Effects of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning on Young Learners’Linguistic Skills

Mobile-assisted language learning(MALL)has been regarded as an excellent tool in the field of language acquisition as modern technology develops.The popularity of using mobile devices in education makes it possible for people to learn languages through platforms like tablets and smartphones from anywhere and at any time.However,the application of MALL in a collaborative student-centered environment has received comparatively little attention.Since spoken fluency and vocabulary size are the two crucial components of language proficiency,this study aims to investigate if young learners can improve their native language level through learning online beyond the classroom.The quantitative data reveal that MALL does make a difference in students’linguistic skills.The results show that the incorporation of mobile applications into language learning could better help learners achieve the learning outcomes and improve their communication skills than simply using conventional methods.In addition,the data of the questionnaire exposed some issues that need to be continuously improved.The viable suggestions are also discussed to share ideas about building a more sustainable learning environment in a data-driven age.

Exploration of Children's Language Acquisition and Teaching Based on Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development

This paper explores children's language acquisition process and its application in educational practice based on Piaget's theory of cognitive development.Piaget's theory emphasizes that children's cognitive abilities develop progressively through different stages,from sensorimotor to concrete operational stages.Children's language acquisition progresses from simple to complex and from concrete to abstract during these stages.The paper integrates theoretical discussions on how to design effective language teaching strategies according to children's cognitive development characteristics to promote their language proficiency and overall cognitive development.

新疆少数民族幼儿国家通用语言词汇能力发展的预测因素研究

学前阶段是儿童语言能力发展的关键时期。这一阶段幼儿的词汇能力是义务教育阶段语言能力发展的基础和前提。本文对新疆少数民族幼儿国家通用语言词汇能力状况及其发展的预测因素展开实证研究,为引导幼儿词汇能力发展提供参考建议。研究发现:新疆少数民族幼儿的词汇表达能力优于理解能力;小班和中班的幼儿词汇能力发展速度较快;词汇习得遵循儿童语言发展的顺序性特征,但精确性不足;幼儿年龄段、师幼互动质量、母亲学历、父母职业、家庭主要看护人、电子媒介使用频次、家庭月收入等因素能有效预测少数民族幼儿的国家通用语言词汇能力。

The Application of TBL Using Role Play to Introduce Vocabulary in China's Private Language School

A specific application of task-based learning in teaching vocabulary to young learners and a complete task cycle using role play to present vocabulary in China's private language school would be described in the study. The participants aged between 7 and 9 are thought to be starters according to their language competence in Common European Framework of Reference for language. The rationale for stages in the task cycle will be fully explored with reference to Piaget and Vygotsky's theory in teaching young learners. The advantages of the adoption of TBL with young learners will be illustrated and some possible problems in implementing TBL in China, a representative country of Confucian-heritage culture would also be discussed in the paper. The study indicates that young learners in China are quite welcome this new approach in their English classes, but the targeted learners' age and background information need to be taken into consideration when actually implement this approach.

语言及视空间异常检测在中青年2型糖尿病认知功能障碍预测中的应用价值

目的观察语言及视空间异常检测在中青年2型糖尿病认知功能障碍预测中的应用价值。方法研究方法为前瞻性分析,观察对象为2022年1月至2023年6月沧州市人民医院收治入院的80例中青年2型糖尿病患者,将蒙特利尔认知评估量表(MoCA)筛查结果作为分组依据,将糖尿病合并认知功能障碍与单纯糖尿病患者分别纳入观察组(<26分,n=47)与对照组(≥26分,n=33)。记录两组受试者的性别、年龄、体重指数、血压(收缩压、舒张压)水平、文化程度、病程、合并疾病[冠心病、高血压、脑卒中、阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征(OSAHS)]。检测并比较两组患者的MoCA评分、视空间及语言能力评分,分析其与中青年2型糖尿病认知功能障碍的关联性。结果两组的年龄、体重指数、文化程度、病程、合并OSAHS患者比率比较,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组患者MoCA评分各项目评分及总分均明显低于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组患者视空间及语言能力评分均明显低于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。Pearson相关系数分析发现,MoCA评分与视空间、阅读、书写、听理解、复述、语言能力总分均呈正相关(r=0.840、0.849、0.859、0.857、0.867、0.892,P<0.05)。以MoCA量表评分结果为自变量,分别以视空间评分、语言功能总评分作为因变量,进行逐步回归分析,视空间与语言功能评分对MoCA量表总分具有显著的正向预测作用(P<0.05)。结论中青年2型糖尿病患者认知功能受年龄、文化程度、病程及OSAHS的影响;且语言及视空间异常检测可作为正向预测中青年2型糖尿病认知功能受损的重要工具,具有较高临床价值。

