Transforming molecular diagnostics learning: The power of gamification in higher medical education
Introduction Traditional teaching models in molecular diagnostics often fail to engage students effectively, leading to superficial learning and limited development of core competencies. Methods This study evaluated the integration of gamified learning with collaborative inquiry learning to enhance student motivation and competencies improvement among 47 biotechnology undergraduates at Guilin Medical University. Participants engaged in a four-uni…
Uncovering the essence of diverse media biases from the semantic embedding space
Media bias widely exists in the articles published by news media, influencing their readers’ perceptions, and bringing prejudice or injustice to society. However, current analysis methods usually rely on human efforts or only focus on a specific type of bias, which cannot capture the varying magnitudes, connections, and dynamics of multiple biases, thus remaining insufficient to provide a deep insight into media bias. Inspired by the Cognitive Mi…
Developing standardized speech and language assessment tools in Mandarin Chinese: A context for improving reading and writing
Discussion to improve reading/writing competences of all students too often assumes ‘normal’ language development, hence it easily omits consideration of language disability and overlooks significant groups of learners – in China, potentially 70 million children and adults with speech and language therapy needs. However, little information is available about practices for language assessments in Chinese and about how language assessment tools are…
Epidemiological and Clinical Characteristics of Influenza Outbreaks Among Children in Chongqing, China
Influenza is a global serious public health threat. Seasonal influenza among children in Chongqing has been a heavy health burden. To date, few studies have examined the spatial and temporal characteristics of influenza. This research sheds new light on correlating them with influenza outbreaks with data of over 5 years (2014–2018). All cluster outbreaks among preschool and school-age children reported in Chongqing were collected through the Publ…
Recent advances of eosinophils and its correlated diseases
Eosinophils are differentiated by bone marrow multipotent progenitor cells and are further released into peripheral blood after maturation. Human eosinophils can exhibit unique multi-leaf nuclear morphology, which are filled with cytoplasmic granules that contain cytotoxicity and immune regulatory proteins. In recent years, many studies focused on the origin, differentiation and development process of eosinophils. It has been discovered that the …
Conversation for co-learning in the eikaiwa classroom
This paper discusses how the concept of co-learning and the pedagogy of vulnerability (Brantmeier, 2013) can explain shifts in participation in a language classroom. Its empirical evidence is from our investigation of interactions in an eikaiwa (English conversation) classroom in Japan where small groups of Japanese learners of English are encouraged to converse with a language teacher. Using multimodal Conversation Analysis, we found that the pa…

Translating Culture in Global Times: An Introduction
Among the many notions that have been disrupted, changed or altogether put into question by the spread of global media, global social networks, and global sources of information is the notion of ‘culture’. While twenty years ago, culture could still be defined as ‘membership in a discourse community that shares a common social space and history, and common imaginings’ (Kramsch 1998: 10), today’s mobility and the proliferation of online and offlin…
Translating Culture in Global Times: Dialogues
As a way of concluding this thematic issue, we have created a space for our contributors to read each other’s articles and to reflect on the main theme, i.e. translating culture in global times. We invited their response to four questions that we believe are not only central to the aims of the special issue, but also encourage further dialogues on the role of translation in applied linguistics and translation as mission and practice. ...

Whose Karate? Language and Cultural Learning in a Multilingual Karate Club in London
This article explores language learning as a process of translanguaging and of cultural translation. We draw examples from a sociolinguistic ethnography of translanguaging practices in a karate club in east London, UK. Formulaic Japanese is taught as part of karate techniques, practised as the language of performance and rituals and valued as the key indicator of karate expertise over other languages. Key karate verbal routines such as osu and ki…
“No, no Maama! Say ‘Shaatir ya Ouledee Shaatir ’!” Children’s agency in language use and socialisation
Aims and objectives: This paper investigates how children in multilingual and transnational families mobilise their multiple and developing linguistic repertoires creatively to assert their agency in language use and socialisation, and why these acts of agency are conducive to successful maintenance of the so-called “home”, “community” or “minority” language. Methodology: Close, qualitative analysis of mealtime multiparty conversations is carried…

Children's perceptions of the impact of participation in an intercultural educational programme
This paper examines the self-perceptions of sixteen 11-year-old UK children who took part in intercultural ‘Villages’ organised by an international children's charity. The analysis of the data shows that only a short-term increase in Intercultural Communicative Competence was reported by the children immediately after the Village. The increase was neither statistically significant, nor evident nine months after the Village. However, the analysis …
