Abstract:
This study investigates the perceptions and experiences of English language teachers and students regarding the use of storytelling techniques in language education. Quantitative data were collected through surveys from 187 students to assess their beliefs regarding the effectiveness of storytelling in enhancing language areas and motivation. Additionally, qualitative interviews were conducted with 12 English language teachers to explore their perspectives on the challenges and benefits of incorporating storytelling into language instruction. Quantitative findings reveal that students generally perceive storytelling as highly effective in enhancing vocabulary acquisition and communicative skills, with varying opinions regarding its impact on grammar enhancement and motivation. English language students tend to exhibit higher levels of motivation and engagement compared to Chinese language students and bi-language students. Qualitative interviews highlight the importance of careful planning, time management, and narrative selection for effective implementation of storytelling techniques. Overall, the study underscores the multifaceted benefits of storytelling in language learning and emphasizes the importance of integrating storytelling activities into language education programs to meet diverse student needs

Abstract:
The advancement of artificial intelligence and other related automation technologies has put forward new challenges at the tertiary education level, namely, the development of digital competence alongside the development of core knowledge, skills and competence of the study programme. These preconditions create favourable environments and justify the need to elaborate on digital competences in the humanities. To address these needs, the course Introduction to Applied Linguistics and Language Technologies has been designed as a part of the EU Recovery and Resiliency Facility project Language Technology Initiative and included in the BA study programme. The course comprises activities specifically targeted at the skills for language technology application for automated text analysis and synthesis and audiovisual material processing in students’ professional activity and research. The goal of the present study was to uncover which digital competence areas are enhanced, what competence levels are reached by these activities according to the definitions in the DigComp 2.2 framework and pilot them. To reach the goal, the present exploratory case study focused on an in-depth investigation of the mentioned course, i.e., eight activities that aim at language technology skills were mapped according to DigComp 2.2 and piloted. This process revealed that the activities cover two competence areas at level 6 and level 7. The piloting results were summarised through the course performance metrics and the corpus analysis of students’ questionnaires.

Abstract:
This article applies research findings in the area of the Noticing Hypothesis to help enhance English learners&rsquo; awareness of the language form. This article first clarifies focus-on-forms, focus-on-form and form-focused instruction to provide a pedagogical framework for the instructional techniques presented. Then it considers research on <em>input enhancement</em> (i.e., target forms are made salient through bolding, etc.) that suggests a strategy to facilitate language learners&rsquo; noticing of the language form. The article also considers both external factors (e.g., target form and instructed focus on meaning) and internal factors (e.g., communicative value, prior knowledge, and first language background) that contribute to success in noticing. To translate research into practice, this article introduces a conflated method of form-focused instruction as a practical way to apply research and theory for classroom teaching and learning. This method includes input enhancement combined with other instructional techniques, such as input flood, recast, explicit instruction, and multimodal input, considering the role of working memory capacity. The paper concludes with suggestions for future classroom research directions.

Abstract:
Effective communication is fundamental to pharmaceutical practice, especially for pharmacy professionals working in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) environments. This research investigates the influence of a specialized EFL speaking program aimed at improving the communication abilities of pharmacy students. A group of fifty male pharmacy diploma students participated in a three-month program cantered on role-play, task-based learning (TBL), and integrated vocabulary training. Assessments conducted before and after the course evaluated enhancements in confidence, clarity, use of pharmaceutical language, and fluency. The findings revealed statistically significant improvements across all measured aspects, with the use of pharmaceutical language showing the most notable enhancement (mean increase: 2.6 to 4.3, p &lt; 0.001). These results emphasize the success of contextualized and hands-on methods in EFL teaching, showcasing the capacity of such initiatives to equip pharmacy students for the linguistic and professional requirements of their careers. The research underscores the necessity of integrated approaches that confront linguistic, cultural, and psychological hurdles in training for professional communication.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立臺北教育大學<br>特殊教育學系碩士班<br>98<br>The main purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of narrative- based language program applied on children with hearing-impairment in elementary school. The participants of the study were 3 second-grade and third-grade school-age children with hearing-impairment whose communication mode is oral. The study method was “multiple probes design subjects” research. The narrative-based language program was the independent variable, the quality of verbal narrative skill and the ability of storytelling (including describing characteristics, backgrounds and situations, main ideas, consequences and giving feedback), the fluency of verbal narrative (proportion of mazes) and narrative cohesion (using conjunction and pronoun properly). Every student received thirty-six sessions of experimental classes, and reviewed the story at the end of the class. Each class was recorded as sample of storytelling. After two-week recess, the students were tested in three weeks, twice a week in order to maintain the effect of the teaching (i.e. intervention). Each sample was transcribed into texts for analyses after eliminating the meaningless words and mazes. Visual analysis of graphs as applied to evaluate the instant learning and the maintenance effects, feedback and interviews with students, parents, and teachers were social validity of the study. The results could be summarized as follows: 1.The narrative-based program gave rise to the maintenance effect of hearing-impaired children’s oral performance instantly, but the effect wasn’t simultaneous. 2.The narrative-based program gave rise to the maintenance effect of hearing-impaired children’s storytelling ability instantly, especially the main ides of the story. 3.The narrative-based program gave rise to verbal narrative fluency of hearing-impaired children, and reduced the proportion of mazes, but the effect wasn’t simultaneous. 4.The narrative-based program gave rise to the maintenance effect of hearing-impaired children’s narrative cohesion instantly. 5.Teachers and parents had positive attitude toward the narrative-based language program, the program gave rise to the participants’ verbal narrative and communication skill, and confidence as well. All the testers came to an agreement that the program benefits the verbal narrative skill, as a result, the experiment here was provided with social validity.

