Abstract

Planning is required for a successful teaching-learning process. It is like a series of related activities that scaffold the learner because each step depends on the one before it. Therefore, it is believed that raising effective teachers requires developing their planning skills. The goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of lesson plans developed by English language student-teachers at Salahaddin University's College of Education. The written lesson plans that the preservice teachers submitted were assessed using a checklist made up of the essential elements of good lesson planning. The sample included 40 lesson plans that were created by preservice teachers. The chosen lesson plans were examined using quantitative content analysis, mainly descriptive statistics, to find out the mean, median, and standard deviation. The findings imply that better guidance and instruction may be needed for preservice teachers to effectively plan lessons. To write better lesson plans, pre-service teachers need teacher training programs. The research's conclusions showed that pre-service teachers are aware of the significance of lesson planning, but they encountered some challenges while doing so. As a result, creating a lesson plan became difficult. Further research will also enable us to learn more about how we can support the effective lesson-planning abilities of our future teachers.

Abstract

The rapid evolution of technology is reshaping the landscape of interpreting, with augmented reality (AR) emerging as a potent force driving transformative changes. This paper meticulously explores the profound implications of AR on interpreting practices, aiming to elucidate its transformative potential and influence on the future trajectory of the profession. Through an exhaustive examination of AR technology, current interpreting trends, and envisioned applications of AR in language services, this paper offers a comprehensive understanding of its impact on the interpreting domain. AR represents a paradigm shift in interpreting practices, offering unprecedented opportunities for language professionals to enhance communication and comprehension in multilingual contexts. Unlike virtual reality (VR), which immerses users in entirely synthetic environments, AR overlays digital information onto the physical world, thereby enriching real-world experiences. This paper critically examines current interpreting trends, including the integration of AR into interpretation workflows, and delves into ethical considerations arising from the use of AR in interpreting. By addressing issues related to privacy, accuracy, and the impact on human interpreters' roles, this paper emphasizes the importance of responsible and ethical use of technology in language services.

Abstract

The flipped classroom method, a learner-centered approach, holds potential benefits for EFL instruction. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the flipped classroom approach in improving EFL learning outcomes among Iranian undergraduate students. Participants included 120 undergraduate EFL learners from an institute in Isfahan. In a mixed-methods approach, students were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received instruction through the flipped classroom method, while the control group received traditional classroom instruction. Pre- and post-tests were administered to assess the participants' English language reading comprehension, grammar, and vocabulary knowledge. In addition, a thematic analysis was conducted on the students' responses from in-depth interviews to identify and explore emerging patterns and themes within the data. Paired samples t-test was used to analyze the data. The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher scores on the post-test compared to the control group, indicating that implementing the flipped classroom method in Iranian EFL classrooms has the potential to enhance learning outcomes and motivate students. This study provides evidence for the effectiveness of the flipped classroom approach in improving EFL learning outcomes among Iranian undergraduate students. Further research could explore the applicability of this approach in diverse cultural contexts and instructional settings. By adopting innovative, learner-centered methods like the flipped classroom, educators can transform EFL education and promote student success.

Abstract

The paper analyzes Kisukuma colour terms focusing on associative meanings encoded in colours. Data on colours are analyzed using thematic analysis where they are grouped and organized in eight kisukuma colour terms namely: Yape- white, Yapi- black, Yaza- red, Ndilizu- green Luduhlu/yanga- yellow, Bhuhulu/bhululu – blue, Matalaka/madaraka- light blue and Yakhu- grey. The study establishes that kisukuma colour terms are enriched with different associative meanings which have more positive than negative meanings in sense that the uses of yapi- black and yaza- red are mostly negative. In contrast, yape-white colour, luduluh- yellow and ndilizu- green colour mostly have positive associative meanings, bhuhulu/bhululu- blue, Matalaka/madaraka- light blue and yakhu- grey had narrow meanings which were positive.

