Resumen:

Large language models (LLMs) have recently gained attention in automated writing evaluation (AWE) due to their flexibility, ease of use, and free accessibility. However, most existing studies have relied on standardized rubrics and detailed scoring guidelines to guide model outputs. Recent evidence suggests that LLMs can adapt their scoring behavior through example-based calibration. Building on this insight, the present study examines whether ChatGPT-4o can mirror individual instructors’ evaluative tendencies. Data consisted of 100 previously graded final exam writing samples from Saudi students of English as a second language (ESL), provided by five instructors at a Saudi university’s Bachelor of Arts program. GPT (generative pre-trained transformer) was calibrated using instructor-graded writing samples to enhance its alignment...

Resumen:

Almost since the onset of emergency remote teaching due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring of 2020, studies examined how teachers and students adjusted to the change, including in language courses. Some of this research has explored language teachers’ self-efficacy and confidence in teaching remotely, and to a lesser extent how student language learning has been affected; most studies have not differentiated among languages taught or between different student age groups. Through a survey of 173 PK–16 language instructors in the United States who switched from face-to-face classroom teaching to remote teaching in the spring of...

Temas: artículo investigación

Resumen:

This study investigated the impact of task type and proficiency level on second language learners’ task engagement, combing the discourse analytic method with the idiodynamic method. Sixty undergraduate English-as-a-foreign-language learners in China were divided into high- and low-proficiency groups based on their scores on the Oxford Placement Test. The learners were randomly paired with a partner who shared the same proficiency level and completed a narrative task and a decision-making task. Their spoken discourse of task performance was analyzed to explore behavioral, cognitive, and social engagement. The results of the two tasks...

Research on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in language education becomes more popular. This revolutionary technology is regarded as a promising tool to assist language learning environments by empowering automatic feedback, intelligent tutoring, and personalization. While designing Intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (ICALL) environments, educators have followed the First Principles of Instruction (FPI), including problem-centered, activation, demonstration, application, and integration. These instructional design principles...

Temas: artículo pronunciación

Resumen:

A growing body of research, especially on second language (L2) English, has shown the positive effects of explicit pronunciation teaching. However, some beliefs which prevent explicit pronunciation teaching still remain, notably, the belief that regular speaking during class time is enough to improve pronunciation outcomes. This article analyses the evolution of L2 Spanish vowels in four students at an Australian university. An analysis of 1,387 vowels from the first, third...

Resumen:

There is a great deal of variation in gains found between studies of second language (L2) incidental vocabulary learning, as well as many factors that affect learning. This meta-analysis investigated the effects of exposure to L2 meaning-focused input on incidental vocabulary learning with an aim to clarify the proportional gains that occur through meaning-focused learning. Twenty-four primary studies were retrieved providing 29 different effect sizes and a total sample size of 2,771 participants (1,517 in experimental groups vs. 1,254 in control groups). Results showed large overall effects...

O Professor Ampliado: Reimaginando o Papel Docente na Era da IA

Tipo: libro

Temas: libro inteligencia artificial

Resumen:

Libro bilingüe (portugués-inglés) en el que se defiende que la IA no debe entenderse como un fin en sí misma, sino como una herramienta que, utilizada con intencionalidad pedagógica, puede ampliar los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje. La IA puede ser una aliada para promover la inclusión, la equidad y la innovación, siempre que su uso esté basado en la escucha atenta de las realidades locales y en la valoración de la diversidad de los contextos escolares. En lugar de uniformizar las prácticas, debe apoyar trayectorias personalizadas, sensibles a las múltiples formas de aprender y enseñar.

El libro también advierte sobre los riesgos de profundizar las desigualdades educativas. El...

This study explores how ChatGPT, used as a dialogic mediator, supports CEFR-based mediation and learner autonomy among multilingual university students at A1 to A2 proficiency levels in Spanish. A key finding is the contrast between learners’ observable autonomy during AI-mediated tasks and the deeper strategic awareness revealed in post-task reflections. Grounded in sociocultural theory and the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) Companion Volume (2020...

Resumen:

The present study investigates language learners’ perceptions of what types of language learning activities they carry out in the Spanish second language (L2) classroom and what activities are the most common ones. A further aim is to investigate how the activities align with a model based on task-based language teaching. The group studied are Swedish learners of Spanish as L2 in a Swedish setting, where out of class exposure to first language (L1) Spanish is generally limited. The activities carried out in class are therefore expected to have a high impact on learners’ L2 acquisition in Spanish. The participants were tested after...

Beyond Methods: Macrostrategies for Language Teaching

Tipo: libro

Temas: libro enseñanza de lenguas

Resumen:

Beyond Methods: Macrostrategies for Language Teaching presenta un marco teórico para la enseñanza de lenguas que se sitúa más allá del uso de métodos pedagógicos cerrados y predefinidos. El autor parte de la idea de que la enseñanza de idiomas ha estado tradicionalmente organizada en torno a métodos que prescriben procedimientos, técnicas y secuencias didácticas, y sostiene que estos enfoques no siempre se ajustan a la diversidad de contextos educativos existentes.

El libro introduce el concepto de pedagogía post-método, entendida como una orientación que prioriza la adaptación contextual, la toma de decisiones informadas por parte del profesorado y la relación entre teoría, investigación y práctica docente. En este enfoque, el profesorado no aplica métodos de forma mecánica, sino que diseña su...
