The present study examined whether University students who learned English as a second language differed from English monolingual students on their ability to detect inconsistent content in short informational texts about animals. Adults completed a self-paced reading task, performed text recalls, and completed a True/False test. Half of the texts contained information in the 5th sentence that contradicted the 2nd sentence’s information (inconsistent condition). The other half did not contain any contradictions (consistent condition). Participants also completed language and cognitive tasks as individual differences measures. Results revealed a significant interaction between language group and consistency, wherein monolingual adults spent more …

Plurilingualism In The Fsl Classroom And Beyond, Rachel L. Wohlgemut
Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference
In Canada, there are 269 different languages that are spoken daily (Statistics Canada, 2016). So why should we limit ourselves to French and English, when we have a multitude of other languages to explore? Here is where plurilingualism comes in.

It “aims for transfer of knowledge and skills across languages” (Cummins, 2005). In my presentation, I will explain how teachers can use plurilingualism to the benefit of teachers and their learners alike through digital identity texts. I …

Governance In Post-Secondary Institutions, Kyla Johnson
Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference
The concept of collegial governance is well understood in the post-secondary sector. The basic premise of this is that colleagues make decisions collectively for the benefit of the unit. While collegial governance does aim for consensus, unanimity is not necessary the outcome. The organizational structure of a university is a mediating factor in terms of collegial governance. This research will explore governance structures, specifically in Faculties of Education across Canada. Some comparative analysis will also be undertaken with relevant jurisdictions (i.e., US.) This was done through data collection and conducting a literature review in the area’s collegial governance and governance …
