This document discusses factors that affect language learning strategy use. It identifies several key factors based on previous research, including gender, proficiency level, motivation, experiences learning language, and learning styles. Gender may influence strategy use, though some studies have found no significant difference. Higher proficiency is associated with greater use of both direct and indirect strategies. Motivation, particularly instrumental and integrative motivation, impacts strategy choice. More experience learning a language, such as time spent studying abroad, can also influence strategy use. Individual learning style preferences may play a role in determining strategy selection.

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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. Introduction
• Language learning strategy use is one of the most
important factors in learning a language
• Shen (2005) revealed that selecting appropriate
strategies could enhance learner’s performance of
second language learning
• Oxford (1989) suggested that the variables that
seem to influence language learning strategy choice
include age, sex, attitudes, motivation, language
learning goals, motivational orientation, learning
style, aptitude, career orientation, national
origin, language teaching methods and task
requirements.
4. Gender
• Gender is one of the factor that influences the use
of language learning strategies (Khamkhien, 2010)
• Hong-Nam and Leavell (2006), for
example, investigated learning strategy use of 55
students learning English as a second language
(ESL) and they claimed that female students
engaged in strategy use more frequently than
males, where these female students preferred to
use Social and Metacognitive strategies the most
and Memory strategies the least, while males
favored the use of Metacognitive and
Compensation strategies the most and Affective
strategies the least.
5. • Nonetheless, other studies pointed out that
gender might not be one of key variables
affecting the choices of language learning
strategies. For example, Griffiths (2003)
investigated the relationship between course
level and frequency of language learning
strategies used by 114 male students and 234
females. Based on the study conducted, there
was no statistically significant differences
according to either gender or age with strategy
use.
6. Motivation
• According to Gardner (1985), motivation and
attitudes are the primary sources contributing to
individual language learning
• Oxford and Nyikos (1989) indicate that the learners
with high motivation to learn a language will likely
use a variety of strategies
• Tamada (1996) in his study claimed that
instrumental and integrative motivation had
significant effect on the choice of LLS
• Stoffa et al. (2011) in their study involving Korean
immigrant college students, found that there was a
significant relationship between motivation and
direct LLS
7. Level of Proficiency
• High level of proficiency is associated with the increase
use of both direct and indirect LLS (Park 1997, Chen
2002)
• Peacock and Ho (2003) asserted that there was a linear
and significant correlations between proficiency level and
strategy use in a study involving university students in
Hong Kong, and based on this study, cognitive and
metacognitive strategies have high correlation with
students’ proficiency level
• Rahimi et al. 2008 claimed that proficiency level is one of
the strongest predictors of LLS among Iranian learners
• Radwan (2011) – proficient students used more overall
strategies but significantly more cognitive, metacognitive
and affective strategies compared to less proficient
students
8. Experiences in learning a language
• a small number of studies have been carried out
investigating the relationship between the
experience of English study and language strategy
use
• Purdie and Oliver (1999) reported the language
learning strategies used by bilingual school-aged
children coming from three main cultural groups:
Asian (predominantly Vietnamese or Chinese dialect
speakers), European (children who spoke Greek
and those who identified them-selves as speakers of
Macedonian), and speakers of Arabic. The results
showed students who had been in Australia for a
longer period of time (3 or less years and 4 or more)
obtained significantly higher mean scores for
Cognitive strategies and for Memory strategies
9. • Opper, Teichler, and Carlson’s (1990)
comprehensive study investigating studying
abroad programs in Europe and The United
States. As a result of their study, studying
abroad is deemed to have an influence on
students’ thought and learning style, especially
in their actual ability in language learning.
10. Learning style preferences
• An individual’s learning style preferences plays a
role in determining the use of LLS
• Extroverts prefer to use social strategies , introverts
use more metacognitive strategies (Ehrman &
Oxford 1990)
• However, Rahimi et al (2008) found no significant
difference between learning style and the use of LLS
in a study involving Iranian learners
• Alrieza and Abdullah (2010) claimed that there were
qualitatively significant differences between Iranian
EFL learners perceptual learning style preferences
and the use of LLS
