concurrent mixed methods research design, utilizing both a questionnaire and semi-structured interviews for data collection. The study employed a total population sampling method and conducted semi-structured interviews with four randomly selected EFL teachers. Data analysis was performed separately for the questionnaire and interview data, followed by a mixed analysis to triangulate and corroborate the results. The findings revealed that the majority of the EFL teachers had a positive perception of self-initiated professional development, which was reflected in their practice of self-monitoring and analyzing critical incidents. However, the teachers did not engage in practices such as keeping a teaching journal, conducting action research, reflecting on their teaching, or developing a teaching portfolio. The challenges to self-initiated professional development were identified as lack of commitment, collaboration among colleagues, communication, and institutional support. This study highlights the potential of self-initiated professional development as an alternative means of addressing professional development needs among EFL teachers.

The sample was 20 students using purposive sampling. The instrument was an objective test. The procedure for collecting data used to test distribution and analysis data. The finding showed that students had excellent to very good achievement in writing skills through concept maps. It was indicated by the results of the mean score in the post-test.  it indicates that the student’s writing ability was in good to Very Good criteria. It means that writing a descriptive text with a concept map was better than writing descriptive text without a concept map. This research found the pedagogical implication that concept maps help teachers in providing active learning, creative, effective, and fun for students according to learning style. Newly, it can increase awareness of teachers on students’ learning difficulties and efforts to overcome their obstacles in writing.
