Exploring Demotivation in Second Language Classrooms: A Literature Review of Teacher and Student Variables
Authors: Ojong Akem Solange
Published: June 2024

Recent research in second language acquisition has seen a surge in interest concerning the phenomenon of students’ demotivation. Using a literature review, this paper explores the concept of L2 demotivation as the combined effects of internal and external factors that diminish a learner's drive to engage with the target language. It delves into the significant influences contributing to L2 demotivation, focusing on teachers' and students’ variables. Teachers’ variables encompass inappropriate teaching styles, attitudes, and low teaching quality, alongside instances of teachers’ demotivation, all identified as pivotal contributors to students’ demotivation by numerous studies. Additionally, students’ demotivation can stem from intrinsic issues such as low self-esteem or diminished self-worth. The paper concludes by suggesting pedagogical implications, such as the need for teacher training programs that emphasize motivational strategies and fostering positive attitudes towards language learning. Furthermore, it advocates for developing learner-centered approaches that address individual learner needs and provide opportunities for autonomy and self-expression in the language learning process, learning goals setting, task design, providing constructive feedback, inclusive classroom, cultural awareness, and leveraging technology in language learning. Lastly, the paper calls for further research into demotivation in second language learning to inform more effective pedagogical practices and interventions.

Authors: Zaki Muhammad Zayyanu , Ahmed Umar
Published: June 2024

Language diversity presents challenges to effective communication in an interconnected world, necessitating solutions to bridge linguistic divides and foster equitable access to information. The rise of AI-powered translation systems offers promise in addressing these challenges by leveraging advanced algorithms and neural networks to automate language translation. However, concerns arise regarding their impact on communication dynamics and cultural preservation. This paper examines the multifaceted impacts of AI-powered translation systems on communication equity and inclusion, drawing on interdisciplinary insights. It explores the historical evolution of AI translation technologies, their operational functionalities, and the challenges they face in accommodating linguistic minorities and addressing biases. Strategies to enhance AI adaptability, such as text-guided domain adaptation and human-AI collaboration, are discussed, along with recommendations for policymakers, developers, and practitioners to promote inclusive communication practices. Despite significant progress, challenges remain, including accuracy, bias, and ethical considerations. Future research should focus on developing robust translation models for low-resource languages, mitigating biases, and enhancing usability for diverse communication needs.
Examining the Efficiency of Machine Translation in Translating English Idioms used in American Media
Authors: Benyahia Moad
Published: June 2024

The use of idioms permeates the American media, be it movies, series, TV sitcoms, chat shows, radio chats, documentaries and so forth. By definition, idioms are fixed expressions whose meaning cannot be inferred merely from the meanings of the words that compose it. With this in mind, translators face a tremendous challenge when attempting to translate American media to another language, whether that was done through dubbing or via the use of subtitles. Nevertheless, today’s available resources can provide an appreciable assistance regarding such challenges. Among these resources are online machine translation services, particularly the ones that are based on machine learning and artificial intelligence. The central aim of this study was to explore the efficiency of online machine translation services in translating idioms used in American media. To attain this aim, three of the most reliable online machine translation services were examined to determine their level of accuracy concerning idioms translation: Google Translate, DeepL Translator, and Bing Microsoft Translator. The results have indicated that machine translation is capable of translating idioms with an average accuracy rate of 68.7%, with Bing Microsoft Translator being the most accurate. In most cases, the translation is done by paraphrasing. However, Bing Microsoft Translator sometimes opts for using idioms in the target language that are similar in terms of meaning to the ones in the source language, which reveals new horizons for the development of high-tech online machine translation services that would be able to accurately and meaningfully translate cultural-specific lexis such as idioms.

Authors: EL MADANI EL MEHDI , LAROUZ MOHAMMED , FAGROUD MUSTAPHA , M'RABTI MOUNYA , MOUASSINE FATIMAZAHRAE
Published: June 2024

There has been growing interest in the intersection of language learning and metacognition. A considerable body of research now indicates that understanding one's own language abilities and knowing effective learning strategies is crucial for language learning success. In fact, metacognitive awareness of EFL learning strategies enables learners to monitor, control, and enhance their learning processes. Conversely, a lack of such awareness poses significant obstacles to the learning process. To address this gap, this study strives to explore the nexus between EFL university students’ listening proficiency in English and their metacognitive awareness of listening strategies. Data was gathered from 94 third-year university students majoring in English studies at a school of Arts and Humanities in Meknes. Analysis of the data involved Pearson product-moment correlation and Simple Linear Regression techniques. The results revealed that there is no correlation between students’ English listening comprehension and their listening metacognitive awareness. This was reflected in the fact that the r-value equaled -0.04, which is very close to zero.  These findings contribute significantly to both theoretical understanding and practical application in the field of metacognition and language learning. They also offer valuable insights and recommendations for language educators, curriculum developers, English studies departments in higher education, and future research directions.

And the problems and proposing appropriate solutions to them, as the problem in the municipality of Al-Ghadir is evident in its accumulation, as the effort exerted by the municipal administration does not equal the average volume of solid waste disposed compared to the number of workers and mechanisms designated for removing and removing waste, in addition to the indifference of the study community and their indifference to this matter and the accumulation of waste as well. Its quantity increases in thickness and breadth over time, and it accumulates along the streets, alleys, and public places, which offends public taste and causes visual pollution, which is determined by waste and the extent of its aesthetic, health, and visual effects. It is not limited to this matter only, but goes beyond it by affecting all aspects. Keywords: solid waste, environmental impacts, urban cities, Al-Ghadir Municipality.

