This study uses an immersive\u0000 theme-based environment and focuses on cross-cultural interactions between\u0000 learners of different cultures in goal-oriented scenarios. We collected\u0000 interactions among learners with different cultural backgrounds and\u0000 annotated common ground formation and conversation breakdowns in those\u0000 interactions. Next, we recreated the scenarios in a 3D immersive environment\u0000 using an in-house situation creation toolkit to enable experiencing the\u0000 situation by using choices to navigate the conversation and observing the\u0000 consequences. In case the conversation derails, we provide timely\u0000 scaffolding by offering appropriate communication strategies to rebuild\u0000 common ground. Learners can be the actors of the scenarios but can also be\u0000 the observers by switching between roles and points of view. Preliminary\u0000 experiments with 20 L2 learners of English from different cultures showed\u0000 that practicing with immersive conversational game-play is effective for\u0000 raising cultural awareness and learning to choose appropriate strategies for\u0000 smooth interactions.","PeriodicalId":350173,"journal":{"name":"CALL and professionalisation: short papers from EUROCALL 2021","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124261906","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}

All published Research Articles (RAs) from four major CALL journals\u0000 – ReCALL, CALL, Language Learning & Technology (LL&T) and CALICO\u0000 Journal – from the very first issues to the end of 2019 were downloaded,\u0000 sorted, and checked to form the final corpus of 426 highly cited RAs. The\u0000 trends and themes (research contexts, research participants, and theoretical\u0000 and methodological considerations of the RAs) were all recorded to see how\u0000 CALL has evolved over time. Primary findings indicate that empirical studies\u0000 where learners are physically or virtually involved in the process of\u0000 technology-mediated language instruction dominate the field of CALL\u0000 research. Authors resort to both quantitative and qualitative methodologies\u0000 for data collection and analysis, though mixed-methods has gained more\u0000 weight in the past two decades. Sociocultural theory stands over and above\u0000 other theories in Second Language Acquisition (SLA) to frame CALL studies.\u0000 The paper discusses these issues, and problems detected.","PeriodicalId":350173,"journal":{"name":"CALL and professionalisation: short papers from EUROCALL 2021","volume":"219 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132562314","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}

The\u0000 target sounds were English fricatives, which many of the participants felt\u0000 were challenging to distinguish and articulate. The training was conducted\u0000 for five weeks; each week consisted of three HVPT sessions. The training\u0000 process consisted of an initial explanation of how to articulate the sounds\u0000 followed by a video that showed the physical articulative movements. The\u0000 participants listened to stimuli sounds, produced the sounds after each\u0000 stimulus, and completed an identification task. Based on pre and posttests,\u0000 the perception performance of the participants improved significantly\u0000 through the HVPT training. Regarding production, a positive effect was found\u0000 for one phoneme, while no difference was found for the other. Questionnaire\u0000 results were generally positive but indicated the need for explicit\u0000 instruction for some of the fricatives that exhibited relatively lower\u0000 successful production and perception rates.","PeriodicalId":350173,"journal":{"name":"CALL and professionalisation: short papers from EUROCALL 2021","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117179785","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}

The introduction of\u0000 information and communications technology has presented new training\u0000 platforms to respond to the needs of the workforce. While traditional\u0000 institutions have greatly impacted teachers, there are now other viable\u0000 outlets through which many of the required 21st century skills, such as\u0000 professionalism, can be satisfied. Our project OFLEBO is one such example,\u0000 an online training tool targeting the teaching of oral skills for in-service\u0000 teachers of the French language in Botswana. This area was chosen because of\u0000 the teachers’ admission on finding teaching oral skills a challenging task.\u0000 This paper therefore aims to study the professionalisation of teachers\u0000 through the OFLEBO project. Professionalisation as a process is continuous,\u0000 and practice is its focus, therefore the aim is to inspire the evolution of\u0000 classroom practices concerning the teaching of oral skills.","PeriodicalId":350173,"journal":{"name":"CALL and professionalisation: short papers from EUROCALL 2021","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126284908","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}
