This system had initially three languages in education before Swahili was added in 2006. Since 2013, Burundi has a new educational system with four languages in education. This paper aimed to discuss the so called old education system of Burundi as far as languages in education are concerned. It explores issues related to the Burundian old multilingual educational system. Content materials designed by policy makers for languages of instruction and languages taught as subjects have provided substance for the discussion. Furthermore, documents including language education policy documents, content materials and the existing literature were consulted and analysed through content analysis methods. The way the languages were presented and introduced to learners through the content materials was discussed to understand underlying policy makers’ philosophy about how multilingual education should be carried out to achieve expected multilingual competence in the languages involved. It was realised that the system privileged separation of languages to avoid language transfer in order to achieve expected language competence. Crosslinguistic Transfer (interference) was considered to be a hindrance to language competence development and it was to be avoided both through the content materials and the teaching methods during classroom practices.","PeriodicalId":136675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Multilingualism and Applied Linguistics","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132685294","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}

There are many ways that could be done in learning vocabulary, one of which is by using media. The media used should be able to facilitate students to learn and seize the vocabulary easily, yet enjoyable. Regardless, students may experience their own difficulties in the learning process. The present study focuses on difficulties confronted by foster students in learning English vocabulary through animated videos. Ten foster students of Al-Husna Orphanage, Bandar Lampung were interviewed to discover the difficulties they experienced during the process of learning English vocabulary by using animated videos. A semi-structured interview was employed to investigate the difficulties by developing several questions. The interview data were then analysed descriptively using a qualitative approach to get answers to the research question. It was revealed that the students encountered some difficulties, i.e., mispronunciation, misspelling, difficulties in understanding English words caused by the speakers’ speed; also, the students admitted that there was a lack of exposure to English.","PeriodicalId":136675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Multilingualism and Applied Linguistics","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134229656","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}
