This document discusses cognitive factors that influence second language learning. It identifies two main categories of internal factors - affective factors like motivation, anxiety, and attitudes; and cognitive factors like intelligence, language aptitude, and learning strategies. Language aptitude includes abilities like identifying sounds, understanding grammar, and memorizing words. Successful language learners employ a variety of learning strategies and teachers can help learners develop strategies that fit their strengths. Individual differences in these factors contribute to differences in how quickly or successfully students learn a new language.

Sociolinguistics and Language TeachingSheng Nuesca
Language teaching is connected with sociolinguistics in many ways. Different social factors affect language teaching and language learning.
Social factors such as situation, context, and social setting that has roles in language teaching. It describes the main factors which influence linguistic choices and explains how well contemporary teaching can take account of them.
Second Language Acquisition by David NunanParth Bhatt
The term second language acquisition (SLA) refers to the processes through which someone acquires one or more second or foreign languages. SLA researchers look at acquisition in naturalistic contexts (where learners pick up the language informally through interacting in the language) and in classroom settings. Researchers are interested in both product (the language used by learners at different stages in the acquisition process) and process (the mental process and
environmental factors that influence the acquisition process). In this chapter I trace the development of SLA from its origins in contrastive analysis. This is followed by a selective review of
research, focusing on product-oriented studies of stages that learners pass through as they acquire another language, as well as investigations into the processes underlying acquisition. The practical implications of research are then discussed, followed by a review of current and future trends and directions.

In second or foreign language learning, attitudinal factors were one of the key factors that determine language success and achievement. In Indonesia, foreign language (English) has been taught since elementary school, however research showed most Indonesian language learners in English showed unsatisfactorily result. This research aimed at disclosing the students’ attitudinal factors in learning foreign language by exploring their first experience in learning foreign language. This qualitative study employed exploratory case study design to interview students’ attitudinal factors by exploring the students past experience at first time learning foreign language. These students were from different education unit background when they were in elementary school. This study applied thematic analysis to interpret and analyze the data. The findings showed in case of attitudinal factors were categorized into three components that were cognitive, affective, and behavior. In case of cognitive and affective components, those who had good experiences felt happy in their first experience in foreign language and the vice versa. However, both were having similar learning behavior when they serve as an English teacher, they adopted particular learning behavior that was able to make students enjoy the foreign language learning.

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.
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.

Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

1. COGNITIVE FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE
SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNING

2. INTRODUCTION
When learning a second language, some students progress rapidly
while others struggle and make slower progress. Some learners never
quite achieve complete command of a second language. There are
some individual characteristics that make some learners more
successful than others. Our aim is to discuss these internal
characteristics and perhaps see which of these seems most likely to be
associated with success in second language learning.
3. INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES
Social psychologists have argued that individual differences between
learners is the most common factor that effect development of
language. Even when following a common developmental route the
degree of success learners achieved by each learner is always different
from each other, and this is due to differences in each individual.
4. LANGUAGE LEARNING FACTORS
There are a number of factors that influence someone's
success at mastering a new language. Internal factors that
affect the learning of a second language are those which
stem from the learner's own mind. Some students learn a
new language more quickly and easily than others. Clearly,
some language learners are successful by sheer
determination, hard work and persistence.
5. HOWEVER…
However there are other factors that influence success that are mostly
beyond the control of the learner. These factors can be broadly
categorized as internal and external. It is the interplay between these
two factors that determines the speed and facility with which the new
language is learned.
6. AFFECTIVE FACTORS • COGNITIVE FACTORS
Gardner and Macintyre (1992, 1883) have divided these internal
factors into two groups: AFFECTIVE FACTORS and COGNITIVE
FACTORS.
7. AFFECTIVE FACTORS INCLUDE…
the learner's attitude to the learning process
Anxiety in language-learning
personality
Social and cultural attitudes such as gender roles and community views
toward language learning
Individual attitude towards the second language
Individual Motivation towards learning a second language
willingness to communicate.
9. INTELLIGENCE
Intelligence refers to mental abilities that are measured by an IQ test.
Intelligence may be a strong factor when it comes to learning that
involves language analysis and rules learning. On the other hand it
may play a less important role in language learning that focuses more
on communication and interaction. It is common observation that
students with good intelligence are able to do well in second language
learning at least in formal classrooms. It is important to keep in mind
that intelligence is complex individual trait and a person may have
many kinds of abilities and strengths.
10. APTITUDE FOR LANGUAGE LEARNING
Aptitude refers to potential for achievements. Language aptitude is a
very effective tool for second language learning, an aptitude test is
designed to make a prediction about an individual future
achievements.
11. APTITUDE
Aptitude for language learning usually composed of four different types of
activities:
1) The ability to identify and memorize new sounds.
2) The ability to understand function of particular words in sentences.
3) The ability to figure out grammatical rules from language samples.
4) The ability to memorize new words.
Successful language learners are not necessarily strong in all of components of
aptitude. Some learners may have a strong memory but only an average ability to
figure out grammatical rules. Learners do not all share the same aptitudes (Harley
and Hart, 1997).
12. LANGUAGE LEARNING STRATEGIES
Strategies are the implications that we apply to learning, it has different levels.
Those who are successful in second language learning have useful strategies, like:
planning, monitoring, rehearsal, organization, etc.
Learners who are highly motivated to learn a language will use a variety of
strategies. The learner’s preference for learning, whether due to their learning
styles or to their beliefs about how language are learned, will influence the kind of
strategies or implications they choose to learn new material. The more proficient
learners employ strategies that are different from those used by the less
proficient.
13. IMPLICATIONS FOR TEACHING
Teachers can select appropriate teaching approaches and activities
based on eacher learner’s intelligence and estimated aptitude to
accommodate their differences and to create a better learning
environment.
Teachers can use information about preference for learning to help
learners to learn better learning strategies and thus develop greater
flexibility in their second language learning.
14. CONCLUSION
Individual differences in intelligence, aptitude, and learning strategies have
been found to be important factors that contribute to success in learning. It
remains difficult to make precise predictions about how a specific individual
characteristic influences success as a language learner, because research
results have not been entirely satisfactory, perhaps because of lack of clear
methods for measuring individual characteristics or perhaps because of the
complex interaction of those characteristics.
