A systematic literature review on word selection criteria in corpus-based wordlists development
The significance of academic word lists has consistently been underscored by scholars, particularly following the establishment of the AWL by Coxhead in 2000. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a systematic literature review on the criteria for word selection that are crucial in the process of developing word lists. This study systematically reviewed and analyzed the selection criteria used by scholars in the creation of word lists, particular…
The Language of AI and Human Poetry
This study conducts a lexicometric analysis to compare the lexical richness and diversity in poetry generated by AI models with that of human poets. Employing a robust dataset that includes 1,333 AI-generated poems and 517 human-authored poems across seven distinct poetic eras, six key lexical metrics—Maas Index, MTLD, MATTR, HD-D, Hapax Legomenon Ratio, and Lexical Density—were applied for comparative analysis. The lexical characteristics of the…
Aviation communication challenges and language training development
Having error-free communication in air-to-ground communication is somewhat nonsensical in real-life conditions. Multiple factors, external or internal, inevitably cause miscommunication or misunderstanding. During unprecedented situations, the ability to adapt and language competency becomes a significant factor in ensuring that communication between pilots and air traffic controllers can succeed. Aviation English falls under English for Specific…
Game-Based Learning in Teaching Grammar for Non-Native Speakers
The emergence of Industrial Revolution 4.0 targets challenging the norm and pushing boundaries. Hence, educational institutions are expected to embrace a few methods to adopt technology as part of their instructional strategies. The incorporation of technology can nurture students' motivation to learn English, particularly grammar. While game-based grammar learning provides motivation, enjoyment, and acquisition of grammar knowledge, trends in us…
The Use of Digital Annotation Tools in Improving Online Public Health Literacy among Youths
Understanding public health materials is important to enhance public health literacy, as the lack of comprehension can have negative repercussions for individuals, society, and the healthcare system. It is essential for youths to grasp fundamental health information because it equips them with the knowledge and ability to address the intricate health needs and challenges of modern society. This study was conducted to assess the reading comprehens…
Communication Competence in Pilot-Controller Interactions
Due to the exponential growth in the aviation industry, the number of non-native speaker pilots and air traffic controllers has significantly increased. Naturally, the interaction has become more challenging since the communication shifted to intercultural communication within a lingua franca setting. This study identifies and discusses the repair and accommodation strategies pilots and air traffic controllers use in their routine in-flight commu…
Diabetes in the News
This paper describes a study to evaluate the readability scores of Malaysian newspaper articles meant to create awareness of diabetes among the public. In contrast to patient-specific sources of information, mass media may potentially reach healthy people, thus preventing them from becoming part of the diabetes statistics. Articles published within a selected corpus from the years 2013 to 2018 and related to awareness regarding diabetes were samp…
The Use of Vocabulary Learning Strategies in an MMORPG Among Southeast Asian ESL Player
This paper describes a study on the Vocabulary Learning Strategies (VLS) used by players from Southeast Asia in an MMORPG called Final Fantasy XIV. The objective is to identify the strategies the players used and their opinions of the game as a platform to assist their vocabulary learning. Fifty players who met the requirements of the study were selected and a survey was administered via a questionnaire (Cronbach’s Alpha values 0.824 and 0.758). …
Metacognitive Online Reading and Navigational Strategies by Science and Technology University Students
Reading has taken a new dimension, where students in higher institutions are consistently required to read massive amounts of online materials to gain knowledge, complete tasks and assignments. Hence, the ability to read online effectively is becoming increasingly important, as students need to utilize, understand and respond to online materials. However, most university undergraduates lack the ability to read effectively and critically. Therefor…
