ejall: A Pathfinder

This is a computer-generated pathfinder created against the Distant Reader study called ejall.

Each Distant Reader study carrel is composed of many individual items. Each item is bibliographically described with author, title, date, summary, and keyword values. Below is a list of the items' most signficant keywords as well as lists of the items themselves. Purpusing the content of this pathfinder provides the student, researcher, or scholar with one way to get their heads around the scope of the carrel. The keywords include:

Learning; Una; Students; English; Teaching; Del; Use; Learners; Della; Non; Los; Spanish; Classroom; Studies; Chapter

Depending on how this pathfinder was created, many of the bibliographic sections will include elaborations on the meaning(s) of the given keywords. These elaborations were generated by feeding the items' summaries to a large langauge model and asking the model to address the question, "What is X?", where "X" is the keyword. The result will be a few sentences of elaboration. Be forewarned. The elaborations are often plausible, but they should not be take as truth. Instead, they should be taken as points for consideration.

• Reconsidering language teaching through a focus on humor by Bell, Nancy; Pomerantz, Anne (2014) - Specifically, we present recent conceptions of language and of communication, and discuss how, in light of these, humor and language play can be used to increase learners’ metalinguistic awareness and expand their communicative/interpretive repertoires. In this paper, we contribute to ongoing efforts to re-conceptualize language education in ways that make use of more robust (and less modernist) theories of language and communication.

• Communication as a strategic resource to promote Italian Institutes of Culture by Serragiotto, Graziano; Maugeri, Giuseppe (2015) - It would be unreasonable to overlook the potential that these resources can offer; therefore, drawing on their aim to network with and reach out to potential users, cultural organizations such as IICs should recognized the potential contribution of online communication to avoid falling behind with technological advancements. This represents an innovative approach to instruction and external communication.

• The risks and rewards of teaching with humour in Western Sydney: Adapting pedagogy to complex demographics by Hale, Adrian (2016) - This potentiality is extremely difficult to assess, but it is important to consider at this point that the potential for English language deficit, for UWS students, is quite high. However, once the failure rate is factored into the equation, there is some more corroborating evidence: at between 25-30% failure rate for all first years (a failure rate 5-10% above the national tertiary average), UWS students are clearly underprepared for the linguistic demands of university (Grebennikov & Skaines, 2008).

• The role of translanguaging in the multilingual turn: Driving philosophical and conceptual renewal in language education by Prada, Josh; Turnbull, Blake (2018) - A multilingual classroom with such an orientation would also incorporate Cook’s (2002) view of language learners as language users with multicompetence: a notion that helps us rethink the negative connotations associated with the deficiency of being a learner, as well as a shift of focus away from idealizing the native speaker as the target model of THE ROLE OF TRANSLANGUAGING IN THE MULTILINGUAL TURN E-JournALL 5(2) (2018), pp. 8-23 11 successful communicative competence. García and Li Wei (2014) emphasize that, regardless of context, language learners are not learning a separate language; instead, they are taking control of their own learning to appropriate and assimilate new languaging strategies and unique meaning-making resources.

• Introduction to the special issue: On the transgressive nature of translanguaging pedagogies by Prada, Josh; Nikula, Tarja (2018) - Their discussion of tensions and struggles involved remind us of challenges that transforming language practices can trigger, yet there are also obvious transgressive aspects through problematization of language and monoglossic views of multilingualism by teachers and their students alike. As translanguaging gains traction in language education, its political and ideological implications are becoming central considerations to researchers and practitioners.

• A holistic model for multilingualism in education by Duarte, Joana; Günther-van der Meij, Mirjam (2018) - Due to the complex language ecology of our research setting (Duarte & Günther-van der Meij, 2018), which derives both from an increase in different languages and from the tensions in promoting a regional minority language in education, a holistic model for multilingualism in education was developed in order to work with teachers in developing tailored interventions that tackle new needs in language education. Linking multilingual language learning to content knowledge across the curriculum supports higher understanding of teachers for the basic requirement of language education as transversal task.

• Translation in the language classroom: Multilingualism, diversity, collaboration by Panzarella, Gioia; Sinibaldi, Caterina (2018) - By engaging in translation activities as collaborative practices, language students can work within their zone of proximal development and draw on their collective knowledge to enhance their awareness of the forms and functions of language. However, recent surveys of the literature on language teaching reveal predominantly negative attitudes toward the use of translation as a pedagogical tool, mainly due to the notion that, when engaging in translation activities, learners are constrained by their native language and therefore unable to develop communicative fluency (Kelly & Bruen, 2014).

• Translanguaging practices in CLIL and non-CLIL biology lessons in Switzerland by Bieri, Aline S. (2018) - Translanguaging practices in CLIL and non-CLIL biology lessons in Switzerland ALINE S. BIERI*1 University of Basel Received 17 June 2018; received in revised form 18 October 2018; accepted 19 November 2018 ABSTRACT EN Studies on translanguaging in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) programmes have predominately focused on the use of the first language (L1) as a potential resource in CLIL lessons. Other studies on translanguaging in CLIL that focus on classroom data have revealed that translanguaging is not only a feature of many CLIL classrooms, but also that translanguaging practices do indeed serve various purposes such as facilitating content, managing the classroom, creating language awareness, or signalling alignment, to name just a few (see e.g. Gallagher & Colohan, 2017; Gierlinger, 2015; Moore & Nikula, 2016; Nikula & Moore, 2016; Paulsrud 2014, 2016; Toth 2018).