Abstract

A strong vocabulary is essential for improved communication, which entails engaging with people in an effective manner. University freshmen always have a hard time learning a lot of new words related to their new academic lives. This problem can be resolved with the aid of Word Cloud, a language-related application. One Word Cloud is examined in the current study as a potential app to help students increase their vocabulary. The purpose of this study is to look into how Word Clouds affect students' ability to expand their vocabulary in English. The study hypothesizes that Word Clouds significantly influence students' vocabulary development. Not every student will find traditional vocabulary instruction methods to be interesting or useful. To assess the students' vocabulary growth, this experimental study compares the pre- and post-assessments of two groups of students before and after the treatment using the statistical T-Test. The findings indicate that Word Clouds have some effect on students' vocabulary, but not much because there was little variation in the post-test scores between the two groups. The study's conclusion aids in the advancement of language instruction and supports teachers in expanding their students' vocabulary.

Abstract

This study explores the use of illocutionary acts in the movie Where Hope Grows, focusing on the communication dynamics between the main characters, Calvin and Produce. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, the dialogues and interactions between Calvin and Produce were transcribed and coded based on John Searle's Speech Act Theory. The analysis reveals that representative acts account for 42.25% of the total illocutionary acts, while expressive acts account for 29.58%, reflecting the movie's emphasis on emotional expression and personal struggles. Directive acts contribute 23.94%, while commissive acts are found to be only 4.23% and declarative acts are absent. These findings suggest that Where Hope Grows highlights the use of representative and expressive acts to build a narrative based on the characters' beliefs and emotions, while directive and commissive acts are more limited. The study provides insights into how language is used to convey emotions, share thoughts, and influence others within the movie's context, and its implications for communication in various settings, such as personal relationships, education, and counseling.

Abstract

Indonesian migrant workers in Penang, Malaysia, face significant challenges in acquiring English speaking skills, primarily due to their lack of self-confidence, limited speaking skill, and insufficient opportunities for practice. This research examines the application of the scaffolding method by teachers to bridge the gap between learners’ current skills and their potential for growth in English speaking proficiency. Specifically, it analyzes the use of scaffolding in teaching speaking skills to Indonesian migrant workers at the English Academy Bengkulu Malaysia. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, the study involved the manager and two teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data collection methods included observation, interviews, and documentation analysis. The scaffolding method was implemented in four stages: assistance provided by others, assistance provided by the self, internalization, and de-automatization. In the first stage, teachers utilized affective, analytical, and social scaffolding techniques. During the second stage, students practiced speaking independently, with teachers emphasizing confidence by overlooking minor errors. The third stage, internalization, involved "outdoor activities" monitored via WhatsApp to facilitate real- life speaking practice. However, the final stage, de-automatization, was not fully realized, as students remained reliant on teacher instructions and preferred their native language outside of practice sessions.

Abstract

This research explores the integration of photographic memory principles into English Language Teaching (ELT), focusing on descriptive qualitative methods. Photographic memory (eidetic memory), enables individuals to vividly remember visual stimuli after brief exposure, which is crucial in contexts like ELT where retention and recall are paramount. Integrating these principles into ELT emphasizes active learning and memory retention to enhance language proficiency through engaging tasks that mirror real-world language use. Educators utilize visual, mnemonic, contextual, and interactive strategies alongside repetition, review, and multi-sensory approaches to optimize learning outcomes. This approach not only supports students in mastering English skills but also fosters cognitive abilities related to memory and learning. In ELT, photographic memory proves invaluable across various domains. Students with this ability excel in vocabulary acquisition by associating words with mental images or visual cues, aiding retention. They also benefit from vividly recalling grammar rules and sentence structures presented in class, enhancing comprehension. Moreover, photographic memory assists in reading comprehension by facilitating accurate recall of text details, thereby improving students' ability to analyze and discuss content effectively. In developing pronunciation and listening skills, these learners leverage memory to replicate correct models and remember spoken phrases accurately, crucial for language acquisition. Lastly, in exams like TOEFL or IELTS, where memorization is crucial, students with photographic memory excel in quickly retrieving and applying knowledge, significantly enhancing their exam performance. Integrating photographic memory principles into ELT not only enhances language learning outcomes but also nurtures overall engagement and cognitive development, making it a powerful tool in educational contexts focused on language proficiency and academic achievement.
