This research explored the role of SDL aptitude within a selected Chinese university, analyzing its relationship with student engagement and academic performance. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the study found a significant positive correlation between SDL aptitude and both academic outcomes and engagement levels. Furthermore, qualitative findings emphasized the influence of cultural contexts, particularly Confucian learning traditions, in shaping SDL practices. While the results advocate for the enhancement of SDL-oriented environments in higher education, the study's focus on a singular institution underlines the need for caution in broader application. The insights herein provide a foundation for understanding the intricacies of SDL in specific cultural and educational settings.","PeriodicalId":133235,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Humanities","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139288440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Before conducting employee training, Microsoft first investigates the specifics of the company and the actual problems that employees need to solve in their jobs. Microsoft uses the 70-20-10 principle and a new employee training program consisting of a television series and games. The paper also analyses the problem of knowledge concealment in the employee training process, particularly in the context of Microsoft's mentorship system. Microsoft's employee training system is in line with relevant theories and models, and these practices have contributed greatly to Microsoft's growth. However, with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the increasing number of business activities requires fast and effective training methods. Microsoft needs to consider a training program with a short payback period and use digital technology to mimic real-life data in real-time. This article presents a selection of Microsoft's past employee training practices, analyses them by using relevant theory and makes recommendations for current and potential future issues.","PeriodicalId":133235,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Humanities","volume":"12 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139287939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, the application of ChatGPT also poses potential risks, such as weakening learning autonomy, alienating teaching subject relationships, damaging academic integrity, triggering knowledge security risks, ethical risks, and ideological risks. In order to address challenges and fully leverage the potential of ChatGPT in translation teaching, it is necessary to innovate teaching models, reform teaching processes, enhance students’ self-learning abilities, strengthen translation ethics education and ideological risk education, and enhance the digital literacy of teachers and students.

Based on the relevant theories of second language acquisition, the interviews and observation records were qualitatively analysed, and the characteristics of Chinese international students' implementation of language learning strategies in a multilingual environment and the related influences were explored. The findings suggest that language learning strategy behaviour is a dynamic process of continuous interaction between the learning context and individual learners, reflecting individual variability and uncertainty. International students need to weigh the relationship between Portuguese and English learning strategies, and to complement each other's strengths in order to improve their learning strategies. Students who come to study in Macau should make full use of the multilingual environment in order to obtain the positive effects of this environment.","PeriodicalId":133235,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Humanities","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139288064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
