Domain-specific research methods in instructed second language acquisition
Instructed second language acquisition (ISLA) is one of the fastest growing areas of applied linguistics. With this tremendous potential comes great responsibility for robust, ethical, and transparent research methods that are responsive to and tailored for the ISLA domain. This article highlights unique characteristics of ISLA research, provides a current landscape of methodological trends within ISLA, and makes specific recommendations for rese…
Teachers’ Perspectives on Second Language Task Difficulty
The majority of empirical studies that have so far investigated task features in order to inform task grading and sequencing decisions have been grounded in hypothesis-testing research. Few studies have attempted to adopt a bottom-up approach in order to explore what task factors might contribute to task difficulty. The aim of this study was to help fill this gap by eliciting teachers’ perspectives on sources of task difficulty. We asked 16 Engli…
Comparing Interaction and Use of Space in Traditional and Innovative Classrooms
Despite myriad changes to language teaching methods over time, university-level classroom spaces have largely remained the same—until now. Recent innovations in classroom space design center on technological advances, include movable furniture and coffee-shop style rooms, and are believed to facilitate language learning in several ways. Specifically, compared to traditional classrooms, innovative spaces are designed in the hope of decreasing pre-…