• Introduction to the Special Issue: Learners’ outcomes and effective strategies in early second language learning by Costa, Francesca; Pladevall-Ballester, Elisabet (2020) - As early second language learning is increasingly considered fundamental in children’s development and as early language learning programmes are encouraged both at institutional and societal levels, research has expanded in scope from a narrow focus on age to examine the interplay between variables affecting language learning. However,  linguistic  development  should  proceed  parallel   to  that  of  content  and  therefore,  if  content  and  language  are  properly  integrated  and  one  assists  the  other,  the   above-­‐mentioned  concern  should  not  arise.

• Humor in the teaching of writing: A microethnographic approach by Hempelmann, Christian F. (2016) - It also introduces humor as a motivational double-edged sword: Humor may enhance learning for some, but it is also a potential distraction or annoyance to others. Judging from experiences reported by Goodfleisch (2016) and my own readings, Morreall’s (2009), Comic Relief: A Comprehensive Philosophy of Humor might provide a better affordable introductory text.3 As expected, the honors students fared better than non-honors freshmen in terms of grasping many of the complex issues that are needed to explain humor.

• Pre-service teacher education: Observing senior teachers through the theoretical lens of Ellis’s principles of instructed language learning by Petrocelli, Emilia (2021) - The project moves around the framework that Rod Ellis proposed in 2010 on the relationship between Second Language Acquisition and Language Pedagogy and it argues the need for student teachers (STs) to take the role of classroom researchers during their learning process and carry out critical observations through a solid theoretical lens, such as the 10 principles for instructed language learning by Ellis (2005a, 2005b). The  outline  of   the  project   followed  the  framework  that  Professor  Rod  Ellis  (2010)  created  to  guide   the   relationship   between   SLA   and   language   pedagogy   (LP),   arguing   that   there   is   a   need   to   “design   and   implement  an  SLA  course  for  teachers  that  can  be  […]  investigated  empirically”  (p.  197).

• Focusing on derivational-driven cognate patterns to promote vocabulary acquisition in Spanish by Forcelini, Jamile; Kim, Doo Young (2024) - An integral aspect of this method is the explicit analysis of a word's grammatical classification, including its part of speech, thereby facilitating the decoding of the meaning of new cognate words in the second language (L2) through the utilization of previously acquired knowledge of cognate words in the first language (L1), exemplified by pairs such as education in English and educacio n in Spanish.

Conversational closings in teacher-student meetings in L1/L2 Italian] by Pagliara, Francesca (2025) - Qual è la sua struttura? - Da che cosa dipende la lunghezza delle CC nei PN e nei PNN? Nel presente studio risultano rilevanti le nozioni strutturali inerenti alle sequenze che costituiscono la sequenza di chiusura, ovvero la fase di pre-chiusura (PC), gli spazi di opportunità che qui vengono chiamati turni di transizione (TT) e lo scambio terminale (ST); salienti risultano anche le categorie di analisi, quali allineamento referenziale e al ruolo sociale. La distribuzione delle azioni su più turni permette di saggiare progressivamente la disponibilità dell’interlocutore a chiudere lo scambio o, mutatis mutandis, di veri^icare che non ci siano ulteriori argomenti di cui parlare, e in ultima analisi, ad evitare un commiato brusco.

Cambridge University Press. by Berchio, Giulia (2025) - Cita, a questo proposito, l’esempio di Rivers (2018), il quale afferma che le categorie estreme esistono solo nella mente di chi crede in queste BERCHIO E-JournALL, 12(2) (2025), pp. 84-89 86 distinzioni, e sottolinea come il proprio pensiero si trovi in contrasto con quest’ultimo: secondo Hiratsuka, infatti, appartenere alla categoria delle/dei parlanti non native/i dell’inglese permette in realtà di percepire in modo netto la distinzione tra le due categorie “native/i” vs “non native/i”, visibile già a partire dalla letteratura scientifica sul tema, dove è più folta la presenza di fonti sulle/sui parlanti native/i. Vengono sollevate, poi, altre criticità, in particolare relativamente alle strategie che le/i parlanti native/i metterebbero in atto per distogliere l’attenzione dal tema della discriminazione di parlanti non native/i dell’inglese negando, di fatto, l’esistenza di esigenze specifiche da parte di questa categoria e la difficoltà che essa incontra nell’ottenere un reale riconoscimento. . 84-89 88 dell’insegnamento delle lingue, alle e ai quali la ricerca, come rilevato dalla revisione della letteratura sul tema, non aveva finora dedicato uno spazio adeguato. Tuttavia, seppur l’autore sia riuscito a elicitare, da un lato, il loro malcontento nei confronti dell’egemonia del native-speakerism e, dall’altro, a individuare gli elementi che permetterebbero di raggiungere un riconoscimento maggiore (puntare di più sulla consapevolezza interculturale, sulla professionalizzazione delle e degli insegnanti e sul concetto di Global Englishes), rimane il dubbio relativo al se e al quanto tempestivamente l’augurio di un cambio di paradigma possa essere tradotto in azioni concrete.

