A survey was conducted with 255 elementary school teachers, and in-depth interviews were also conducted with 8 participants. The data were quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed. The findings are as follows: (1) Teachers tend to prioritize spoken language over written language in teaching English for 3rd and 4th graders. (2) They reported using textbooks extensively in teaching written English, but they revealed difficulties teaching different levels of students in the classroom. (3) Teachers’ schooling, teacher education, and classroom teaching experiences influenced their perceptions and instructional practices of teaching reading and writing. In particular, the context-dependent and discontinuous nature of elementary teachers’ English instruction and the lack of professional development opportunities hindered teacher development in written language instruction. In order to develop English learners’ literacy skills emphasized in the revised national curriculum, it is necessary to support English teachers in raising their awareness of teaching written language and enhancing their expertise in written English instruction. Further important implications regarding teaching English literacy skills and English teachers’ professional development are discussed.","PeriodicalId":36216,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of English Language and Linguistics","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135440103","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}

Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of meaning-focused and form-focused (both non-contrastive and contrastive) tasks on the vocabulary learning of low and intermediate-level students in Korean college settings. The results revealed that the meaning-focused group demonstrated vocabulary learning gains only in the posttest, whereas both form-focused tasks resulted in significant improvement in both the posttest and delayed test. This suggests that students derived greater benefits from the form-focused tasks compared to the meaning-focused task in terms of L2 vocabulary learning. Additionally, the low proficiency group benefitted more from the non-contrastive form-focused task, while the intermediate group benefitted more from the contrastive form-focused task. The study will delve into the theoretical implications and discuss the pedagogical implications arising from these findings.","PeriodicalId":36216,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of English Language and Linguistics","volume":"195 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135440121","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}

Drawing from a vast corpus of user comments, the research revealed significant differences in public sentiments and narratives, a phenomenon distinctly modulated by the individual characteristics of each platform and varying degrees of user anonymity: Naver, offering the highest level of user anonymity, resulted in a lot of critical comments towards the virtual influencer, while YouTube centered more on technological discourse and Instagram gathered positive engagements. Additionally, this study showcased the development of an English wordlist by utilizing Python libraries for collecting corpus data from platforms such as Google News, YouTube, and Quora, which can be useful sources for learners in CLIL classrooms, fostering deeper engagement with the emergent influencer culture. It emphasized the necessity of a nuanced approach in data collection and analysis, recognizing the distinct characteristics of each platform and the content they host, thereby contributing significantly to CLIL pedagogy through the creation of an English wordlist developed from authentic materials, fostering enhanced learner engagement.","PeriodicalId":36216,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of English Language and Linguistics","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135440380","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}

This encompasses a comprehensive understanding of students' English learning experiences by implementing this framework over a six-week period, embedded into a college English class. The study involved a total of 20 students divided into four groups. Data from five sources, including 16 post-questionnaires, 16 reflection notes, 4 sets of group journals, 4 sets of group Social Network Service (SNS) communications, and 13 interviews, were analyzed. The findings of the study revealed that students had positive English learning experiences in various aspects: Constructing knowledge related to project topics and the English language; promoting reflective thinking; engaging in playful learning; and recognizing the teacher's role as a facilitator. On the other hand, students also reported negative learning experiences: Overreliance on ChatGPT and Google Bard, leading to reduced discussions; initial learning anxiety due to unfamiliarity with prompt literacy and critical thinking-based tasks; and technical limitations associated with ChatGPT. Some pedagogical implications include the collaborative development of prompt literacy guidelines with learners; the active utilization of English outputs generated by ChatGPT and Google Bard as valuable language learning resources within language learning models; and the collaborative establishment of guidelines with learners for the appropriate use of ChatGPT and Google Bard.","PeriodicalId":36216,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of English Language and Linguistics","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135440381","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}

Four classes of fifth-year elementary school students (n = 65) were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups or one control group. Three tests were utilized to measure the learning effects and generalizability of the learned knowledge (a video clip selection task, an argument selection task, and a sentence selection task), immediately after the treatment and again one week later. Additionally, two aptitude measures were administered to assess the students’ language analytic ability and working memory capacity. The results showed that only the group exposed to a skewed first distribution retained the learned knowledge until the delayed posttest session. In terms of the aptitude measures, only working memory performance weakly correlated with the posttest comprehension scores. These findings suggest that English teachers could enhance the learning of grammatical rules by providing students with appropriate input that optimizes some important features such as frequency, input distribution, and students’ aptitude.","PeriodicalId":36216,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of English Language and Linguistics","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135440378","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}
