A Contextualized Needs Analysis of Rural Foreign Language Teachers in Southern Spain
This article analyses the professional needs of foreign language teachers in rural territories, with a primary analytical focus on teachers’ linguistic competence and how it is sustained over time. Using a mixed-methods needs analysis informed by Participatory Action Research, data were obtained from questionnaires, interviews, and classroom observations in rural Andalusia (southern Spain). The results foreground persistent challenges in maintain…

In this article a proposal is presented for a theoretical framework that could provide the structure and coherence needed for the development of effective LMOOCs (Language MOOCs) and MALL (Mobile Assisted Language Learning) apps in a systematic way that would facilitate online second language learning. The framework is argued to be appropriate for language teaching and learning since it could be used for the elaboration of online courses such as …
Uned OER Experience
Much as happened with open software, there has been a global attitude shift in the education community toward the open sharing of educational courses and resources. As the largest public distance education university in Spain, Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED) has had a clear commitment to open learning and content since its very beginnings. Its open courseware (OCW) portal was started in 2006 and has received several prizes fo…
Virtual Collaborative Experimentation
The research presented in this paper shows how lab work can be organized into three phases: prelab, lab, and postlab, all supported by a Web-based experimental portal and a set of tools, some of which are connected to real lab devices. Different online tools and simulators are used in a flexible and configurable way that can be adapted to student curricula and course needs. This scenario is based upon real cases in distance learning courses in th…

The primary author interviewed 12 women whose parents had died. Three types of turmoil (emotional, relational, and societal) emerged as the central issue for these women. The author…
