Factors Affecting Language Learning StrategiesRiduan Huda
There are a host of factors which appear to influence the use of language learning strategies by language learners. These factors may be sociocultural, situational or related to the personality of the language learner. Some factors are said to affect the type of learning strategy used by the language learner, whilst other factors are said to affect frequency of use of particular learning strategies. In this presentation. I will describe only five factors affecting language learning strategies.
The Effect of CALL on VocabularyLearning and Reading Comprehension of Iranian...iosrjce
This study aimed at investigating the effect of a computerized program on developing vocabulary and
reading comprehension of Iranian EFL learners. For this aim, the researcher chose a representative sample of
sixty first grade female high school students in Bushehr, south of Iran. The participants were divided into two
equivalent groups and each group consisted of 30 students. The researcher used three instruments: 1) an
achievement test for reading comprehension 2) vocabulary test 3) a computerized program for vocabulary and
reading texts included in the English book 1 of high school. The results of the study revealed that the
computerized program was effective to develop the vocabulary and reading comprehension skills for first
grade high school students. In the light of these findings, the researcher recommends that EFL Iranian teachers
should use CALL as a tool for enhancing students' vocabulary and reading comprehension in particular and
learning the language in general.
This study focuses on the listening anxiety experienced by teacher candidates (TCs) in Iran and Turkey. Using different data collection methods, including two questionnaires, listening test, and semi-structured interviews, this study tried to investigate the factors behind Foreign Language Listening Anxiety (FLLA) among Iranian teacher candidates (TCs). The participants of the study in Iran context were 29 teacher candidates studying at BA level in English Language Teaching. All of the participants were asked to complete these two questionnaires with the background information regarding their age, gender, years of language study. The participants’ answers to FLLAS and FLCAS were analyzed with spss to obtain frequencies and percentages. The results were compared to the same study by Bekleyen. The findings revealed that Iranian TCs experienced a high level of FLLA compared to Turkish TCs and showed a significant positive correlation between FLLA and FLCA, which means that teacher candidates with higher levels of language anxiety tended to have higher levels of listening anxiety. In addition, interview data suggested that Iranian and Turkish participants’ FLLA mostly originated from the same source: inadequacy of past education in listening skill. Furthermore, practice was the most frequent strategy used by participants in these two countries to overcome this kind of anxiety.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Learner Analysis
Introduction
The targeted group for my unit of instruction consists of sixth grade
students at Glynn Middle School in Brunswick, Georgia. This is a
heterogeneous group comprised of forty-five students total (see Table
1.1); there are 24 boys
and 21 girls. The students’
ethnicities and cultural
backgrounds vary: 1
Asian, 1 Multi-Ethnic, 2
Hispanic, 9 African
Americans, and 32
Caucasians. The students’
ages range between 11-13
years old.
All of these students are
taking part in a Computer
Applications course, which
has been split into two classes conducted by Mrs. Lewis.
Information about these learners was obtained through interviews with
the teacher. In the interview with Mrs. Lewis, I was able to determine
some of the needs and accommodations of students. Out of the forty-
five students, ten of these students have been diagnosed with having
special needs or
disabilities (see table
1.2). In Class 1, one
student has an auditory
processing and expressive
language disorder; three
students have been
diagnosed with having
Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder
(ADHD), in addition, one
of these students also has
Obsessive Compulsive
Disorder (OCD); one
student is an English

Speaker of Other Languages (ESOL); and one student has a Specific
Learning Disability (SLD).
In Class 2, one student has vision impairments; one student has
ADHD; one student has a Mild Intellectual Disability and Speech
Impairment (SI), and one student has SI and SLD.
As stated in the Executive Summary for Glynn Middle School,
“Special education and English Speakers of Other Languages are
served through a collaborative model. GMS also has classrooms
which serve students who are mildly intellectually disable, and
these students receive a portion of their instruction in a self-
contained setting but also in inclusion settings in the areas of
science and social studies (Blackstone, 2014).”
This information would help me in the creation of my unit of
instruction.
Entry Skills and Prior Knowledge
The skills and prior knowledge of the students was obtained through
observation and interviews. Some of the skills are but not limited to:
Able to log onto a computer
Typing, although not proficient
Basic search engine use
Know how to use mouse and keyboard
Various aspects of Internet Safety and Digital Citizenship
Here I must state that during my time of interview and observation,
Mrs. Lewis was showing her students videos about some aspects of
digital citizenship such as cyberbullying. She welcomed any additional
lessons that I could provide to her students because as she stated,
“It doesn’t hurt for the students to hear this information over
and over. Any topic you choose would be beneficial because
they [the students] need to learn and understand these
concepts. They do not realize how important this information is
(personal communication, February 4, 2016).”
Attitudes toward Content and General Learning Preferences
Through observation and student/teacher interaction, the learners
seemed to show a preference for hands-on activities in which they
could utilize their computers. The students enjoyed seeing the
Brainpop videos that were shown, and attempting to answer the

quizzes at the end of each video as a class. The students also were
observed to enjoy fast-paced, colorful games, such as the typing
games they completed in the class.
As for attitudes toward the content, through observation a lot of the
students seemed bored with the topics. When class time was over,
students did not waste any time in getting out of the classroom. So as
to further determine the knowledge of the students and to help guide
my choice of digital citizenship topic, an evaluation of the students
technology use will be conducted.