Full text
Abstract:
The Literacy Enhancement Hypothesis states that the development of literacy skills and exposure to textual input during the school-age period leads to more robust linguistic representations of morphosyntactic structures that strengthen psycholinguistic processing mechanisms such as working memory. This chapter reviews general psycholinguistic findings that support the impact of written language on language development and entrenchment in different grammatical areas and discusses results of current studies of morphosyntactic aspects of Spanish designed to test the literacy enhancement hypothesis with bilingual school-aged children. The findings suggest that print exposure in the heritage language contributes to strengthen and maintain early acquired linguistic structures that form the basis for the development of more complex syntax in Spanish. These results have implications for effective assessment, instruction, and intervention strategies to promote robust language and literacy skills and academic success in bilingual children.

Abstract:
In this concluding chapter, we bring together findings from the studies in this volume and place them within the context of prior research on audiovisual input, particularly within the broader framework of the SUBTiLL project. The findings are organized into three sections: captioned viewing, learning outcomes across various language dimensions, and individual differences. The first section addresses several concerns regarding captions, including their appropriateness for use with primary school children, a comparison with L1 subtitles, and caption enhancement. The second section delves into the observed improvements in vocabulary acquisition, content comprehension, grammar, pronunciation, and pragmatics. The third section examines individual differences, specifically focusing on vocabulary size, reading skills, language learning aptitude, and age. Finally, we discuss implications and propose future research directions.

Abstract:
AbstractFingerspelling receptive skills remain among the most difficult aspects of sign language for hearing people to learn due to the lack of access to practice tools that reproduce the natural motion of human signing. This problem has been exacerbated in recent years by the move from desktop to mobile technologies which has rendered prior software platforms less accessible to general users. This paper explores a web-enabled 3D rendering architecture that enables real-time fingerspelling on a human avatar that can address these issues. In addition it is capable of producing more realistic motion than prior efforts that were video-based and provides greater interactivity and customization that will support further enhancements to self-practice tools for fingerspelling reception.

Abstract:
AbstractDefense artificial intelligence (AI) development in Turkey focuses primarily on improving the capabilities of autonomous systems, sensors, and decision support systems because Turkey believes autonomous systems are the future of modern warfare. Hence, autonomous systems, mainly uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs), have remained a priority in Turkish AI development since 2011 and have expanded to include all types of uncrewed vehicles. Increasing autonomous systems’ capability in intelligence gathering and fighting, as well as enabling swarm operations, are prioritized in developing defense AI. While Turkey enhances the capabilities of autonomous systems, humans will continue to be critical for decision-making in the foreseeable future. However, the fast pace of developing and deploying autonomous systems exacerbates the dilemma of human-machine interaction. Turkey believes that AI enhancements to decision-making systems would help humans make quicker decisions and ease human-machine interactions. Thus, Turkey specifically focuses on AI-related technologies like machine learning, computer vision, and natural language processing with an application focus on autonomous vehicles and robotics. The intertwined development of AI and related technologies form the core of Turkey’s AI ecosystem. Turkey’s AI ecosystem is nascent but growing. Turkey aims to create synergies between its defense and civilian industries, academic institutions, and government through various ecosystem initiatives. Turkey seeks to increase its R&amp;D spending on AI to increase employment and grow the ecosystem. Training and managing a skilled workforce are essential to building the indigenous AI development capacity that Turkey is looking for.

In communities identified by a minority language, school and education have a key role in their maintenance and enhancement; at this time, though, it isn’t possible to drawn up a satisfactory result about the quality of minority language (ML) teaching in Italy; this is also because of the lack of a common and issued profile of the skills of the teachers.

