  • Vietnamese higher education instructors’ positioning toward student-oriented teaching

    Duong Thi Ngoc Ngan, Maria Hercz et al.ARTICLEJournal of Further and Higher…2026

    The conceptions of teaching held by higher education instructors have been a long-standing focus of research. However, the existing discourse has primarily centred around findings that align strictly with either completely teacher–centred or entirely learner–centred categories. This study aims to address this gap by drawing on Kember’s conceptualisation of intermediate teaching conceptions to examine how a cohort of Vietnamese instructors situate…

  • A Scoping Review of Research on Teachers' Mindsets in English Language Teaching Contexts

    Open AccessNguyen Trong Nguyen, Van-Loi NguyenARTICLEEuropean Journal of Education2026

    Mindset research has contributed to a growing body of literature in English language education, especially research on teachers' mindsets in recent years. Despite this, a comprehensive view to advance this line of research is lacking. This scoping review aims to map past research on teachers' mindsets in English language teaching contexts, identify gaps, and provide future research directions. Following PRISMA guidelines, a search query was appli…

  • Fostering communication willingness in L2 classrooms

    Open AccessVan-Loi Nguyen, Quoc-Viet Hoang et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Educational Research2026

    As willingness to communicate (WTC) is a critical factor affecting second language (L2) learning, several studies have proposed strategies for fostering students’ WTC in L2 classrooms. However, limited research has examined students’ preferences for such strategies, considering their WTC levels. This study, conducted in a suburban setting of Vietnam, aims to fill the gap. A questionnaire was completed by 430 Vietnamese EFL students from three sub…

  • Context Knowledge and TPACK

    Van-Loi Nguyen, Thanh Duc Nguyen et al.ARTICLEThe Educational Forum2026

    Contextual knowledge is crucial for teachers in integrating technology into teaching. Drawing on the Ecological Systems perspective, this study examined how a self-constructed contextual knowledge cluster correlates with technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). Factor analysis and canonical correlation analysis of a survey on 136 Vietnamese EFL teachers indicated that contextual knowledge is a TPACK subdomain, and that teachers’ abili…

  • A review of the idiodynamic method in second language learning and teaching research

    Open AccessQuoc Viet Hoang, Van-Loi Nguyen et al.ARTICLEAustralian Review of Applied…2026

    Research on Second Language (L2) teaching and learning has increasingly acknowledged that key psychological and linguistic processes fluctuate over time rather than unfold as stable traits. The Idiodynamic Method (IDM) was developed to capture such moment-to-moment variability, yet its applications remain conceptually scattered and methodologically uneven. This review presents a PRISMA-guided narrative synthesis of 24 IDM studies to examine the c…

  • Challenges and Sustained Motivation in Producing Speaking E-Portfolios

    Open AccessVan-Loi Nguyen, Tran Ngoc Thao et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Educational Research2025

    Technology has innovated second language teaching by offering affordances that support and enhance learning. Simultaneously it presents challenges that may affect learners’ motivation. Understanding this is essential for enhancing foreign language teaching practices. This mixed-methods study investigates the challenges and motivation of Vietnamese high-school EFL students while engaging in speaking e-portfolios on the Padlet platform over three p…
