Abstract

Language diversity is generally a norm in multilingual South African classroom. Orellana and García (2014) describe how multilingual speakers need to learn tools to allow them to be flexible with their language skills. Language brokering and code-switching form part of the everyday teaching and learning tools needed in South African multilingual classroom setting. Data was collected by means of observation and semi-structured interviews. Snowball sampling was used to select Francophone immigrant children or learners who were observed outside the classroom in order to establish how they interacted with their peers on school playgrounds. Their personal narratives were collected and analyzed to enhance triangulation and thematic analysis was used to understand how immigrant children acted as language brokers. This research sets out to consolidate the position of language brokering and code-switching as pedagogically oriented language practices in a multilingual classroom setting. Using the sociocultural theories and the funds of knowledge (FoK), the current study rejects a deficit model, where linguistically and culturally diverse institutions of learning are reputed to be incapable of offering rich learning experiences and resources.

Abstract

This article reports on pedagogical practices in teaching SiSwati as a first language (SL1) in diverse linguistic settings of Eswatini. In response to educational research indicating the vital role played by a learner’s first language in learning, the Eswatini government embarked on an exercise of decolonising the curriculum in 2011 by using SiSwati as the medium of instruction and learning in the foundation and middle phases and a core subject throughout primary and senior secondary school. However, arguably, research on African language pedagogy is scanty, let alone teaching of SiSwati, as the little available research has been on issues of policy, thus leaving a knowledge gap on the pedagogy in SiSwati first language (SL1). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore pedagogical practices that are used in the SL1 class in compliance with the policy, which provides for SiSwati to be a compulsory subject and a vehicle for teaching and learning in early primary schools.. This qualitative case study involved eight teachers who taught SL1 in the foundation and middle phases. Data were generated through interviews. The findings indicated that teachers’ practices were anchored in the understanding that teaching SL1 meant equipping learners with functional language skills, such as productive and receptive skills, essential for studying across subject curricula. However,  a lack of pedagogical knowledge thwarted teachers’ practices to teach language in general, let alone to multilingual learners as expository pedagogy dominated SL1 classrooms, as opposed to curriculum requirements that learner-centred pedagogies anchored in social practice be used. Besides, these findings advocate for culturally responsive pedagogies appropriate to teach SL1 to learners from diverse linguistic backgrounds.

Abstract

The integration of content knowledge and language should be applied while instructing writing in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) lessons. In an online lesson, additional vital support comes from a proper online writing tool. Therefore, the present study aims to portray how to teach writing in ESP classes using remote Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) combined with Google Docs as an online writing tool. The study employed a qualitative case study. 18 students from the Office Administration major at a private Indonesian university in Central Jakarta were involved in the study. Observations and open-ended questionnaires were used to collect the data. The observations were structured based on the writing stage, while the open-ended questionnaires were arranged based on the Uses and Gratification Expectancy (UGE) constructs. The findings revealed that all CLIL elements are applied to teach ESP writing in a full online learning setting; all 4Cs (communication, culture, content, and cognition) are detected during the learning either before or during the writing via Google Docs. Pertaining to the use of Google Docs, based on the cognitive, affective, personal, and perceived e-learning (PeLE) constructs of the UGE, most students give positive views after using it in their writing classes. In short, CLIL and Google Docs make a good collaboration in teaching ESP writing. Recommendations for potential research are also discussed.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has compelled EFL teachers to adapt their instruction online. Evidence shows how protracted school closures affect students' ability to learn EFL. The development of techniques to aid students in making up for lost learning would require this knowledge for EFL learning. For this reason, it is necessary to know in greater detail students' motivation to learn EFL in the post-pandemic era. It is vital to have a clear plan for individualized diagnoses and to put remedial programs into place. 100 senior high school students from a private school participated. Data for this study were gathered using an online self-reported questionnaire measuring intrinsic and extrinsic motivation which can encourage students’ EFL learning. The results of the study showed a variety of learners’ internal and external factors of motivation such as students‘ desire to learn a language to improve their skills, learn about diverse cultures, beliefs, and viewpoints, and simply to pass their exam. Thus,  acting as either pulling or dragging forces of learning English. Besides the limitations, these research results would impact teachers’ teaching strategies, materials, and media selections to reduce students’ learning loss.