Abstract:
With the aim of enhancing and developing learners’ multilingual repertoires, research has explored ‘plural methodological approaches’, such as the intercomprehension between related languages (IC), which is based on the teaching of two or more languages belonging to the same family. IC focuses on the development of receptive skills, while having a positive impact both on the enhancement of production skills and on the acquisition of language awareness and intercomprehension strategies that can be applied to the learning of further idioms. This paper will illustrate the theoretical-methodological paradigm adopted in the design of innovative digital resources for minority language teaching, based on the simultaneous learning of Cimbrian, English and German at a lower secondary school in the province of Trento, Italy. The pupils will test the resources after having attended the curricular CLIL module in English and German. In this respect, the pilot study will also explore potential positive interactions between CLIL and IC language learning activities.

Abstract:
To improve warfighter performance, medical science seeks pharmacological, surgical, genetic, and neurological technologies to make soldiers smarter, faster, stronger, and more alert. The sought after soldier is a gladiator or Jedi knight. Scientific research, however, is unwarranted if superfluous, and there are grave doubts about the usefulness of super soldiers in modern warfare where warfighters need language and cultural skills rather than strength and endurance. Beneficial enhancement research, therefore, focuses on learning, information analysis, and organizational efficiency that do not require invasive, irreversible, or surgical interventions. Utilizing noninvasive technologies such as wearables or neuroplasticity training carry few risks and enable research subjects to give fully informed consent. Nevertheless, medical scientists are not conducting therapeutic research to ameliorate pain and suffering. They are building weapons of war. As a result, enhancement researchers and providers jeopardize their immunity on the battlefield and leave themselves liable to defensive killing in war.

Abstract:
Peer feedback is viewed as an effective activity in foreign language teaching and learning that allows students to receive more feedback on their writing performance for improvement. This study was carried out to investigate the second- year English majored students’ attitudes towards giving and receiving peer feedback as well as their evaluation of peer feedback in IELTS Academic writing Task 1. Questionnaires were used to collect the data. The findings obtained from the questionnaires showed that the English sophomores faced a lot of difficulties in giving and receiving peer feedback in IELTS academic writing Task 1 in terms of four criteria although all students were well aware of the significant role of peer feedback in developing their writing skills. From the findings, it is recommended that teachers should provide students with adequate training and practice while deploying peer feedback activities in IELTS academic writing teaching so that students can benefit a great deal from peer feedback in their writing production enhancement.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots on university English as a foreign language (EFL) students’ language use and critical thinking skills in English speech script writing. The 18-week English-speaking course was designed and conducted on the basis of production-oriented approach, a theory of foreign language education with Chinese features. By integrating the production-oriented approach with the technological capabilities of the chatbot, the course instructor offered 30 university EFL students theoretical instruction and task-driven writing activities focused on public speaking in English. Throughout the course, the participants worked in collaboration with the AI chatbot to complete each script writing assignment. Ultimately, the instructor collected and analyzed all original drafts, revised drafts, and transcripts of conversations between the students and the AI chatbot. The study’s results showed that: (1) four indicators of lexical complexity in the revised drafts were significantly improved compared with the original drafts (p &lt; 0.01), whereas one indicator of syntactic complexity also demonstrated significant enhancement (p &lt; 0.05); (2) in comparison with the original drafts, the majority of the revised drafts (71.93%) showed modifications in regard to claims, warrants, and grounds; (3) the contents of the conversations between students and AI chatbot were grouped into three themes: making suggestions for language revisions, extending and developing the main points, and providing supporting materials for arguments. The study’s results can be taken as a reference by English teachers for designing and conducting writing and speaking courses. The study also contributes empirical evidence towards building AI-assisted EFL teaching theories and methods in the era of AI.