The current research aims to identify How familiar the middle school students are with the skills of generative thinking. This goal is achieved by answering the following question :- To what extent do intermediate school students know the skills of generative thinking ? Where the two researchers prepared a test for generative thinking skills to know the extent of the intermediate school students’ mastery of generative thinking skills. Multiple, then the test was applied to the research sample consisting of (380) male and female students from the third grade average in the second semester of the academic year (2021-2022) as they had acquired information from the previous school stages who were randomly selected from the schools affiliated to the governorate center. By formulating the null hypothesis (there are no statistically significant differences at the level of significance (0.05) between the average scores of the test of generative thinking skills among third-grade students, the average and the hypothetical mean of the test) and the results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the average scores of students’ answers in the thinking skills test. Generative and the hypothetical mean of the generative thinking test and in favor of the hypothetical mean, thus rejecting the null hypothesis and accepting the alternative hypothesis, and this I mean, there is knowledge for third-grade intermediate students in the test of generative thinking skills .

Clavicorona angustispora, a new species from Southwestern Europe
Authors: Requejo Oscar , Castro María Luisa , Corriol Gilles , Justo Alfredo
Published: June 2024

We describe a new species of Clavicorona, C. angustispora, based on two collections from Northwestern Spain and one from Southwestern France. In the phylogenetic analyses (ITS+LSU) C. angustispora appears as sister to the type of the genus, C. taxophila. The new species differs from C. taxophila by longer, oblong to subcylindrical basidios- pores, often with a median constriction; growth on piles of wood and leaves of Salix atrocinerea or in mesophilous broad-leaved forests; and different ITS and LSU sequences. Our phylogenetic analyses support the rather isolated position of both Clavicorona species in relation to the other phylogenetic lineages in the Clavaria-Camarophyllop- sis-Clavicorona clade. This is only the second species of Clavicorona (as currently accepted) worldwide.
Young People's Career Roadmap: Demographic Factors Determining Emotional and Psychological Well-Being in Secondary School
Authors: Söner Osman , Kırkıç Kamil Arif

Determining secondary school students' emotional and psychological well-being and understanding the factors affecting these constructs is important due to the increasing interest in educational psychology. The study group consisted of 254 middle school students aged 10-14. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to determine the level of prediction of emotional and psychological well-being of middle school students by age and career development. In the first block of the analysis, age, and average academic achievement were taken, and it was determined that they explained 10% of the variance in emotional and psychological well-being. In the second block, career development sub-dimensions were taken, and it was seen that these sub-dimensions contributed 24% to emotional and psychological well-being. The findings obtained from the study were discussed in comparison with the studies in the literature, and suggestions were made for field workers.

The chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the project’s social and theoretical underpinnings, emphasizing the role of interculturality in language education and the influence of EU policies on diversity and inclusion. It outlines the project’s innovative approach to professional development, research methodologies, and objectives, leading to its results and outcomes. The chapter concludes with a discussion on the impact of the EUREDIE project on its target groups, offering insights into future educational practices and policies in a diversely interconnected world.
A Review of Studies between 2012-2016
Authors: Oral Yasemin
Published: June 2024

This chapter offers a comprehensive review of scholarly literature within the interculturalitylanguage education nexus from 2012 to 2016, examining a systematically selected collection of 184 articles, 13 books, and 7 chapters. The review uncovers the major themes and trends in the theoretical conceptual and methodological landscape as revealed in the reviewed literature, identifying an underlying shift from traditional, static views of culture to a dynamic, fluid, process-oriented understanding. The key theories and concepts concentrate within three broad categories, including criticality, digitalization and inclusion, reflecting the impact of globalization on educational paradigms. The reviewed literature also reveals a broadening and diversification of research methodologies over time, transitioning from primarily qualitative methods to more integrated, ethically grounded, and technologically informed mixed-methods approaches. The emergent perspectives and insights from the reviewed literature point to the need to bridge gaps in practice and theory, and enhance interculturality in a diversely interconnected educational landscape with its full complexity.
A Review of Studies Between 2017-2022
Authors: İnal Dilek
Published: June 2024

This literature review offers a critical examination of the evolution of interculturality in language education from 2017 to 2022. It examines a wide array of research, encompassing 131 articles, 24 books, and 3 book chapters, to expose the major theoretical, conceptual, and methodological developments in the field. The review shows a significant shift from traditional, essentialist views of culture to a dynamic and contextually rich understanding, underpinning the growing complexity in the conceptualization of interculturality. The major theories and concepts are studied concerning to the paradigms they relate to; namely, the constructivist paradigm, communicative competence paradigm, critical pedagogy paradigm, pluralistic paradigm, technological integration paradigm, and professional development paradigm. Notable trends include a move from theoretical frameworks to more empirical applications and critical pedagogy, with a keen focus on multilingual and transnational identities, and an increased emphasis on integrating native languages and cultures in language education.
Background to The Study

Published: June 2024

Although there still is not a consensus on a solid definition of early career researchers, it is commonly believed that ECRs have the torch at hand to shed light into the future direction of the literature. Thus, considering this vital role they play, this chapter introduces ECRs, the studies conducted on ECRs – particularly demonstrating the challenges ECRs encounter in their teaching acts, research practices and forming an identity-, the plurality and diversity of interculturality understanding together with the linguistics, cultural, methodological, and theoretical diversities in language education before diving deep into ECRs’ perceptions in the upcoming chapters. In doing so, this chapter follows a theoretical approach in portraying the literature before concluding the rationale behind this study and the significance of the current study. The content of this chapter is to serve as a background to understanding why and how the data was collected from ECRs on their perceptions of interculturality in language education within the scope of EUREDIE project.
