  • Exploring the potential of brief peer review training in enhancing student feedback literacy

    Deliang Man, Meng Huat Chau et al.ARTICLEIRAL - International Review of…2026

    Despite its popularity as a recommended practice in the literature of writing instruction, peer review training seems to be more of an idea promoted than a common practice in the classroom. The reason is obvious: review training often requires considerable time and effort from the instructor and students. This study seeks to examine whether and to what extent a review training intervention as brief as two hours promotes student feedback literacy,…

  • Exploring Identity for Social Justice

    Open AccessYong Ern Amy Leow, Meng Huat Chau et al.ARTICLELanguages2025References: 97

    While it has been pointed out that identity is complex, unfixed and intersectional in nature, many studies tend to be restricted by their very conceptualisation of identity, which projects a sense of purism and essentialism rooted in Global North epistemologies. In this article, we consider the concept of (diasporic) identity and discuss how labels and categories of identity often prescribed to a community can and should be deconstructed for soci…

  • Exploring the role of English in meritocracy in multilingual Indonesia

    Anita Lie, Meng Huat Chau et al.ARTICLEJournal of Multilingual and…2024References: 35

    English features prominently in global communication as part of the knowledge economy in Indonesia and worldwide. Meritocracy represents a key concept within the rhetoric of this economy, as it promises that how well people do in life is not determined by external matters, but mostly by how hard they try. Included here is how hard they study English, and how well they perform on measures of English proficiency. No previous research has, however, …

    Open AccessMeng Huat Chau, George M JacobsARTICLEInternational Journal of Applied…2021

    To promote a more open and more self‐aware Applied Linguistics, we can consider how the many current and developing initiatives and resources in the field can be instruments for achieving a better world. For instance, applied linguists have examined such issues as inclusiveness (e.g., avoiding generic he ) and the interface between language and environmental destruction. The purpose of this article, based on the same spirit of inclusiveness and a…

    Deliang Man, Aiping Mo et al.ARTICLEPerspectives2019Cited by: 1References: 7

    The ability to use translation technology is considered a key component of a translator’s translation competence.

This paper reports on a survey of translation technology adoption among 441 students enrolled on a Master-level Programme in Translation and Interpreting. A questionnaire was used to measure student knowledge and f…
