Abstract:

To explore the impact of cooperative learning (CL) on Chinese students’ English oral proficiency, a 15-week quasi-experiment was conducted in a Chinese university during the first term of the Academic Year 2007-2008. A non-randomized pre-test-post-test control group research design was adopted with 37 first-year students in the experimental class (the EC) and 36 in the control class (the CC). The EC students participated in CL in conjunction with regular language instruction in an integrated skills course. They were exposed to CL activities for about 30 minutes in each session, making up a tot

Abstract:

The present study examines „relating‟ between Vietnamese teachers of English (VETs) and native English-speaking teachers (NESTs) when teaching EFL students at tertiary level in Vietnam. The aim is to understand the interpersonal dynamics between them and the factors influencing their relationships. A qualitative research study was carried out employing multiple data collection methods including semi-structured interviews, class observation, note-taking, audio/video recording of classes and interactions, and gathering of documents. Data were collected in two phases. In Phase 1 nine teachers wer

Abstract:

The use of an interactive mathematics software program was applied to first-year Foundations-level female students in a CLIL classroom in the United Arab Emirates, utilizing PC tablets. The learning experience was made to be enjoyable as well as meaningful, all while utilizing technology in the hopes of creating more autonomous students who would benefit from the change in pedagogy as they embarked on their tertiary learning experience. Their textbooks were integrated into an interactive program using Blackboard (Bb) to include video clips, authentic applications, and interactive applications

Abstract:

Communicative language teaching (CLT) has been extensively discussed and researched, especially in an English as a second language (ESL) context. Some literature has also explored the adaptation of CLT in English as a foreign language (EFL) environments, such as in Asian countries like China. No research, however, has been conducted with consideration given to a specific group of teachers who teach non-English major students at the tertiary level in China. The present study was designed to investigate Chinese university teachers' perception of the implementation of CLT in non-English ma

Abstract:

The research study investigates students' understanding of hypothesis testing by exploring their conceptual and procedural knowledge of the topic. Eighteen volunteer students from a large introductory service subject in statistics were interviewed three times during their semester of study - at the beginning of the semester, several weeks after their introduction to the topic of hypothesis testing, and after the final exam in the subject. This thesis reports mainly on the results from the third interview, in which students were required to complete a Concept Mapping task and two Hypothesis

This study investigates whether the remedial tertiary-level EFL classes in the Arabian Gulf States optimize the process of acquiring English for the majority of the students, namely the graduates of government high schools.

Abstract:

It is widely assumed that collaborative learning leads to better learning. This assumption is supported by some research evidence especially in Western countries. However, there has been very limited research into the three elements which are the focus of the present study, namely: collaborative reading, EFL pedagogy, and the Iranian context. This research addressed four questions related to Iranian EFL reading comprehension classes in two different educational settings: 1. Does collaborative reading lead to greater comprehension of a text than private reading? If so: 2. Does this effect vary

Abstract:

Contemporary research into the health concerns of students is sparse, particularly in New Zealand. Overseas literature indicates that students in tertiary education institutions may be at increased risks for physical health problems, stress-related syndromes and emotional dysfunctions. Of particular concern are anxiety disorders as, in addition to their negative impact on quality of life, they are associated with impaired academic performance and poorer educational outcomes. Skilled, educated individuals are a social asset and it is therefore surprising that so little interest has been pai

This high correlation suggests that these two skills are systematically related and knowledge of one is a valid predictor of the other.
