multilingüismo

Tradicionalmente se ha prestado escasa atención a la adquisición de las unidades fraseológicas (UF) en general, y de las paremias en particular, en las propuestas didácticas y en los manuales de lengua española y de otras lenguas extranjeras (LE). Por ello, el tratamiento que reciben la fraseología y la paremiología en la enseñanza y aprendizaje de (E/A de LE) continúa representando un desafío para investigadores y docentes, principalmente en lo que se refiere a estrategias metodológicas enfocadas a la didáctica de estas disciplinas en el aula de LE. El estudio de las UF en la E/A de LE se ha convertido en un campo propio denominado fraseodidáctica, campo emergente dentro del ...

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: actitudes lingüísticas

Resumen:

In this study we investigate the sources of individual differences in the language attitudes of 125 students enrolled in a language school in La Coruña (Galicia). Attitudes towards Galician, Spanish, English and French were found to be linked to self-perceived proficiency in all languages except Spanish. The type of upbringing (monolingual or bilingual) was found to affect attitudes towards Galician and Spanish. Age of onset of learning had an effect only on attitudes towards Galician. Exposure to foreign languages through television corresponded with more favourable attitudes towards these languages. Visits to the foreign country had a similar effect on attitudes towards English but...

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: migración y acogida

Resumen:

Los niños y niñas que llegan a un nuevo país cuya lengua local desconocen tienen derecho a un apoyo lingüístico y cultural para facilitar su adaptación y garantizar su bienestar. La presente intervención la formulamos como un estudio de caso de una familia rusa que se mudó a Buenos Aires, Argentina ante el estallido de la guerra ruso-ucraniana. El estudio, cualitativo y longitudinal, se prolongó a lo largo de dos años. Analizamos los procesos de adquisición del español del hermano mayor y de la hermana menor de la misma familia, puesto que ambos transitaron caminos diferentes en dicha adquisición. El niño empezó a estudiar español antes de llegar al país de acogida y la niña...

Exploring learner engagement with languages (LX) within and beyond the English classroom

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: multilingüismo

Resumen:

Given the complex language repertoire of a large number of students within Austrian schools, particularly in lower secondary schools, it would be critically important to understand their practices, attitudes, and beliefs towards the multiple languages they encounter in their different areas of life. In this study I redefine and expand on the construct of engagement with language to incorporate an investigation of the different languages (hereafter LX) that learners come into contact with in and outside of school. I propose the construct of ‘engagement with LX’ to depict how learners utilize, reflect on, and relate to the LX in their repertoires in all contexts of their lives, including English as...

Language teacher cognition on mobilizing learners’ multilingual resources: A case study from a content and language integrated classroom in Australia

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: AICLE/CLIL

Resumen:

Strategic use of learners’ multilingual resources in a content and language integrated learning (CLIL) classroom enables learners to employ all of their linguistic repertoires to make sense of what they learn to construct and demonstrate new content and language understanding and skills. This study examines a CLIL teacher’s cognition – what they know, believe, think, and do – on allowing multilingual practices among learners with limited foreign language proficiency. An in-depth analysis of the qualitative data collected from a Japanese/Humanities CLIL teacher working in an Australian secondary school revealed two key findings. Namely, this study identified: (1) the influence of complex...

Monolingual versus multilingual foreign language teaching: French and Arabic at beginning levels

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: uso de la L1 en el aula

Resumen:

Macaro has stated that the choice between a monolingual, immersive, target language-only pedagogy versus a non-immersive, multilingual pedagogy is ‘probably the most fundamental question facing second language acquisition (SLA) researchers, language teachers, and policymakers’. Recognizing that prior empirical work on monolingual versus multilingual approaches has primarily been (1) descriptive, (2) in the context of English as a second or foreign language, and (3) very short term, often with one brief treatment, this intervention study examines the effectiveness of use of the L1/non-target language in the L2 classroom in a quasi-experimental, 10-week study examining French, a commonly learned foreign language, and Arabic, a less commonly learned foreign language, at beginning levels of proficiency in a community-based setting with 25...

Vocabulary card learning: Testing multilingual translations and increased semantic processing

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: enseñanza/aprendizaje de vocabulario

Resumen:

Vocabulary card learning stands out as one of the most efficient methods for memorizing a large number of words in a short period of time. Multilinguals have the possibility to use their multilingual repertoire to their advantage when learning new words, for example in the acquisition of formally overlapping words. This study aims to answer the as-yet unexplored question of whether the use of bilingual translations in vocabulary cards can provide advantages for multilinguals when learning vocabulary even in a linguistically distant language. Furthermore, predictions based on the ‘type of processing – resource allocation’ (TOPRA) model regarding trade-offs through semantic processing are taken...

El español hablado en Valencia. Interferencia lingüística y enseñanza de la lengua

Foro de profesores de ELE

Detalles Cerrar ✕

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: propuesta didáctica

Temas: variación y variedades del español

Resumen:

Todas las lenguas muestran variación, tanto desde el punto de vista geográfico como social, y su aprendizaje siempre se produce a través de una de sus variedades geográficas. Hay zonas en que el español convive con otras lenguas, y esto le da una serie de características especiales que el profesor de español como lengua extranjera debe conocer y explicar a sus alumnos. En este trabajo, analizamos algunas interferencias lingüísticas que se producen entre español y valenciano, variedad del catalán que se habla en Valencia, y proponemos algunas actividades didácticas para su aprovechamiento en las clases de ELE.

Exploring the differential effects of growth mindset on bilingual learning engagement: A concurrent embedded mixed-methods study

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: enseñanza/aprendizaje de lenguas

Resumen:

Although the positive relationship between growth language mindsets and engagement has been consistently supported in previous empirical studies, the literature is dominated by quantitative approaches in the English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) contexts, neglecting the triangulation of qualitative data delving into how learners perceive the contribution of growth mindsets to engagement. Such neglect is especially notable among multilingual learners. Further, it remains unknown which dimensions of growth language mindset were the most influential for specific dimensions of engagement and whether the pattern was different for English learning and language other than English (LOTE) learning. To fill the gaps, the current study adopted a concurrent embedded mixed-methods approach with questionnaires and interviews. A total of 464 Chinese...

Developing crosslinguistic awareness through plurilingual consciousness-raising tasks

Tipo: artículo

Metodología: estudio empírico

Temas: español como lengua extranjera

Resumen:

If maximal exposure were the key to success in language learning, then adult learners at the university level would be doomed to fail. Not only are they presumably too old to learn additional languages effectively, but target language (TL) input appears to be insufficient, especially when other languages are allowed in class. Nevertheless, learners were shown to build on knowledge of previously acquired languages, to rely on language learning experience and to develop metalinguistic awareness. This study explores the perceived usefulness of a plurilingual consciousness-raising task that aims at helping learners make and strengthen connections between the TL and other previously acquired languages. Two university-level language courses were targeted: Spanish in Quebec and French in Mexico. Two customized tasks were implemented and...