Kindergarten Teachers’Language Modeling Behaviors in Daily Activities and Free Play

Teachers’language modeling behaviors,including frequent conversation,open-ended questions,repetition and extension,self-and parallel talks,and advanced language,have significantly impacted young children’s language learning and development.This study examined 60 classrooms from 20 kindergartens in Guangzhou,China,and analyzed 62 films of daily activities and 57 videos of free play.It aims to address the research gap in existing research that pays little attention to teachers’language modeling behaviors in daily activities and free play.The results indicate that the more frequent teachers’language modeling behaviors,the larger the vocabulary young children use and the better their performance in lexical richness.However,such behaviors in daily activities and free play are infrequent and superficial,failing to guide young children’s language development effectively.To optimize teachers’language modeling behaviors in daily activities and free play,they are expected to establish positive emotional bonds with young children in a kind and respectful manner and receive training.Teachers are also encouraged to frequently communicate and engage in dialogues with young children,create contexts that facilitate the use of language,increase the frequency of stimuli for vocabulary learning,and guide and encourage young children’s advanced language.

中青年2型糖尿病患者认知障碍与语言及视空间异常的关系

目的 探讨中青年2型糖尿病(diabetes mellitus type 2,T2DM)患者认知障碍与语言及视空间异常的关系。方法 选取2020年10月至2021年10月在河北省沧州市人民医院就诊的124例中青年T2DM患者作为研究对象,按照有无认知障碍进行分组,将糖尿病合并认知障碍者纳入观察组[蒙特利尔认知量表(Montreal Cognitive Assessment,MoCA)评分<26分],单纯糖尿病者纳入对照组(MoCA评分≥26分),各62例。比较2组的执行功能[词汇流畅性测验、斯特鲁普色词测验(Stroop color word test,CWT)、数字颜色连线测验(trail making test,TMT)]、视空间能力、语言能力评分(阅读能力、书写能力、听理解能力、复述能力)。采用皮尔逊相关系数分析MoCA评分与空腹血糖、餐后2 h血糖的相关性;采用分层回归模型分析执行功能、语言能力与认知功能的关系;采用Logistic回归模型分析视空间能力与认知功能的关系。结果 观察组的词汇流畅性测验、CWT正确数低于对照组,而CWT耗时数、TMT-A耗时、TMT-B耗时数高于对照组(P<0.05)。观察组的视空间能力评分、语言能力评分低于对照组(P<0.05)。皮尔逊相关系数分析显示,MoCA评分与入组空腹血糖、入组餐后2 h血糖呈相关(分别r=-0.366、-0.338,均P<0.001)。分层回归分析显示,词汇流畅性测验、CWT正确数、阅读能力、书写能力对MoCA评分产生显著的正向影响(P<0.001),TMT-A耗时数、TMT-B耗时数对MoCA评分产生显著的负向影响(P<0.001)。Logistic回归模型分析显示,视空间能力评分为影响T2DM患者认知功能的独立危险因素(P<0.05)。结论 对中青年T2DM患者语言能力和视觉空间能力的动态观察可为识别患者的认知障碍提供依据。
