Although issues related to formulaicity have been under investigation in a\u0000 number of research studies (e.g. Conklin & Schmitt, 2008; Wood, 2006), the present study is different in investigating the functions of formulaic sequences in the\u0000 oral language production of young learners in the context of English as a foreign language. A class of 11 students (aged 9 to 11)\u0000 was observed and video recorded for 16 sessions (90 minutes per session). Following transcription of selected speech samples,\u0000 formulaic sequences were identified based on pre-established criteria. Analysis enabled categorisation of a range of functions for\u0000 formulaic sequences in learners’ oral language production. Results revealed evidence that formulaic sequences performed a variety\u0000 of roles in the learners’ language production. These sequences helped young language learners to improve their fluency, to\u0000 economize effort on processing and also to buy time for processing. A significant novel finding of this study was evidence that\u0000 language users might introduce dis-fluency in the production of their sequences in order to buy time for further processing.","PeriodicalId":29728,"journal":{"name":"Language Teaching for Young Learners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49335897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The context of the study, online one-to-one lessons, is commonplace but largely unresearched. Transcripts from seventeen teacher-student dyads using four tasks were analysed using conversation analysis. These were then coded and the number of instances of meaningful communication counted. The number of instances of pushed output and negotiation of meaning were also noted. The most successful task was an open opinion-gap task, which motivated the young learners. Crucially, the task outcome (a plan of a shopping centre) allowed learners to check their teachers had understood them. Teacher misunderstandings gave learners opportunities to take control of the discourse and negotiate meaning. Aspects of task design which impeded meaningful communication included sentence stems, which resulted in drill-like interactions. Task topics familiar to learners but unfamiliar to teachers hindered meaningful communication. Also, tasks located near the end of a lesson sequence tended to result in less meaningful communication than those nearer the start.","PeriodicalId":29728,"journal":{"name":"Language Teaching for Young Learners","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"58996229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From a plurilingual perspective, AL learners’ first language (L1) is conceputalised as a useful tool in the development of\u0000 target language proficiency; however, limited information exists concerning AL teachers’ beliefs towards the use of the L1 for\u0000 high-level literacy instruction despite its potential utility for complex skill development. The aim of the present exploratory\u0000 study was to examine the beliefs of in-service teachers of English as an additional language (EAL) working in the Quebec primary\u0000 and secondary school system in francophone Canada regarding plurilingual approaches for classroom literacy practices and to\u0000 uncover the factors that influence their beliefs. An online survey was distributed to in-service EAL teachers\u0000 (N = 57) working in the province of Quebec, Canada. Findings suggest that teachers believe that it is most\u0000 beneficial to adopt a monolingual lens to literacy instruction, a belief that denies learners’ use of their L1 and this, in a\u0000 bilingual country. Implications for teacher education programs that challenge a monolingual lens are explored.","PeriodicalId":29728,"journal":{"name":"Language Teaching for Young Learners","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48010771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, non-specialists, such as homeroom teachers initially trained as generalists, are more often required to teach English. The present study, focusing on 304 non-specialist teachers serving in Japan’s public primary schools, was designed to explore their perceived self-efficacy for teaching English, and to examine the impact of teacher characteristics (i.e., their perceived English proficiency, English-teaching experience, and appraisals of collaboration with native English-speaking teachers) on their level of self-efficacy. A multiple regression analysis revealed that the collaboration variable was more influential than the proficiency variable and that there was no significant relationship between teachers’ self-efficacy and teaching experience. Moreover, integration of these results and teachers’ comments in the open-ended question suggested that they functioned most effectively in student engagement by playing roles unique to non-specialist teachers and that they perceived team teaching to be more beneficial in classroom management than solo teaching. Implications for in-service training are discussed to support non-specialist teachers in primary English education.","PeriodicalId":29728,"journal":{"name":"Language Teaching for Young Learners","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"58996293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