Abstract:
The global aviation industry operates within an intricate framework of safety protocols, regulatory standards, and continuous performance enhancement measures. One critical area that has evolved significantly in recent years is the integration of the Simulated Air Traffic Control Environment (SATCE) in pilot and Air Traffic Control (ATC) training programs. SATCE offers immersive, realistic air traffic control scenarios, enhancing the competency of pilots and air traffic controllers in managing complex operational environments. This paper explores the pivotal role of SATCE in implementing the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Level 4 language proficiency requirements, focusing on enhancing communication, decision-making, and situational awareness skills. ICAO Level 4 language proficiency requirements were established to ensure that aviation professionals possess the necessary communication skills to operate safely and effectively in international airspace. These requirements emphasize communicating clearly, managing unexpected situations, and maintaining operational efficiency in diverse linguistic contexts. Integrating SATCE into training programs provides a dynamic platform for pilots and air traffic controllers to engage in authentic, high-fidelity communication exercises that mirror real-world scenarios. This paper employs a qualitative methodology grounded in Saunders' Research Onion framework, incorporating a thematic analysis of 30 peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2019 and 2024. The research focuses on SATCE applications, including the Advanced Simulation Technology Inc. (ASTi) Simulated Environment for Realistic ATC (SERA) system and the implementation of the Test of English for Aviation (TOEFA) method for pilots and air traffic controllers. The findings highlight the effectiveness of SATCE in fostering the competencies required by ICAO Level 4, particularly in enhancing Evidence-Based Training (EBT) and Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA) frameworks. Through an in-depth analysis of SATCE's impact on pilot and air traffic controller training, this study identifies key themes related to adaptive learning environments, regulatory alignment, and technological innovation. The results underscore the importance of integrating SATCE into aviation training programs to support continuous improvement in communication proficiency, operational safety, and overall resilience. The paper concludes with recommendations for policymakers, training organizations, and industry stakeholders to optimize using SATCE to meet ICAO language proficiency standards and enhance global aviation safety.

Abstract:
E-learning becomes a widely used form of educational service provided with or without teacher's support as a pre-study, main course, self-study support, or refreshment. A variety of course development tools, simple and free, or sophisticated and costly, are available for course development. Together with didactic-supported methodology and guidelines for learning content development, these instruments ensure a pedagogical quality of the resulting course. If a course development tool produces a learning content according to the SCORM standard [], it enables its usage as a whole or by some components - learning objects - by a large audience, i.e. those who can access it from a SCORM-compliant learning management system. Reusability, i.e. a capacity of being applied in various contexts, is an important feature for raising efficiency of learning content production and its ROI. So far, SCORM as a technical standard ensured technical side of reusability, whereas a didactically meaningful combination of the learning object was a responsibility of a course designer. Steady growth of users going on-line from their mobile devices - phones, smartphones, tablets, e-books - pushes mobile content development. Mobile learning research matured, growing from small sessions and workshops to an individual trend, resulting in a number of big international conferences. The research in m-learning emphasizes on its innovative and informal aspects, highlighting new learning activities and scenarios, enabling creativity, interaction and collaboration [ ]. Rough summary of m-learning could be visualized as isolated islands of innovative learning experiences, together with early pilots on mobile access to the web-based learning content and studies of basic content features accessible across various mobile platforms. Although some attention has been paid to the "legacy" content and its transfer to the mobile-accessible format, this issue has been addressed solely from a technical viewpoint. Thus, the quality of the resulting mobile learning was not a subject of study, and the differences in e-learning and m-learning environments were not addressed. This study is intended to extend the understanding of the reusability concept beyond technical solutions and emphasize on the value of didactically sound content in a similar way it is done by the Learning Design []. The ultimate goal may be seen in providing some guidelines for transformation of e-learning course to its m-learning version ensuring the preservation didactical quality. The purpose of this paper is to identify differences between e-learning and m-learning environments, and explore factors that may influence the quality of the e-learning content delivered in m-learning environment using a language course as an example. Khan's e-learning framework [ ] was selected as an instrument for the learning environment analysis. The proposed framework comprises eight dimensions, along which factors influencing the quality of the e-learning environment under study are analyzed. Since its introduction, the framework has been applied to various large-scale and small-scale environments. The language learning content is represented by the ELTEC - a self-study language course [ ] which is intended for enhancement of the professional tasks-oriented language skills. The course is highly interactive though some learning activities are preceded by the explanations and illustrations. Comparison of language learning activities within e-learning and m-learning environments led to some guidelines for creation of mobile version of the ELTEC. It was concluded that due to the environment differences and specifics of the mobile devices the course should be re-organized before being transformed to the mobile version, preserving the purpose but re-defining learning objectives.

Abstract:
As our world becomes more globalized, learning new languages will be an essential skill to communicate across countries and cultures and as a means to create better opportunities for oneself [4]. This holds especially true for the English language [5]. Since the rise of smartphones, there have been many apps created to teach new languages such as Babbel and Duolingo that have made learning new languages cheap and approachable by allowing users to practice briefly whenever they have a free moment for. This is where we believe those apps fail. These apps do not capture the interest or attention of the user’s for long enough for them to meaningfully learn. Our approach is to make a video game that immerses our player in a world where they get to practice English verbally with NPCs and engage with them in scenarios they may encounter in the real world [6]. Our approach will include using chatbot AI to engage our users in realistic natural conversation while using speech to text technology such that our user will practice speaking English [7].
