A year-long longitudinal narrative inquiry was conducted with 18 adolescents on their English learning motivation in Hong Kong. Three rounds of individual interviews with each adolescent, their English writing and reflective drawing were analysed. Interviews with their parents and tutors were conducted, and tutorials were observed where possible.

To produce high-quality translations, translators have to possess not only language proficiencies but also cognitive skills with critical thinking being a core one since translation involves problem-solving and decision-making activities. Critical thinking, a high-order thinking, has been regarded as essential for translators to thoroughly understand and analyze source texts involving linguistic and cultural differences and produce translation outputs with appropriate expressions by way of effectively and critically dealing with information. It plays a vital role in developing translators’ or translation learners’ translation competence, a crucial skill for language learners. Thus, due attention should be paid to critical thinking development in language education. Despite its recognized importance, however, critical thinking cultivation has not been properly incorporated into EFL translation teaching for non-English major undergraduates that mainly focuses on imparting or training language knowledge or techniques in EFL contexts. Little is known about whether integrating critical thinking cultivation into translation instruction can bring benefits to EFL translation learners. And there is a dearth of research in this regard. Thus, this study seeks to explore the impact of the critical thinking-embedded translation instruction on EFL translation learners. 52 Chinese non-English major undergraduate EFL learners were selected as the participants and divided into the control and treatment groups. The two groups were taught under different instructional patterns over a period of 16 weeks. The results revealed the necessity of the critical thinking-embedded translation instruction and its positive impacts on EFL translation learners, contributing to the improvement of their critical thinking and translation performance.

Previous analytical frameworks primarily focused on students’ linguistic representation of NoSP/NoSM. Linguistic frameworks are limited as they can only uncover part of students’ understanding, as students might represent NoSP/NoSM through diverse modes such as drawings. An analytical framework was designed to investigate secondary students’ multimodal representations of NoSP/NoSM. To explore the utility of the analytical framework, we administered it to 40 7th grade students and examined their responses before and after engaging in explicit-reflective instruction focusing on nature of science (NOS). The approach yielded a total of 400 multimodal representations. Drawing on Lemke's (1998) three types of representational meaning, the analytical framework was used to describe and categorise collectively a wide range of ideas about scientific practices and methods across domain-general and domain-specific contexts of science. Students’ ideas changed after students engaged in NOS instruction that involved iterative compositions of multimodal representations of NoSP/NoSM.

Traditionally, the concept of epistemic dependence, which encourages public trust in professional scientists, has supported this goal. However, the current landscape of science challenges the notions of experts with unanimous opinions and ‘the public’ as passive recipients of scientific information. In response, this case study examines the LK-99 incident, which involved a claimed discovery in the historic room-temperature and ambient-pressure superconductor, employing the Hype Cycle as the analytical framework. Data were collected on internet search traffic, discourse within the scientific community, mass media articles, and social media posts from July to December 2023, utilizing various online data analytics platforms. The researchers (1) quantitatively identified patterns in search trends, document sentiments, and associated word tokens related to LK-99, (2) qualitatively analyzed the shifting standpoints of stakeholders, the scientific community, mass media, and social media, and (3) synthesized these findings within the Hype Cycle framework. The results illustrate how the misinformation about LK-99 rapidly spread online (phase 1), leading to disagreements among scientists and confusion among the public, alongside erratic behavior in the stock market (phase 2). Ironically, the stakeholders' positioning themselves as scientists facilitated the scientific community's falsification of the claim (phase 3).
