Between silence and speaking
Global competence-oriented English as a foreign language (EFL) education in Asia increasingly emphasizes communicative participation in English, yet classroom silence continues to characterize university EFL classes. This study examines data collected from a focus group, questionnaire and Delphi study to explore Japanese university students’ perceptions of willingness to communicate (WTC) in relation to EFL education and global competence.

Physical‐Digital Interfaces in Informal Language Learning
With the growing recreational use of digital media technology, informal language learning occurs more frequently within individuals’ everyday lives. However, the interplay between digital and physical spaces in informal language learning remains underexplored. By bringing together ecological and spatial perspectives on language learning to investigate this interplay, this study explores how individuals’ physical activities influence their use of …
Global Competence and Foreign Language Education in Japan
The pursuit of global competence (GC) is heavily promoted as part of university education in Japan, where the government exhorts universities to equip graduates with skills that will enable them to function as global citizens. Foreign language (FL) educators are often expected to cultivate these globally competent individuals. However, there is little consensus on what GC actually is, and limited evidence that existing models of GC are actually a…
Cross-platform language learning
In the current reality of digital activity, individuals often explore more than one digital platform for language learning. Despite increasing research on the uses of digital platforms for language learning in informal contexts, the cross-platform experience remains in need of elucidation. Drawing on spatial perspectives on digital technology and language learning to conceptualize digital platforms as digital spaces, this study examines the cross…
Versifying adversity
Where's the vision? Rescuing integrativeness to understand the language learning motivation of English-speaking EFL instructors living in South Korea
Ebbs and Flows
Native English speaking language teachers who live and work in various parts of the world often express a desire to learn the language of their host country. Without sustained levels of motivation, however, their desires are unlikely to be realized. This article reports the findings of a longitudinal case study of an American English language instructor working at a South Korean university. It examines the factors that impacted her motivation to …
Transformations in the L2 self
I’m never going to be part of it’
This study investigated the willingness of 14 English-speaking EFL instructors living and working in South Korea to invest in practices connected with learning and using the Korean language. A model of investment for the ‘new world order’ (Darvin, R., and B. Norton. 2015. “Identity and a Model of Investment in Applied Linguistics.” Annual Review of Applied Linguistics 35: 36–56. doi:10.1017/S0267190514000191) was used as a theoretical lens throug…
Tracing the discursive development of rapport in intercultural nurse–patient interactions
Good rapport underpins effective patient care; however, communication barriers can undermine the building of rapport and the development of a therapeutic relationship, potentially resulting in poorer health outcomes. This paper examines the development of rapport by registered nurses (RNs) from a variety of cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Discourse analytical techniques are used to trace rapport‐building in naturally occurring interactions t…
Trust, talk and the dictaphone
Using discourse analytical methods, this article examines the interactional accomplishment of trust. Focusing on a case study drawn from a corpus of 28 surgical consultations collected in a gastro-intestinal clinic, it traces the trust-building process in a specific, communicatively challenging encounter where the patient is seeking a second opinion following an operation that she deems unsuccessful. Discourse analytical findings make visible the…
Assessment and management of aphasia in a linguistically diverse society
This paper reports the results of a survey conducted in metropolitan Sydney, Australia, which was designed to look at the assessment and treatment practices adopted by speech-language pathologists when working with individuals with aphasia from language backgrounds other than English. The results of the survey high-light a number of areas of concern for speech-language pathologists. These include the need for a range of appropriate assessment and…