• Using synchronous speech to facilitate acquisition of English rhythm: A small-­scale study by Banzina, Elina; Hewitt, Lynne E.; Dilley, Laura C. (2014) - Difference in speech rhythm acceptability ratings pre- and post-instruction on a scale from 0 to 100, indicating perceived improvement in speech rhythm in control and experimental groups. Synchronous speech involves teacher and learner speaking in unison continuously, which allows the L2 learner to learn rhythm implicitly and uninterruptedly, and provides rich auditory-visual input, ample motor speech practice and real-time feedback, thereby automatizing rhythm patterns.

• Understanding the inheritors: The perception of beginning level students toward their Spanish as a Heritage Language program by Vergara Wilson, Damián; Ibarra, Carlos Enrique (2015) - Beaudrie (2012) highlights two themes that surface in research on student perceptions: the foreign-language learning environment is not adequate or appropriate for SHL learner needs, and discrepancies exist between the expectations of SHL students and programmatic offerings. In the first major study to compare SHL student and teacher perceptions of instructional effectiveness, Beaudrie (2015) once again highlights the importance of student perspectives.

• Implementing concept-based instruction in the heritage language classroom: A pedagogical proposal by García, Próspero N. (2017) - His most recent work explores the implementation of concept-based teaching (C-BI) for L2 and heritage language development, the role of learner agency in the internalization of conceptual categories, and the role of verbalization and conscious conceptual manipulation in the conceptualization of grammatical categories. Although aspect has been found to be particularly troublesome for heritage language learners (Montrul, 2009; Silva-Corvalán, 1994), few studies have focused on teaching conceptual development of verbal aspect in the HL classroom.

• Writing in English in Italy – from ‘compositions’ to ‘academic writing’ by Nava, Andrea (2023) - However, beyond its reference to contextual constraints, this image of writing as an “indulgence” seems to be a suitable metaphor for the long journey that English writing instruction has undertaken in Italy over the last hundred years.

• Politeness strategies in complaints in Italian: A study on IFL learners and Italian native speakers by Marocchini, Eleonora (2017) - Together,  these  results  seem  to  suggest  that  it  is  easier  for  NNSs  to  be  native-­‐like  when  choosing  the   type   of   complaint   to   perform   than   when   deciding   how   to   express   judgement   and   how   to   downgrade   complaints  through  modification.   The  tendency  among  NSs  to  prefer  the  judgment-­‐only  type  of  complaint  also  confirms  Nuzzo’s  (2007)   analysis   of   a   corpus   of   Italian   L1,   where   65,4%   of   complaints   were   judgment-­‐only,   as   opposed   to   25,9%   judgment-­‐and-­‐request  cases,  and  just  a  8,7%  request-­‐only  cases  (p.  121),  which  in  this  study  were  used  even   less  (in  favor  of  the  combined  form).     Keywords: act; complaints; data; expression; italian; judgment; language; learners; modifiers; nnss; nss; nuzzo; participants; politeness; reparation; request; study; terms; type; use

• Humor, language, and pedagogy: An introduction to this special issue by Attardo, Salvatore (2016) - Despite much research on the role of humor in the L2 classroom (see Bell, 2017; Bell & Pomerantz, 2016 for reviews), the conclusion of several major meta-analyses of the field of humor and teaching (Martin, Preiss, Gayle, & Allen, 2006; Banas, Dunbar, Rodriguez, & Liu, 2011; McMorris, Boothroyd, & Pietrangelo, 1997) is that, as Bell and Pomerantz (2016) plaintively put it, “it has been difficult to connect the use of humor to increased learning” (p. 101). Banas et al. strike a marginally more optimistic note, concluding that the empirical evidence for the effects of humor on learning is considerably more mixed, with some scholars finding that humor enhances learning (. . .) and others finding no relationship between learning from humor” (2011, p. 131).

• Review: Gramling, David (2016). The invention of monolingualism. New York, New York: Bloomsbury Academic. by Bacon, Chris K. (2018) - This chapter grapples with the degree to which the increasingly popular “soft multilingualism” (Noorani, 2013), which has proven highly marketable in current world literature, actually disrupts literary monolingualism, or whether this trend merely reifies the concept of monolingualism by commodifying its opposition. Ellis (2006) reviewed scholarly literature on monolingualism, identifying three major representations: 1) Monolingualism as the “unmarked case,” or a norm against which multilingualism is set as the exception; 2) Monolingualism as a limitation on cognitive, communicative, social or vocational potential; 3) Monolingualism as a dangerous phenomenon with detrimental effects on social and educational policy.
