Resumen:

Classroom relationships represent a complex and dynamic system, in which students’ relationships with teachers and peers are intertwined with each other. A person-centered approach was used to investigate how multiple characteristics of a good-quality relationship (i.e., validation, caring, and instrumental guidance) with teachers and peers combined to form English-as-a-foreign-language primary school students’ classroom relationships profiles. Four distinct profiles of classroom relationships were identified: Supportive, Teacher-oriented, Moderate, and Isolated. Whether students’ gender and English proficiency level significntly predicted their likelihood of belonging to each profile was tested...

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: propuesta didáctica

Temas: dramatización

Resumen:

En esta experiencia práctica, pretendo proponer una serie de actividades que podemos realizar en las clases de español para extranjeros utilizando las técnicas dramáticas y que conseguirán despertar el interés de los alumnos por el estudio de la lengua española, disfrutarán, aprenderán y serán los constructores de su propio conocimiento. Todas ellas, las he realizado en mis clases con alumnos de edades comprendidas entre catorce y diecisiete años en los niveles A1-A2 y B1, aunque se pueden realizar en el resto de niveles. Todas se pueden adaptar a las condiciones, al contexto y a las necesidades de los alumnos.

Incorporating project-based language learning into distance learning: Creating a homepage during computer-mediated learning sessions

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: enseñanza/aprendizaje de lenguas

Resumen:

This quasi-experimental study reports on the outcomes of a video-synchronous learning program in which an element of project-based foreign language learning was integrated. The project chosen was to cooperatively create a homepage. American students learning Japanese in the United States and Japanese students learning English in Japan made pairs and communicated in both their native and target languages via Skype to complete the project. The goals of this educational program were to increase intrinsic motivation in learners and improve their target language oral abilities, and identify challenges and problems with implementation. The program was conducted during the spring semester in 2017 and evaluated both quantitatively (via pre- and posttests) and qualitatively (via surveys and reflection papers). The results show that both groups...

A retrodictive qualitative modeling study of complex and dynamic language learning motivation viewed as control, value and truth effectiveness

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: motivación

Resumen:

The dynamics of second language learning motivation (L2 motivation), which depends on multiple intra-personal and contextual influences, is increasingly examined. As part of this research trend, we explore the usefulness of a global view of motivation – covering control, value and truth effectiveness – for tracing English majors’ motivational development spanning their entire learning histories. Viewing L2 motivation as a complex system, we employ complex dynamic systems theory and retrodictive qualitative modeling. We created a “blueprint” integrating diverse motivational forces under the three types of effectiveness. Control emerged as crucial as, in interaction with the others, it pushed the motivational system into qualitatively different states, particularly through feedback on progress and the (non-)compatibility of goal foci (...

Foreign language teaching anxiety between pre-service and in-service English teachers: A psychological network analysis

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: factores afectivos

Resumen:

Foreign language teaching anxiety (FLTA) was reconceptualized as a multidimensional construct, involving both linguistic, target language-related anxiety and non-linguistic, general teaching anxiety. However, the interaction of these two types of anxieties, and the extent to which that interaction differs between pre-service and in-service teachers, remains untapped. To address this gap, this study surveyed 170 pre-service and 186 in-service English teachers. Psychological network analysis was used to visualize intricate interrelationships among linguistic and non-linguistic FLTA dimensions within each group. Results showed that linguistic and non-linguistic dimensions were intricately interconnected within both teacher groups. Notably, self-perception of language proficiency and lack of student interest emerged as the most central...

One size does not fit all: Distinct patterns of growth mindset and motivation underlying feedback-seeking behaviors of adolescent L2 writers

Dawei Wei (2026)

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: enseñanza/aprendizaje de lenguas

Resumen:

Feedback-seeking behaviors (FSB), namely, attending to written comments (feedback monitoring) and requesting clarification or additional feedback (feedback inquiry), are central to writer agency and writing outcomes. Existing studies have yet to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the motivational underpinnings of FSB, particularly for adolescents. Prior FSB research also treated second language (L2) writers as a homogeneous group, overlooking variations in motivational configuration across different stages of writing development. Addressing these gaps, this study draws on situated expectancy-value theory (SEVT) to examine how motivation mediates a writing growth mindset’s influence on FSB and whether the associations vary across writing proficiency levels in a Chinese secondary-school context. Participants were 303 adolescent L2...

La polisemia: fuente natural de actividades para las clases de español

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: propuesta didáctica

Temas: semántica

Resumen:

El objetivo que nos proponemos en este estudio será el de presentar el fenómeno de la polisemia desde el punto de vista de la didáctica de las lenguas extranjeras. El análisis de voces polisémicas y el hecho de que el número de sentidos de una lexía en una lengua determinada rara vez sea igual a la cantidad de sentidos del vocablo equivalente en otra lengua, puede ofrecer al profesor una oportunidad para introducir, de manera sencilla y natural, actividades para profundizar en esta cuestión. El detectar diferencias de esta índole —que aparecen en distintos registros y en todos los niveles— puede dar pie a que los alumnos se percaten de la inexactitud semántica entre las lenguas que emplean, lo cual...

Resumen:

El objetivo de este artículo es compartir una experiencia didáctica diseñada para trabajar el componente sociocultural y afectivo en contextos de inmersión para el aprendizaje de español como lengua extranjera. La razón: la necesidad de facilitar el proceso de adaptación del estudiante recién llegado a un contexto de inmersión en lengua y cultura española. Esta propuesta ofrece, en primer lugar, informaciones básicas de la ciudad (Valencia - barrio del Carmen), para que pueda orientarse por su zona de residencia durante el curso y se trabaje el componente sociocultural. En segundo lugar, favorece la comunicación con hablantes nativos, de modo que pueda poner en práctica sus conocimientos...

Vision enhancement and language learning: A critical analysis of vision-building in an English for Academic Purposes programme

Denny Vlaeva, Zoltán Dörnyei (2021)

Detalles Cerrar ✕

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: motivación

Resumen:

Future second language (L2) self-images have proven integral to L2 motivation, prompting several attempts to purposefully develop learners’ ideal L2 selves over the past decade through the use of vision-building techniques. Some of these ‘vision interventions’ have reported successfully enhancing learners’ L2 self-images and motivation; other studies, however, diverge from an unqualified success narrative, citing for example a lack of increase in learner effort despite stronger future vision. Data collection has also been typically restricted to the period of the intervention itself, and so insight into the long-term take-up of the introduced techniques, or how potential outcomes develop over time, remains limited. To gain further understanding into such issues, we have charted the evolving nature of the L2 vision intervention over...

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: gamificación

Resumen:

Limited vocabulary leads to decreased performance and motivation in reading comprehension among students who learn English as a foreign language (EFL). Morphological analysis provides an effective means to problem-solve the meanings of unknown words and support reading comprehension. This study designed the non-digital gamification approach based on the five game features proposed by Richard E. Mayer to support collaborative morphological analysis. It compared the effects of a non-digital gamified and conventional morphological analysis intervention on reading outcomes and intrinsic motivation. An explanatory sequential mixed-method research design was adopted. Two classes from a secondary school in China were recruited and assigned to either the experimental group receiving the non-digital gamified programme ( N = 52) or the control...
