The results revealed that vocabulary, grammar, and structure were the most challenging aspects at the sentence level for students.

Trying To Be Funny: A Conversation Analysis Of Humor In Efl University Students’ Role-Plays, Siriprapa Srithep, Patharaorn Patharakorn

PASAA

Through the lens of conversational analysis (CA), humor or funniness is not an inherent property of a message, nor an internal state of any social action, but as something interactionally achieved (Glenn, 2003). Teachers are often encouraged to utilize humor to reduce anxiety, lower affective filters, and make language more “memorable” (Bell, 2005; Tarone, 2000; Ziyaeemehr et al., 2011). In the current research endeavor, we focused on an activity called “Drama and Creativity,” an extracurricular activity which is offered to firstyear undergraduate students at a public university in Thailand. During the activity, students worked in groups of three to four …

Analyzing Self-Praise Strategies In Political Resignation Speeches Of Female Heads Of The Government From Australia, England, New Zealand, And Scotland: A Multimodal Discourse Analysis, Umparin Boonsinsuk, Pattrawut Charoenroop

PASAA

While males have predominantly held leadership positions in national-level parliaments, the rising visibility of females as heads of government, despite their underrepresentation, is a significant trend. This study investigated the political resignation speeches of four female leaders in national parliaments: Australia, England, New Zealand, and Scotland. Examining their speeches revealed a strategic utilization of self-praise to construct their identity as effective leaders. A comparative analysis of these speeches highlighted distinct self-praise strategies employed. These speakers interacted with varied levels of familiarity with their audience influencing their self-praise strategies. Addressing familiar individuals prompted the use of diverse strategies, notably emphasizing direct …


Lexical Level In English Major Efl Students’ Writing: A Learner Corpus Study, Pong-Ampai Kongcharoen, Jiraporn Dhanarattigann, Tirote Thongnuan Jan 2024

Lexical Level In English Major Efl Students’ Writing: A Learner Corpus Study, Pong-Ampai Kongcharoen, Jiraporn Dhanarattigann, Tirote Thongnuan

PASAA

This study aimed to investigate the lexical competence of English-major EFL students. The learner corpus comprised 552 pieces of writing by sophomore English majors during five academic years between 2017 and 2021, containing 190,506 words in total. The results from VocabProfile program showed that these students used words contained in the academic word list (AWL) at lower rates than what has been suggested by experts. This is probably because they were in their second year studying their first writing course. With less exposure to higherlevel English, they might not have developed an advanced vocabulary repertoire. However, when considering the AWL …

Effects Of Data-Driven Learning On Writing Complexity, Accuracy, And Fluency (Caf) Of Thai Efl Learners, Punyapa Boontam, Supakorn Phoocharoensil

PASAA

In recent years, there has been growing interest in the use of data-driven learning (DDL) in L2 writing instruction. This paper examined whether and to what extent DDL activities could enhance the writing complexity, accuracy, and fluency (CAF) of 30 Thai EFL learners. The presentation of DDL in this study was hands-on concordancing with the assistance of the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA). The study was held in the context of an English writing workshop focusing on opinion paragraphs, divided into two phases: four weeks for the patternhunting activities and two weeks for the pattern-refining activities. Applying the CAF …

The Role Of Morphological Awareness And Background Knowledge In Turkish Efl Learners’ Writing Ability, Peri Aslan

Morphological awareness is the metalinguistic realization that words consist of meaningful roots and affixes that can be isolated and manipulated. Learners at different proficiency levels use various forms of background knowledge such as cultural knowledge, technical knowledge, religious knowledge, vocabulary knowledge, and contextual visuals. The purpose of this research was to see whether morphological awareness and background knowledge affected the fluency and accuracy of Turkish EFL learners. The participants consisted of 80 Turkish EFL students. At first, participants were homogenized to select samples and eliminate outliers, then a pretest was used to assess participants’ writing fluency and accuracy prior to …

The Effects Of Flipped Learning Integrated With Role-Play On Efl Business English Undergraduates’ Oral Communication Performance, Pallapa Lertcharoenwanich, Kittitouch Soontornwipast

PASAA

English oral communication becomes essential, especially for business English students since their future careers require a good command of English. The purposes of this study were to determine if the integration of flipped learning and three types of role-plays (i.e., scripted, semi-scripted, and non-scripted) could enhance English oral communication performance of business English students and to investigate the students’ perceptions towards the approach. This quasi-experimental mixed-methods research with a two-group pre-test-post-test design was conducted with 68 fourth-year business English undergraduates at a public university in Thailand. The participants were divided into a control group (n = 38) and an experimental …


Integrating Reflective Practice Into Undergraduate Teacher Education Programmes In Elt: A No-Lose Deal For Thai University, Andrzej Cirocki, Pariwat Imsa-Ard Jan 2024

Integrating Reflective Practice Into Undergraduate Teacher Education Programmes In Elt: A No-Lose Deal For Thai University, Andrzej Cirocki, Pariwat Imsa-Ard

PASAA

The concept of reflection is probably as old as educational discourse itself. It is an inextricable element of teaching and learning that enables teachers to identify and solve problems related to their teaching practice or learn more about various aspects of their profession. Therefore, to fully prepare reflective language practitioners, it is essential for reflection to be embedded in teacher education programmes in English Language Teaching (ELT). With this in mind, the current contribution begins by operationalising the concept of reflective practice and describing reflective practitioners. It then presents models of reflective teaching, synthesises previous research on reflective practice, and …
